Mr. Harper , arrived in a motorcade, after traveling, literally, across the street from his official residence, 24 Sussex Drive."

Class! Class! Attention Class!
We have two new words to put into our "Polly Cy 101 Scribblers, today.
The first word is "P-r-o-r-o-g-ue". Prorogue.
Can someone tell the rest of the class what that means?
Johnny?
"It's when the Canadian Government's Hood Ornament decides to support - hence, is for, or 'pro' - some doorknob aka 'rogue'."
Very good Johnny, if a bit editorialized, exaggerated and, colourful,
"while the Dippers and the Ad-Libs got it up their arse end, "
Okay, Johnny that'll be fine, you can take your seat now.
So, yes, it is when the Governor-General agrees with the Prime Minister to put the proceedings of the House of Commons on hold for awhile, and why would that be necessary class?
Class?
Jennifer?
"Even poll-a-tic-shuns need RECESS!"
Well, that's true but not completely correct,
Billy?
"So they can have a longer Christmas Holiday and swallow more turkey, thicken their gravy, and have more time to get over their Harvey Wallbanger hang-overs from New Year's Eve."
Very creative but no I'm afraid not,
Er, okay, Johnny?
"To save the Prime Ministers' silly ass being put in a sling and fired off to Palookaville by the Demolition party and allow some out-of-focus YouTube nerd-turd from ruling the country,"
Thank you Johnny, ha ha , always picturesque in your choice of words. But class that should be "Coalition" not "Demolition" parties.
"and having a go at us from behind, .kinda like sloppy seconds, "
OKAY JOHNNY! That is quite enough for today!!
The second word for today is "Dic ,... er Fascist. F-A-S-C-I-S-T.
Does any one, other than Johnny ha ha, know what that word means?
Ah, Michael, yes?
"It means someone who can run the best-est in a race"
No not quit, that would be FASTEST, F-A-S-T-E-S-T.
While that may be indirectly relevant to the discussion today, anyone els, Mary?
"Sometimes my Mom goes to beauty and the beast salon and has one of those don, "
Ah, no Mary, that would be a FACIAL. F-A-C-I-A-L. While it certainly looks like the Prime Minister may have had a touch-up, I mean check-out the hair, but that's not what we're looking for,
Elizabeth!
"It's someone who refuses to eat in order to loose weight or see Godspells. "
No not quite dear, although, on second thought, .ah, well no, that is someone who is on a Fast.
F-A-S-T.
Anyone else, quickly?
Ah, besides you Johnny, anyone, please,
sigh,
okay, Johnny?
"is someone who rules the country in a prorogued situation without any conditions or opposition and can basically do what he wants, when he wants, and smile gloatingly at the cameras and lie straight-faced to the nation, both nations, in different languages using different words to inflame the West and to massage Quebec. "
Very good Johnny if a bit simplistic.
" and is a Dickhead,."
Thank you Johnny, that'll certainly be all for today,
"and rides in a friggin armed convoy even if it's to go across the street for a Tim Bit Chit-Chat at the Horn Ornament's place and have his cake and probably eat it to, she's not a bad looker that one!!!,
,a scared dork who won't face parliament, can't face the public, won't even friggin walk half a block, running running running and hiding, hiding always hiding, the guy's a friggin joke, Tony Soprano on steroids, Con-Man, Flim-Flam-Man, Sham-man, who tapes telephone calls, and probably checks our e-mails, and you'd better check the river tonight for bodies with concrete shoes,"
JOHNNY!!!
Sigh, can't wait 'til tomorrow.
Class dismissed.

Bob Stark is a musician, poet, philosopher and couch potato. He spends his days, as did Jean-Paul Sarte and Albert Camus, pouring lattes and other adult beverages into a recycled mug, bearing a long and winding crack. He discusses, with much insight and passion, the existentialist and phenomenological ontology of the Vancouver 'Canucks,' a hockey team, "Archie" comic books and high school reunions. In other words, Bob Stark is a retired public servant living the good life on the wrong coast of Canada.
