With the holidays comes compassion...

In the busy-ness of the Christmas season, it's easy to get stressed out and irritable. The cold weather is here, the economy's in the toilet, and everyone's rushing around in a panic because there are only x shopping days left till the 25th. Well today, in the midst of the holiday madness, while walking through Toronto's snootiest neighbourhood -Yorkville- I witnessed a very upscale, well dressed middle aged lady give a giant bag of warm clothes to a homeless man. Faith in humanity restored.

More wacky college fun

My anatomy professor treated us to her rendition of this song about cows the other day during lecture. I believe it's an Arrogant Worms song (thank you Google!):

I am cow, hear me moo
I weigh twice as much as you
And I look good on the barbecue
Yogurt, curd, cream cheese and butter
Made from liquid from my udder
I am cow, I am cow, hear me moo (moo)

I am cow, eating grass
Methane gas comes out my ass
And out my muzzle when I belch
Oh, the ozone layer is thinner
From the outcome of my dinner
I am cow, I am cow, I've got gas

I am cow, here I stand
Far and wide upon this land
And I am living everywhere
From B.C. to Newfoundland
You can squeeze my teats by hand
I am cow, I am cow, I am cow!
I am cow, I am cow, I am cow!
