I believe that Canadians would not have the motivation to build more large scale refineries due to NIMBYISM, but we certainly moan when we are forced to but back the product from those that make the sacrifice.

Yep. Piss and moan about the lack of jobs and high taxes but when it comes down to getting a job creating project off the ground the same people complain.

Did those raving about Chavez in Venezuela stop filling up at Citgo?
I doubt they know the difference.

I'm opposed to the pipeline simply because I think the refining jobs should be in Canada and ship finished products. That way individual products can be shipped all over the world to the highest bidder and we are not stuck sucking up to the US to try and get paid a fair amount.
Well then you'd best learn that this heavy oil pipeline starts it's journey at the Lloydminster heavy oil upgrader and is tied in with a line from the .Regina heavy oil upgrader. There are currently 1500 people expanding the Regina refinery/upgrader to twice the size. It doubles again as soon as this new addition goes live this winter.

Send more fitters, iron workers, heat and frost insulators. They are in need of more people. Union only though.

Then what are they sending to the refineries in the gulf?

There aren't many CITGO stations around where I live. They are rare actually. But there is a HUGE CITGO sign in Boston that we see every Red Sox game.

Besides, Chavez talks tough but has little bite outside his own borders.

I'm sure he does. That CITGO sign has been up there long before Chavez took over. It is almost a Boston landmark.

How is Hugo doing these days? I heard he was ill and seeking treatment in Cuba. Was there anything to that?

Some say a hip thing, others say prostate cancer.

You can have it for years before it goes haywire and is noticeable by Dr Jelly Finger. If you don't have your's tickled 3 times a year you aren't doing yourself any favours.

Yeah man. I have no intentions on having to piss through a hose. If that means three pokes up the ass a year then so be it.

Beware the fat fingered proctologist!

Just sayin.

I hear you... but the Doc only schedules me once a year. Maybe because there is no history of it in my family?

Hey! What cartoon is that?!

Who is the animator?

That guy made the strangest cartoons and I have been trying to find out who he is.

Boy were they twisted...

"I'm very dissapointed in you Jeremy... Oh that is Mr. Cringle... Mr. Cringle has just returned from the war... I'm very dissapointed in you Jeremy"

Yeah...it was that bizzare.
