Strombo

You have to read this article in Toronto Life Magazine about George Stroumboulopoulos. The only label I can think of for this guy is neurotic. But in a very endearing, stray-cat that only shows up at your house when it's hungry, sort-of-way. It needs to be fed, and your attention feeds it.

Could it be that he is longing for his father that left him when he was young? Like, "...watch this Dad!"

I wont say much more. This is just my initial impression. I feel like his pain is driving him. And if he just stays insanely busy, he will not have to think about his 'losses'.

I am still in the process of internalizing what I've read. It'll grow and I'll have more to say. The guy is a nut... I love it! It's vailed authenticy on steroids.

Enjoy the read. I did.

The article shows a very emo version of George, if you ask me. I find it quite easy to watch the 8PM Newsworld showing of the hour, but whenever I try to watch the standard 11PM CBC showing, I always fall asleep... Maybe I just wasn't built with the energy and stamina of Strombo. Maybe I need to try that energy drink of his...
