You betcha.......and being Canadian.........much more polite. :lol::lol:
I almost heaved just reading about the stink from that thing. Now there's a job for Mike Rowe. :lol: Glad I read the entire article as there appears to a be light at the end of the fat tunnel with their plans to collect and reuse the oil.
Pardon the interruption but could anyone tell me why soccer is called "the beautiful game"? Beauty being in the eye of the beholder, there are any number of games/sports that I might think of as beautiful and soccer does not head the list.

Won't stop the rest of us from enjoying it one teeny tiny bit.
Oh, I see. So it's even more tedious than fishing.
Cricket is the second-best sport in the world, as well as the world's second-most popular team sport. It's now the fastest-growing sport in Canada. It was declared Canada's national sport in the 1800s (the first international cricket match was not England vs Australia, or West Indies vs India, but Canada vs USA in the 1840s) and was only overtaken by silly hockey on ice in the early 1900s. With its huge growth in Canada at the moment it'll not be long before it becomes your national sport once more and then you'll become a normal, large Commonwealth country. At the moment, when it comes to cricket, Canada is the Commonwealth's pariah, with the sport huge in the other main Commonwealth nations and areas like Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, India, Pakistan and West Indies. Canada is the odd one out, and is missing out on great cricketing competitions with its Commonwealth allies.

What's the difference between Scottish and British?

Cricket isn't boring. It's only boring for Americans, who have short attention spans.
Football. Rugby.
The Six Nations is starting on Friday night. Wales vs England at the Millennium Stadium. That's a REAL sport. So once you've finished watching all your commercials for piles cures and laxatives tonight you can tune into BBC on Friday to watch a REAL sport in which you can actually watch plenty of brutal and bloody sporting action rather than another 20 minutes of commercials each time the ball hits the floor.
