   Been on shortage of examples, but nothing becomes of it.  The people just don't   
   CARE. :(

   Us Canadians take pride in peeling out the shorts & tees as early as possible   
   after winter.   
      
   I think it's just to scare the US generals doing logistics for an eventual   
   invasion of Canada, to show that it'd be as much folly for them as it was for   
   Hitler & Napoleon to invade Russia.   
      
   I know most Americans wouldn't be for such an invasion, but the billionaires   
   are drooling at all the natural resources we have!

   Like those wgho pray for their team to win, not understanding that the other   
   team's fans aredoing the same for theirs to win, & that the God of fairness is   
   just going to sit back & let the best-trained team do what it trained for.   
      
   One time a guy asked their clergyman if the other teanm's vicar's big prayer   
   would help & he replied, "Only if the QB doesn't screw up his passes."

   The glden paracguyte is stupid. It exists in government, too.   
      
   A guy gets laid oiff his manager position, gets $300,000, then geyts signed up   
   for another such position, at $400K/year, & a $500K parachute.   
      
   Cronyism at its worst! Or they have 2 public positions each earning 6 figures,   
   simultaneously.

   We're due our second monsoon this weekend, so I'm going to enjoy being holed   
   up,. eating turkey! (Finally found a bird at my butcher, he knocked $30 off the   
   price for me, so we could finally afford one first time all year --we've been   
   craving it -- we'll have a full turkey feast tonight)   
      
   The entire Fraser River's valley's flood plains are flooded(hmm. . . something   
   in that name), except for my city (we're the only ones, even though 2 feet   
   below sea level, to be above water all week! Good city council ordering work on   
   the dikes recently, & upgrades to the pumps, & staff for getting it all done!)
