...the incredibly dated Apple Works and incredibly bloated and slow MS Office.
MS Office on the Mac is a fucking dream compared to MS Office for Windows. In fact, it has been more enjoyable than any other office suite that I have come across.
The main question is whether or not there is a real threat to the United States. Twenty years ago, it was conceivable that the USSR would roll into Canada and attack the United States, or would start raining hellfire on the country as a whole.
These days, the threat is from countries that have limited missile capabilities. North Korea has the ability to fly only a few hundred kilometres with their existing missiles, and the same is for Iran and all those Middle Eastern countries.
As a Canadian, i do not see a purpose to doing this, and see diplomacy as a method of getting things done at the very best. If someone is going to attack the United States, it's going to be ground based, nuclear or not.
Those companies are not "knock offs," they're just labels in Japan that have the licence to reproduce music from Japan. They're perfectly legal in Taiwan, but are not to be sold outside of that country.
Brian and I have been friends since we were both nine years old. He is an incredible person who is a thousand times smarter than me. Trust me, this game will be good.
It seems you forget that Seattle has the option of evacuating to the north towards Vancouver, Canada. Yes. It is too in the path of a volcano, Mt. Baker which is slightly east of Bellingham, WA, but Mt. Baker has been rather quiet for the past number of years and even if it were to blow its top, Vancouver and the area around it would be relatively okay.
Mad cow disease has been discovered in the US but isn't acknowledged -- that would upset the beef lobby - very powerful
This has happened twice, but only once in Canada. The second that it happened in Canada, it got wide-spread media attention, and many countries (including the United States) blocked beef imports from coming into their countries.
The Canadian media as well as the American media reported quite heaviliy on this, and it pretty much put the Canadian beef industry in a bit of hot water. Even as I write this comment a year and a half after such a case was found, the beef industry is still reeling from the economic losses that were incurred.
Another incident that occured in my country this year was the discovery of the bird flu in the Fraser Valley area of British Columbia, where I live. Poulty imports from my area were closed off for a while, and all of the birds in the infected area were slaughtered.
This same case was reported quite heavily, although with less interest from outside of the country.
It seems that the United States' media as a whole lacks a spine when it comes to reporting, and therefore doesn't report on the stories that really do matter.

My GSM/GPRS provider included it in their service, so I made use of it.
I get paid weekly on every Thursday, and I expected my account to have my pay deposited by payroll. I go to the doctor and had to pay for a non-essential medical examination, and I found out I had insufficient funds. Hence, I ended up using my Visa card to pay for the examination.
I would be a bit happier if RBC was willing to kill some of my service fees this month, but seeing their customer service track record gets a bit shoddy every other year, I doubt that'll happen.
If the Germans wrote a journaled file system, it would be called "GAS FS," or "German Accounting System File System." I don't think it would go well with the Jewish population.
Explain to me why drug costs are cheaper in Canada if they get their drugs from the same sources as Americans. Why do American pharmaceutical firms need to send their development offshore?

But Antarctica is okay to take, right? I am sure the captured continent of Antarctica and 'Antartica' itself can form a treaty of some sort.

Office just flies on my iBook.
Newsworld is a Canadian news network funded by the tax payers. It is a wholey better source than most available in North America.
DMCA even. ;-)
Oh boy. Will Google throw out the DCMA on this one?
Just make sure you put the lense on right. Otherwise, the person reading the prompt may lose his or her eyes and other facial parts.
That is not the case. What matters is that MY COUNTRY'S soil is being requested for use with YOUR COUNTRY'S programme.
I reserve the right to tell your country to "fuck off" from doing that. Can Canada put nuclear weapons in your country freely?

And the United States wonders why we're [Canada] reluctant to join the missile defence programme...
It doesn't work, that is why.
Sigh.

Trust me, seeing that I have seen the guy work on it, it is not close to being a hoax.

I wouldn't think that. The same was said about the PSone, and there are plenty of modchips for that particular model.
To clarify, I was talking about two incidents in the United States, and a single one in Canada.

It's that simple, folks.

From one Vancouverite to another, did this guy live in Kits or something? =P

Vancouver has it right when it comes to freeways in a sense.

The four freeways that feed into Vancouver proper do not even go near the city centre. They just feed the city and that is it.
...I am really pissed off.

No mention of any Vancouver, BC stuff? Comeon. :P
;)
Jeez. Even one of Bellingham's TV stations caters primarily to the Vancouver market.
