I had family in Panama until recently and really thought it was a bit of an underrated destination. Really enjoyed it. That being said, I have not been to any of the other cities.

I liked it too, although HDTV is not overly kind to the decidedly weathered Kids...

I think bradm should run for Mayor...who's with me?

"She says she wants to be a sociologist, But she better first get checked by a neurologist" Are you sure that isn't a Barenaked Ladies lyrics quiz? or Moxy Fruvous?

I dunno, I suppose I'm part of the machine, but where is the line drawn between globalization and this stuff which whiffs of bogus conspiracy BS anyways (sorry). And while you worry about this and vote NDP which generally favours the Conservatives electorally, Rome burns, ie. Harper re-shapes the justice system (mandatory minimums etc.) and all kinds of other things into his neo-con ideas...I dunno, I think you have to pick your battles and this is at the 30 thousand foot level while there's a lot more going on that would be a better focus for attention.

On behalf of Stephen Harper: "keep voting your issues boys, and thanks for your support - the kids love Harrington Lake!" http://www.nationalpost.com/related/topics/story.html?id=2386891

Pretty much...the Senate actually amended the bill ("gutted" according to Harper) then passed it at 3rd and final reading. Because it was amended it would have gone back to the House for approval. Prorogation prevented that from happening. So...it will likely be re-tabled in it's original form, in March, likely pass the House in similar fashion, but because of the new Conservative Senators, not be amended this time around by the Senate... This all took about 11 months or so...half in the Senate, so that will be sped up considerably with the imminent Conservative *plurality* in the Senate, so unless there is an election or another prorogation in the next 6 months or so after March, the not-watered down version of this will likely pass in 2010. Good thing you voted NDP eh?

Looks like prorogation killed this bill at about the last minute possible... http://www2.parl.gc.ca/Sites/LOP/LEGISINFO/index.asp?Language=E&Chamber=N&StartList=A&EndList=Z&Session=22&Type=0&Scope=I&query=5655&List=stat

...oh please not the lemons again... My parents gave us a panini press, we are having lots of fun with it.

Oh no, terrible news, my sympathies to all involved.

Ordered one through the Glebe Meat Market...grain fed, not free range...we'll see how it goes. Thanks guys.

Anyone know where I can buy a fresh turkey for xmas? Help foodies!!!

Congrats to the whole Bouchard clan! Great work guys!

Really? I thought everyone had this bad boy years ago. Thanks for the heads up on Little Feat DVD - can't wait.

I really thought this was a bad idea when he had two lead guitar players in the band.

I like Dog the Bounty Hunter.

Wow, you can cut the homo-erotic sexual tension in this thread with a knife.

Here's an excerpt from my cover letter: "please be advised that my acceptance of this position is conditional on your agreement that no pre-1976 Grateful Dead shows will be released until there are no remaning recordings of live concerts performed between 1977-1980. I look forward to your response."

"Haze" by Bobby and the Midnites. Thread over.

Maybe they could also tell their kids not to vote for left-wing fringe parties who split the progressive vote and allow Harper and his Reform agenda to form government and set environmental policy with 36% of the vote...oops, my agenda is showing.

Why do you have to be so critical all the time?

Take 'em to Hy's - they'll listen!

Everything looks amazing, but I couldn't help but think that there was a glaring omission from the review... ...WINE?!?! What did you drink with all this wonderful stuff???
