Along the path of life we will encounter many- things that will shape our lives and steer us in new directions. We will realize our calling and discover aur place. We can neyer be sure we are doing what was intended of us. Life is a mystery. At present, I arn wandering if I missed my calling. Perhaps, I think ta myself, I should be working for the CBC., Last Wednesday night found me crammed on a set of bleachers in a small studio, in the old CBC building. Destiny, well l probably neyer knaw. We'Il attribute it simply ta the luck of a friend who happened ta obtain four tickets ta the taping of the CBC's "Kids in the'Hall"., Ta those wha don't know the "Kids in the Hall" are a comedy troupe who have faund a nice rating in bath Canada and the United States. It's a sketch show, with humour that is warped and sometimes slightly obnoxiaus. 1 love it. But I digress. Finmtalking about destiny, 'and what may be, my calling in life. Sitting crammed on these high uncomfortable bleachers we watchcd as the actors taped their skits. Bctween skits we watched as the crew did their job. And al the way through, we sat and wondcred just how much the people that appearcd ta have no vieir job but t0 sit on a coi., I aýý uaIIy gai paid. Anglican Church. It was a delightful number on the past of bath musicians. This folks, is the Canadian tax dollar at work. Remember... CBC is PUBLIC BROADCASTING. Funded by the Canadian government. .I had a mental picture of my hard earned money flying out the window as I watched these folks ai work (and I use the termn loosely). First there are the tape peaple. There rale apparently is ta walk around with several raîls of tape attached ta their belt. Well, thank-God for ihem. Exhibit B... The persan wha staad around and danced while the band played. Is he getting paid? I want a tax refund. I neyer figured out if he was really of any use. Oh wait, I remember. Anytirne a late group of people came in, he was the one to direct the section of bleacher creatures on which way ta shift their butis ta allow for more room. My apologies. Next, there are the people who sat on the couch and did nothing. The only tîme they moved was when this particular set was needed fo r a skit. Then they came back and sat again. This is the job I covet. They did nothing. They didn't hold tape. They didn't direct bums on a wooden surface. They sat., And' sat. And looked quite pleased with their progress I must say. Yes, maybe this was destiny leading me ta water. Destiny telLi ng me that I was ging te make the big bucks and'be truly dcserving of il.
