I think it's been raining in New Jersey 90% of the last entire month and a half..I kid you not. It's starting to get really depressing.

I know I could barely get out of bed this morning... just the rain and darkness, makes me feel icky. I just want to get back into bed but I'm forcing myself to go to the gym, I won't let this rain bring me down! I hope it clears up, as I'm attending a wedding Saturday and would be nice to see the end to this rain.

God no!! Would you go to the depths of hell on your day off?? I don't go unless I am summoned by the beast itself and even then I make sure I'm in and out.

BTW that was complete and total sarcasm, I do not think my MIL is satan. I give satan a little more credit than that.

KIDDING! :P

:rofl:

You drive a scion? Is it one of those box cars?

Glen has a Scion, they do have the box type ones but his is a 2 door coupe. I don't like it, as I'm not a fan of any 2 door cars (getting in and out of them is a pain) I try to never drive it. They don't sell them in Canada, interestingly enough.

And Flames, yes they do play live games on NHL network, oftentimes it's the hockey night in Canada games

Every time I see one of those box cars I just want to walk over and kick it. :lol:

They are SOOOO ugly, it just looks like they plopped a box on wheels, no aerodynamics whatsoever (sorry Flames) :lol:

wifes car!! Gets good gas mpg, very well made (by toyota) and for $15000 its a bargain!!

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

Jared LOVES those box type looking cars. I think they are VERY Asian looking for some reason.

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard

Tough choice. I like both but I'd get the TL I think.
