I just had to buy some while I was in Canada this past weekend. The ice cream has to be sliced in order to see the maple leaf.
It bothers me too, but for different reasons. All I know is that people get really offended when I tell them no, I don’t want to see pictures of your kids; no, I don’t want to hold your newborn baby; and no, I don’t want to hear about how one day I’ll change my mind and want my own. No.

Seriously! I wish you could “unfollow” some facebook friends. I would drop everyone who puts pics of his/her kids as his/her profile shot. Then they show you the minivan, and the boat… and some, the ATV.
hmm, after i wrote this I began to think what is it about people parading their kids on face book that annoys me so much. To some extend it feels like a permanent version of those Christmas card you get where they list all amazing things they did, got, and won the past year.

As a Canadian living in Michigan with access to CBC television via digital cable, I just have to say that I couldn’t agree more. The CBC coverage is much better.

American olympic coverage is always pretty crappy. i’m not just saying this as a canuck either! in my years in michigan where cbc is on basic cable, almost all yanks i knew chose to watch the olympics on cbc instead.after tiring of only watching nbc’s little highlight packages of sports that americans are doing well in, i went to cbc.ca to watch the live cbc online feed. guess what? “Video not available in your area”
yep, NBC has blocked CBC and others from making their olympics feeds available in the u.s. — is this the same NBC talking about China Blocking websites?

40-year-old Suspect Held in Gruesome Manitoba Bus Killing - So this has been posted everywhere today, but I haven’t had a chance to really get online until now. What a brutal tragedy. I have been on a Greyhound (in Canada) more than the average person, and I spent many nights sleeping while wearing headphones. I’ve witnessed many horrible/ridiculous things on a Greyhound, but all of it is meaningless in comparison to this story. This poor guy probably didn’t even see it coming.
