TonyRage Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 So....I am far away and haven't been up to date with the haps in the homeland. Paul Martin, Mad Cow exports and Dalton McGuinty, but I still want to hear what's up. So tell me all, what were your biggest smiles and biggest frowns of 2003? My biggest smiles: Travelling Phish back in action Right Thur The picture of drunken me and three kids at Lose Yer Shoes with the kids holding a bong and wearing Simpsons Dead and Phish shirts Jared's poor attempt to find a heady wife and then finding one and then losing one. Canada staying out of an illegal war. Brief decriminalisation of Pot My biggest frowns: George Bush's war on the world Chretien's retirement 3 months early Loss of frontier town for the CTMF So now it's out to you guys....let's hear it...

Jerry as well Friends that missed *something*, yet should have been there , but I couldnt talk them into it The Hoagie House (Jaimoe, we need confirmation on this rumour. If this is gone, I am going to lose it) Hangovers and being so slow some mornings that a 5 minute job took 2 hours Not meeting TonyRage, or not remembering it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
