The Montreal I love!

Atwater Market: It's where you "play". "Have fun!" A place where you don't "have to!" Marvelously human!

Absolutely amazing! There is nothing like it in Montreal!

FANTABULOSO!!!!!!!!!!

The City Fathers must have been either asleep or drunk when they approved this.

Hopefully they will be asleep or drunk more often!

I've been in many such locations.

So have you!

But this graffiti is one of a kind. A work of art!

A still life is a still life is a still life. No matter where.

Think about this.

Is the value of a still life as a work of art directly linked to its "marketing" as a "still life?"

Montreal's very own "Leaning" Tower of Pisa at the Universite de Montreal!

I have special memories of the tower. Inside I listened to the lecturer in a class in the law school.

I was testing whether my French was adequate enough to apply to the U de M law school.

OMG!!!!!!!!!HOPELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I couldn't understand a word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I poked the guy at the desk next to mine and asked whether I could borrow his notes.

He scowled and grumbled and turned away.

But then his curiosity got the better of him.

He gave a glance at my notes.

He was so horrified at the garbled mess he saw,

that he practically shoved his notes in front of me!!!!!!.

Like having to save a drowning person...against his will!!!!!!!!!!!
