That's worth what ... a two-four and a half now? (how can you tell I haven't bought in a while?)

Moderator beer huh? Sometimes out cold might be the better option when dealing with the unruly in here. You've a lot more patience than most sites. A hearty thumbs up to you all!

Wolf, can you imagine what last call would be like if we served beer?

LOLLLLL
Yesterday thing 2 and I were in Zellers and we saw a bin with a sign reading:

Licensed 10" Balls - 30% off.

If you find after your inventory of chooks that you're missing any, you might wanna stop at Zellers to restock.... I dunno tho....10" ... that's a lot of chook. :lol:

Canadian ISPs Plan Net Censorship
The plans made by the large telecom businesses would change the Internet into a cable-like system, where customers sign up for specific web sites, and must pay to see each individual site beyond a certain point. Subscription browsing would be limited, extra fees would be applied to access out-of-network sites. Many sites would be blocked altogether.

Death of Free Internet is Imminent
In the upcoming weeks watch for a report in Time Magazine that will attempt to smooth over the rough edges of a diabolical plot by Bell Canada and Telus, to begin charging per site fees on most Internet sites. The plan is to convert the Internet into a cable-like system, where customers sign up for specific web sites, and then pay to visit sites beyond a cutoff point. From my browsing (on the currently free Internet) I have discovered that the 'demise' of the free Internet is slated for 2010 in Canada, and two years later around the world. Canada is seen a good choice to implement such shameful and sinister changes, since Canadians are viewed as being laissez fair, politically uninformed and an easy target. The corporate marauders will iron out the wrinkles in Canada and then spring the new, castrated version of the Internet on the rest of the world, probably with little fanfare, except for some dire warnings about the 'evil' of the Internet (free) and the CEO's spouting about 'safety and security'. These buzzwords usually work pretty well.
