BLOG TITLE EXPLAINED

Hmm... this is the weirdest-named Canadian blog that the Blogs Canada guy has seen lately.

If I need to explain the title, though I think I have before at some point, it's a quote from the old Sega Master System RPG Phantasy Star. I think, and I don't feel like looking it up right now, it's a quote you only get if you encounter the druid monk thingies in the deserts of the planet Motavia, and only if you choose to "TALK" to them rather than fight, foreshadowing the nut you need to get for the cat creature Myau to transform into that winged creature and fly to the castle in the sky (no, not Laputa). Anyhow, it's always been my and my brother's own personal "All your base are belong to us."

I'll also hazard a guess this is also one of the few Canadian blogs to have the George W. Bush reelection news headline thingie on it. Well, though I generally support Bush (as do some Canadians, like David Frum and Mark Steyn), I added that more as a subtle way of flipping the figurative bird at a few specific people, most of whom I won't name though I did dedicate it to Boondocks creator Aaron McGruder.

EDIT: To McGruder's credit, though, he seems to have put the "Condoleeza Rice needs a man" joke to bed for a while after two tiresome months. Maybe he saw my blog, 'ya never know.
