Strange then that he would say he was wasted during March Madness. Are you sure? Maybe he was talking about his friends? Maybe he wasn't wasted on booze but on something else? I don't know. I don't think he would make a point of ordering a .5 beer and saying "I don't drink" if it wasn't true. But I don't even know the guy, so who knows?<BR/><BR/>SarahSarah Marchildonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17604609825576716332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646612.post-1114333962213651022005-04-24T02:12:00.000-07:002005-04-24T02:12:00.000-07:00After reading this entry days ago, one, tiny aspec...After reading this entry days ago, one, tiny aspect stuck in mind:<BR/><BR/><I>He ordered a .5 beer ("I don’t drink").</I><BR/><BR/>I'm assuming the "I don't drink." was something George said.<BR/><BR/>I can readily remember, on several occasions during The Hour, when George has made references to getting drunk. One time, he was talking about watching basketball during March Madness and said, by the second game, he was too wasted to enjoy the series.<BR/><BR/>If someone likes drinking, well, whatever. Not a big deal to me. The thing is, I keep reading everywhere how genuine and down to earth George is, yet these little things pop up to, kind of prove, maybe he's not so genuine. And this isn't the first contradiction I've come across.<BR/><BR/>Of course, if you were quoting yourself, then this comment is completely pointless. :)Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00494198731243639436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646612.post-1114309878848225392005-04-23T19:31:00.000-07:002005-04-23T19:31:00.000-07:00Geez...I don't check my blog for a whole day and I...Geez...I don't check my blog for a whole day and I come back to a controversy!<BR/><BR/>I don't think Bill was being condescending. Some of my readers are teenagers and I'll bet my 18-year-old sister doesn't know who Peter Gzowski was. Then again, I don't even really know who is reading this blog as it was primarily intended for friends and family back East (and out West) but there are a lot of people reading and I have no idea who they are, which is fun!<BR/><BR/>Let's not talk about the "romance" as there isn't one and if George reads this, I don't want him to think I'm some crazy obsessed stalker. Which, for the record, I'm not. I know you guys are just kidding ;)<BR/><BR/>I'll post the picture after work some time next week. I'm just glad no one saw me on Newsworld.<BR/><BR/>SarahSarah Marchildonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17604609825576716332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646612.post-1114289075242228582005-04-23T13:44:00.000-07:002005-04-23T13:44:00.000-07:00Sarah, LOOK at the controversy.

Anyone over 20 years old knows that the late Peter Gzowski was considered the voice of CBC Radio, even if they didn't know the name of his show was Morningside.<BR/><BR/>If any of them don't know and they are really that curious about anything you write here, I guarantee that they know how to use Google better than you and they didn't need to be prompted.<BR/><BR/>Being young doesn't mean being ignorant or stupid and it doesn't mean that they have to put up with subtle condescension.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646612.post-1114268928897060062005-04-23T08:08:00.000-07:002005-04-23T08:08:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646612.post-1114260450970269112005-04-23T05:47:00.000-07:002005-04-23T05:47:00.000-07:00What a great post, Sarah.
