  • Have fun man, I did when I lived there. It's a great city. It's been some years though, I wish I could tell you what clubs to hit on the Friday.

    As for what's going down, I think you got it covered pretty nicely.

    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    sweet! thank you! :)

    looks like it's either:

    Michael Haneke: Early Television Films
    Goethe Institut, 418 Sherbrooke est
    German-born Austrian Michael Haneke is one of the most important and polarizing contemporary European directors working today. Best known for his recent award-winning films The Piano Teacher (2001) and Hidden (2005), few outside of Germany and Austria have seen his early television work. For the first time in Canada, the Goethe-Institut Montreal presents six of his films made for German and Austrian television during the years 1976 – 1993 which have only recently been subtitled. Much of this early work is based on literature and deals with themes such as the post-World War II legacy, the loss of identity and repressive, bourgeois society.

    The first place, diner I ate was Nickels on St. Catherines! I loved it! Day's later, I found out it was run by Celion Dion! :eek: Not a fan, but loved her food! lol

    I love Montreal alot. It has the European passion that I love. Kinda like the love I have for Kalamata, Greece! :) I kinda wished I didn't drop out of French classes back in High School. :( Speaking Greek, English & taking on French, d'oh! Had to focus on my studies, which was alot those day's.

    I organized both Eddie Vedder Wishlist Foundation preparties last August there. It was awesome! Met old friends, met new friends. It was a great experience i'll never forget! :) Will be back there again next year for sure!

    Guess that's it for me here till Sunday!
    Take care & tty soon! :)
