Hump Day

Hump Day is Canada Day. This is Misa Campo, who obviously is the lone Montreal-native who approves of the Scott Gomez trade. The 21-year-old tells people she is a model, but it’s this slice of her Wikipedia page that I want to focus on today:

…her career hasn’t exploded yet, she has become widely known and very popular among the people that have come across her. She currently is “working on her growing career as a model while being a barmaid in California.”

Among the many copy mistakes in the entry was the lack of close quotation marks, so I added those at the end. Funny how they make the citation sound sad, eh?  Just by adding two little ticks at the end of the sentence, it makes her existence sound unfulfilled and ultimately a little tragic. On the plus side, that seems to evoke a little sympathy for Misa. And isn’t that what being a Canadian is all about?
