I always thought the most irritating phrase in the English language was "I'm Glen Beck."

It induces in me feelings of nostalgia for my youth. In the middle of the last century, when I was a junior sports writer, "at the end of the day" was already marked as laughable and those who used it were suspected of pretension. Whenever it appeared in a story, my mentors on the sports desk of The Globe and Mail would sigh, roll their eyes and otherwise indicate their contempt for careless writing. I suspect I enjoy it now because it was my first journalism cliche, the first lodged in my memory by the disdain of knowing colleagues.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.nationalpost.com/arts/story.html?id=1948875"><P>That's not quite the equivalent of a first love, but as part of a boy's education, it has similar nostalgia value. Did I ever actually use it in a story? I hope not. I like to think that observing all those rolled eyes saved me.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/70D60143-094B-4057-9D91-F6B9A7426873/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
