Did you make it up in time for them firing Mons Meg?
(They don’t actually fire that one, do they….bugger)
Dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria.
I can’t hear the 1 o’clock gun from my flat.
I’d probably hear Mons Meg though.

Yeah.
And there’s not much you can say. It wouldn’t be fair on her to say anything this close to her leaving.

that’s true. Is it a for good move or temporary?

A year.
Pretty long time.
She has family over there that she wants to see.

oh well. You’re probably doing the safest, most sensible thing by not saying anything at this point.
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
Yeah, but there are times it depresses the fuck out of me.
Last night, for instance.
"We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into Iraq"

I dunno
She’s not going away forever, its just a year
Would it be that bad of a thing to let her know that you’re interested in her, and would like to keep in touch but at the same time you’re not putting any pressure on her?

She’d have to be pretty stupid to not know at this point.
"We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into Iraq"
- Major Mike Shearer
you'll be surprised
but I myself won’t judge since I can’t tell
from personal experience though, I’ve had a few female friends who I was very interested in and spent an immense amount of time with, that I’ve made very clear without explicitly telling her that I like them and they had no clue at all
"God's in His heaven. All's right with the world." - Robert Browning (1812-1889)
she is a really good friend of yours…and you really like her…and the move is a year long…can you go and visit her while she’s there?

Yea, I will admit that was the one good thing about AC when I flew to and from Spamcouver, their entertainment system was nice with lots of material and content. I got to watch a bunch of Discovery channel shows including Mythbusters inflight instead of a crappy movie. They actually had some good flicks including Dark Knight and this was back in December.

The entertainment system on the new planes is good though but then again they have them on most international airlines now. On others though the staff are actually nice to you. If you get the chance fly EVA Air. Awesome service/food etc.

don’t worry, I hate AC, the entertainment system was the one saving grace, everything else was a complete disaster
actually the flight crew on my flight TO Spamcouver were generally good (one of them was actually hot, yes a hot AC flight attendant exists), the crew coming back was atrociously terrible and they were quite rude to me
in the future I’m going to fly Cathay Pacific as well, CP is pretty damned good

I credit the NFL.
The marquee division in boxing are the heavyweights.
There hasn’t been a US contender in that division for years. Mostly, I think this is down to guys with that sort of physique and athletic ability are looking at getting into the NFL – where they can make more money, more quickly and retire earlier.
It doesn’t help that there isn’t a single, unified governing body in boxing, either.

Traffic was really nutty today and lots of accidents on hwy 1. It seems pretty easy, people seem to forget that the roads will be especially slick after a long sunny spell what with the oil on the roads coming up. Didn’t see any accidents but I saw a couple close calls and a few backups that I presume were caused by accidents further up!

Just park my backside in the right lane, let the cruise control do its thing. Wonderful.
