so I have been trying to find a pair of swim trunks for the hubster.. I looked at Walamrt and couldn't find any and was told they went on clearance.. umm, it is the middle of August in Los Angles, I am sure people still want to buy swimwear :blink:.. I looked at Kmart and they did have some there but all the ones that he would wear were the wrong colour or size... grrr... I did look online and they did have some there but the shipping was almost as much as the trunks :P...

I am going to check out Ross and Marshall's today

u have a Kohls close by?? They have very good prices and usually have a large clearance section! And if u sign up (free) they usually email u a discount coupon!! Took a few days for mine to arrive!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

What you're not a bieber belieber!? :o

The nerve!!!!

;)

I find it uberly disturbing when a 20 something year old woman calls him "hot"... and there's so many of those... it's gross. He doesn't even look 16, he looks 12!

You could also try Target or JCPenney for swim trunks Marilyn.

And ugh... Justin Bieber. He's a worse embarrassment to Canada than Celine Dion. Why is is all the crappy 'pop' stars from Canada become internationally famous easily, but the awesome indie rock bands usually don't?

Love Lands End for swimming stuff. I think they have free shipping at the moment too.

The less said about Bieber the better.

I think because indie is indie and meant to stay sort of below the mainstream.

But on the plus side the arcade fire's newest album debuted at number one. PS: that album is AWESOME. So much better than neon bible.

http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/17386/190591 - little article on that.

Okay so we gave the world Bieber, but we also gave the arcade fire, broken social scene, wolf parade, tegan and sara, tokyo police club... and I could go on foreverrrrr. :D

Rush made up for Celine Dion and Nickelback, but I don't know that Rush's greatness is enough to take on the 5 headed beast known as Bieber.

I went to the boardwalk with my husband last weekend and we were riding the ride: "music express" and that "baby" song by Justin Bieber came on and my husband and I were like: "Ahh damn we have to ride to this" and there were these two little girls behind us who just started giggling and yelling: "I LOVE JUSTIN BIEBER!" they weren't any older than 8 years old, I couldn't help but find that absolutely adorable because that just made their day. :lol:
