Great post. Great point. I am a little sick of seeing these freaks of nature (in many sports, that's what they are) getting lauded simply because genetics and ridiculous inhumane training and steroids etc have turned them into machines. I mean look at the female swimmers? look at the...

Doc -- they run a piece of fiber over the keyboard and around the edges of the laptop and then test the piece of fiber for any trace elements of explosive materials... This has nothing to do with checking the FILES or data on the laptop. The reason it takes so long for them to check what's ON...

Sometimes accidents happen when someone is awaiting trial. Sometimes people get killed in jail and nobody ever finds out who did it. Sometimes a guy like Li could slip on a piece of soap in the shower and crack his head open or trip at the top of a long flight of stairs. That would be...

In a few years they will remove your head so that your brain can be examined for dangerous thoughts. Have we gone a little too far? Ummm, yes, I think so. All this garbage is a waste of time and money. Terrorists could literally blow up thousands of buildings full of people and the...

Yes -- KS is my preffered choice too. It also happens to be one that I think "staddles" both the tourist and the local market. Just a block above Sherbrooke, it's basically on the borderling of your map. I would guess that on a given weekend night it's 70/30 locals to visitors... This is good...

Awesome! When can I move in? Do I get my own room? I assume this is free... Your place is SP friendly, right? :D

JH -- You are kidding right? I could give you a laundry list of differences between the people of NS and AB, including but not limited to their heritage, their common histories, attitudes, lifestyles, etc etc etc. However, anyone here from either of those areas could probably do a much...

Your first sentence is a question, yet it has no question mark. Your second sentence is technically a statement, yet it does have a question mark. We all make mistakes. I don't think this is the topic of the thread. I agree with Daringly on this one. If you'd rather be a citizen of...

I agree with YouVantOption 100% and I'm glad that we (still) live in place where intelligent satire is permitted, and understood by many people. The knee-jerk reaction to throw fists up in the air and scream that this is somehow "outrageous" without understanding the writer's intent (which...

In 1964 (or thereabouts) the surgeon general of the US informed the public that smoking caused cancer. Prior to this many people considered smoking to be medicinal and it was often recommended as a good remedy for coughs. It's a wonderful new and tingly feeling, but I have to admit that I...

Metoo -- IF and it's a big IF... but if you took the time to actually read into my point, you would see that I generally agree with what you say above. Of course, I did state elswhere that the "tobacco industry" has a point (money, to summarize it), I basically agree that smoking itself does...

#3 is the key. Friends buy drinks, not dances. BD

oh boy, it will be hard to stay out of Iran. I will have to visit Syria instead... I think over there they just cut your dick off, but they don't kill you.

Korbel, Wonderfully naive as usual. This is the myopic view of the tunnel-visionned non-smoker who tries to tie smoking and personal freedom together and then break them apart... So, it's ok that all the walkers and bikers breath in the exhaust fumes of cars, right? That's different...

Good advice for people reading this thread... Masturbation has saved me at least tens of thousands of dollars over the years. No hotel, always on time.... so many pros and just a couple cons.. Take matters into your own hands gentlemen... BD

Urbanite -- If you can't image Montreal getting any better, you must not live here! Based on your comment I can only assume you that must be a senior member of the Bush cabinet. This is their strategy for handling matters of all kinds :) BD

I know it's not me. "exellent ads and traffic" in relation to what? Your myspace page? It's all relative. There are probably many thousands of websites with more users, more traffic and more ad revenue. For what it is, and in this industry, I believe MERB is a leader and certainly a...

I can ship you in a container for $0.89/pound, if you don't mind the dark for a couple weeks. You can bring water with you (but no food, due to pests) but you will have to pay for the water weight as well. You would be sharing space with some plastic products from China... BD

A "site" or any business is obviously worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. The pizza.com example is one where the "business" was non-existant, but happened to own an "asset" -- ie: their url, which was very valuable. It's like that shabby, rat-infested slum of a house that sold for...

I am sure that the tobacco farmers, tobacco companies, shareholders of tobacco companies, distributors of tobacco, manufacturers of related products, and sellers of tobacco and related products, and all of their families -- to name just a few, would be able to point out the purpose. The purpose...
