Here at our house Sunday is all about a greasey breakfast and Vinyl Café on the CBC. Thing is the stories are really cheesey, heterosexist and caught in some 50s timewarp. But I still really enjoy them. Maybe it's my belly full of oatmeal pancakes, coffee, sausage and real maple syup.

In fact, yes, that's almost indefinitely the case.

Anyhow, afterwards was a really great piece of synchronicity (no, not The Police record) and musings into the quantum implications of being open to change in your life. A mere change in mindset helps cancer patients to get on with their lives. An openess to change shortens the trauma of upset in one's life and in fact allows it to happen. This makes me re-consider a lot of ways I live my life right now.

Or at least until my caffeine buzz wears off.

The Vinyl Café may be a bit of an anacronism but it's consistent. When I moved to Maine one of the first things I missed about Canada was the CBC. The television network offers true quality programming, even the Tim Hortons commercials were quality! The Radio network, in particular Radio 2, is unparalleled by any of the crap classical radio stations down here. WBACH (the classical station here in Portland) never plays an entire concerto, symphony or suite, the commercials are cheesy and their collection stops at Mendelssohn. One day I thought I heard some Holst on there and I think they thought they were being a bit daring.

NPR is, well, it's like listening to Radio One on ludes. It does have Garrison Keillor but he's certainly no match for Stuart McLean.

Greasy breakfast and Radio Two? works for me.
