So it looks like the next step is to tell the President how to do his job. I think his behaviour when off the job should be pretty close to the rest of the population, but on the job I'd tend to mind my own business, as I don't even have an inkling what his job entails and I'm not convinced...

Common sense would tell me that the President of the United States should be cut a little slack on certain issues. When he has to meet with Gordon Brown in London, how is he supposed to get there? By row boat? We are not going to solve the energy/environment by sudden knee jerk reactions but...

Yep, those showers are getting to the point where they are a sickness. In the old days we pulled the tin tub off the wall every Sunday night and had far less sickness and dried skin etc. in those days. We were on a shallow well, so there was only so much water to go around anyway- water to...

Probably another case of where "The news" is trying to make the news. Let's just wait and see.

Are you going to vote? Which party do you feel is best to run the province for another four years? Are any of the party leaders worth their salt? What do you think?

Since it's Good Friday I think it's a good time to start a thread of examples we've heard of the English language being crucified. Could be fun. :lol::lol::lol:

According to yesterday's local paper, Global warming is over in the Boundary- March average temp. was 2.2C below normal & April got off to a terrible start, but finally did get 3 really nice days in a row.

The following is copied from this mornings National Post................................. For the last eight weeks, nearly 200 federal examiners have labored inside some of America's biggest banks to determine how those institutions would hold up if the recession deepened. What they are...

We are approaching an election in British Columbia and the sleezy ads are already starting. What type of ads influence your vote? Are you more interested in seeing ads depicting progress or ads that just attack the opponent?

I've always thought I was a customer of Terasen Gas, but now I'm confused. I get billed by Terasen gas and pay the bill to Terasen Gas, but apparently don't receive my gas from Terasen. Whoever supplies my gas charges me $9.49 a GJ, whereas Terasen's price is $7.53. Anyway after a lot of...

Harper brought in income splitting for taxation purposes, last year it saved us about $2000. This year due to the tax calculations being so mind boggling I let H & R Bloch do it for us and to my relief found we're saving $1800 this year. Obviously it works best where there is a disparity...

A thought has just occurred to me to save fresh water, but maybe it's already been thought and found unworkable, but I'll put it out there. Just simply diverting sink, bath and washing machine water to the toilet tank so when you flush it's not with fresh water. Is such a scheme feabible?

Hilarious- the tabloids would gobble that right up.

After the death of Natasha Richardson due to a fall while skiing, how do we convince young people to wear helmets in all situations where there is a danger of head injury? How do we convince them that "being cool" is in fact "being stupid"? My grandkids don't seem to have a problem with it and...

Yep, while man's activities may be largely detrimental, I think they are a drop in the bucket when compared to Mother Nature's management of the world.

What's really hilarious is the people who try to make this phenomenum so scientific (perhaps it gives them illustions of grandeur). If you put any phenomenum on a graph quite often you'll notice it goes up and down in a random fashion- and it's stupid to even make anything of any particular...

I think we've had enough weather this winter for it to be counted as climate. There recently seems to be a waning of aggression in pushing this "Global Warming" theory.

Handiest thing, makes bread, cookies, pies, sweeps the floor and does the laundry and even goes to the grocery store to buy grub.

What do you think of the whole thing?
