The David Gilmour thing: My NEW Taki’s article

October 1, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

Enjoy:

I thought perhaps a third “David Gilmour” had gained notoriety last week, though. Hunkered down in my office, I kept half-hearing televised news reports murmuring from the living room about some kind of shocking incident taking place on or about a University of Toronto campus.

From the grave tones being affected by reporters, I briefly feared some lone loony named “David Gilmour” had just gunned down a dozen or so female students at Victoria College à la the Montreal Massacre.

The truth was nowhere near as exciting.
