"Let your Yea be yea;and your Nay be nay." My comment it's better to be straight forward and say what you mean, than posting some sort of cryptic "gnostic wisdom."

An idiotic prosecution! I expect this case will be appealed to the Florida Supreme Court, and if it gets that far, I wouldn't be surprised if the U.S. Supreme Court grants certiorari.

I wonder if his paternity claim is as fake as his title. In 1980 he paid an elderly Princess of Anhalt to adopt him - his birth name is Hans Lichtenberg.

That's absolutely the case. IF the tape had been found earlier, the Crown wouldn't have felt the need for her testimony and accepted a negotiated plea, and the extent of her involvement would have been known before her plea was accepted (which it then wouldn't have been).

Here we go off topic again :rolleyes: The man Eager Beaver wrote about was Giles Corey. Under the law at the time, by refusing to enter a plea he could not be tried (his wife whom he knew was innocent had already been convicted). As Eager Beaver wrote if convicted his property would...

The comment made above about the balconies at the Hotel de La Montagne sounds quite appealing at a lightly warmer time of year than at present. :p However, the weekend parking situation at the Hyatt has an attraction of its own, since I hate that feeling that you’ve almost paid for a nice...

I was thinking of early Summer in general. Thank you for reminding me about Grand Prix weekend:eek:

Out of curiosity how much does a discount booked king room at HDLM typically increase in price between now and late June? I ask because I typically stayed at another hotel which has changed management between then and now.

Just did a search for it under that name and didn't immediately find it. Would someone please provide a link. Second question: do either the HDLM or the Hyatt provide free parking? This is something to consider when comparing hotel prices.

How doggone animalistic can they be!

My favorites for this year were Budweiser's 'Fake Dalmatian' and 'Auctioneer Wedding' and Blockbuster's 'Mouse'. In general, I don't think the advertisments this year were as good as they've been the past two years. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqTNiZuu6jQ...

To follow-up on what others have already posted. The linked paper is basically a University undergraduate term-paper. It hasn't been peer reviewed and the author makes no claim to it having been published in any reputable medical or scientific journal. It therefore has just as much...

In terms of crossing the St. Lawrence at rush hour, if you're going to Center City Montreal (which most of us are) give thought to the Pont Victoria which often - due to being the oldest bridge across the river and only having three traffic lanes - is frequently not as jammed as the other...

You'd be doing two sides of a triangle roughly 829 miles (1,326 kilometers) of travel as opposed to the straight line distance of roughly 375 miles (600 kilometers). Flying to Buffalo is not a bad idea at all if you're traveling to Toronto but not when your destination is Montreal. From...

The hot rumor is that John Kerry has decided not to run. Not particularly surprising since he faced the choice of running for reelection to the U.S. Senate or for President.

I've only hobbied while I was single or after I was divorced. I too have been asked this question interestingly more by francophone girls than either anglophones or Russians. Honestly I don't know whether it is idle curiosity or what. I know that some have expressed seemingly real shock...

I suspect that both YUL and YYZ will have NEXUS Air programs within the next few years, as will one or all of the New York City airports as well as hopefully BOS and PHL. However, I have no inside knowledge.

Eager Beaver is on the money when he says that the usual questions are those in Uncle Kracker's post above. Numerous others have already posted the best advice be honest. Border agents are looking for smugglers, illegal immigrants, potential terrorists and other criminals, not for guys going...

It certainly should be mentioned before the session is booked with absolutely no penalty if the client says no thank you. I realize it isn't always predictable with clock work reliability, but for most women it is fairly predicable. Such that if a client wants to schedule in advance they can...

I'm not a member of the Law Society in Québec. However in many jurisdictions this would depend on whether the house was a pre-marital asset or a marital asset, and if the former were any significant improvements made to it with joint money. In most jurisdictions its important to keep...
