Birthdates Have Meanings?

I found out about this thanks to Hadeel.

Your Birthdate: January 30

You have the type of personality that people either love or hate. You're opinionated, dramatic, intense, and very outspoken. And some people can't get enough of you - they're totally addicted. Others, well, they wish you were a little more reserved. Your strength: Your flair Your weakness: If you think it, you say it Your power color: Scarlet red Your power symbol: Inverted triangle Your power month: March

What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

Some of it makes sense. But like Hadeel's reaction, I have to admit to some puzzlement over other elements...

Next up? Bad TV News...

Very Bad News in Canadian TV Drama

I just saw the Globe and Mail Arts news today. Hardcopy edition, of course.

If you're a fan of This is Wonderland or Da Vinci's City Hall, you'll be just as minded to have a "WTH!??!" reaction as I to the word: both series are cancelled.

Quoth Ruth-Ellen Soles, CBC spokesbeing: "These are...programs that CBC believed in and attached significant resources to... Unfortunately the audiences for all three have been in steady decline and did not resonate with Canadians. These decisions are always difficult but they had to be made."

I question the perception on the audience decline and the "resonation" angle as well. Especially since I've been watching both series regularly, and speak regularly with others who have the same habits.

And "question" is a polite choice of verb on my part. I don't yet know how to help remedy that error in perception on CBC's part, but this blog entry's going to be where I start.
