I've never been to a live hockey game before. Not a particular hockey fan (only watched some "important" games on TV once or twice). And I've lost my toque. :P

You may all hit me now.


*hugs* I've never been to a live one either o.O;;

The first hockey game I ever watched was the Canada Vs US olympics um, 3 years ago, I think. hehehe. I never had a toque o.O;


Shhhh, just don't let the Americans know and we'll be fine. As long as they keep thinking that we live in igloos and we can't hear Ann Coulter say that we should be thankful that americans allow us to even live on the same continent, we should be okay. (Have I mentioned how much I enjoy right-wing conservative talk show host party hacks?)


Heh, did you see the 'Talking to Americans' show? it was hilarious XD They must have cut out a lot of people, and I'm sure that many Americans ARE educated, but it goes to show that there are some who aren't. It kinda makes me wonder what would happen if the Americans had a show like that here. *ponders*

"But mom... Canada has provinces!" hehe. If you've seen it, you'll understand^_~


Yeah... of course some are very intelligent. Then again, some very select Americans aren't...

My favourites were the governor of Arkansas believing that the Canadians capital building was actually an igloo, the governor of Iowa who thought that American and Canadian minutes were different lengths and George W. Bush who thought that our Prime Minister was called Mr. Jean Poutine. http://home.comcast.net/~wwwstephen/americans/

Anyhoo... I don't suppose there's someway to get a PPT map up, is there? Just a map of the world where we can somehow put a dot or a pin where everyone lives like they have in Tourist stops or something.


haha, yeah, that one just cracked me up so bad XDD *rofl* I saw a taped version, and was babysitting, so I didn't see all of it, but I saw most^_^ hehe.
Just like the one about the Russian navy attacking Saskatchewan^^* hehe.

Sweet...map...*goes to post*

Eep, Wolven_Spirits, you live in North Van? Major mudslides, apparently (stupid rain!). Is your area affected?

*shakes head* I'm VERY lucky that I'm not in that area!!! My parents were going to buy a house there, but then they realised that it could be dangerous, and we bought a different house instead.

Heh.
In Edmonton a few years ago... some houses fell into the river valley in a very upper class neighbourhood (thats what you get when you build on a flipping unstable dirt cliff with no trees. HMMM. ROCKET SCIENCE! *lightbulb*)
My friends aunt... had bought land in that area. She no longer has said land, and it never sold. Because all but about two feet to the sidewalk of it... have fallen into the valley.
Pity too. Because if it hadn't it would well have been worth a good 500000 bucks per plot (she had three).
But she bought cheap. And she's some sort of super... radiologist... so it's sadly all a drop in the bucket for her.

Yeah... money can buy a lot of things. Sadly intelligence isn't one of them.must... refrain... from... making... inappropriate... political... comment...

Don't we have a fairly decent sized population in Eastern/Southern Asia? Or am I just completely screwing up my PPT demographics? I realize they aren't all hanging out on this thread, but I thought there was a fairly large enough group so that we'd at least see more than 1 person who isn't a North American.

Well, I kinda WISH I lived in Singapore....heh. I love it there. Plus all of my mom's side of the family lives there...I'd actually have relatives nearby! None of my relatives live on the same contintent >.<

But still, Canada is an awesome place to live XD

I am not responsible if my little person is nowhere near where it should be. I think it might have ended up kinda in Wales... o_O

((Edit)) Steven fixed it, so if it's wrong now, I'm really not responsible.

But when'd Emma move to Wales? XD

According to the map, there are very distinct clumps of PPTers. There's only a few that are off in a world by themself.

No real point there... just found it interesting.
