Just because you get to a certain number doesn't mean you have to roll up into a ball and wait for the grim reaper. We were put on this earth to do something!

But Toronto, the last few times I've been here, what always comes up is Chicago and West Berlin. It's a big, sprawling city beside a lake, of a certain age and a certain architectural complexity.

There's an excess of surface marble and bronze: it's Germanic and as pretentious as pretentious can be.

When other people first became aware of the cow, they expressed concern and anxiety. They suggested strategies for getting the animal out of Molly's parlor: remedies and doctors and procedures, some mainstream and some New Age.

Then they usually began to pretend that the cow wasn't there, and they preferred for Molly to go along with the pretense.
