There is a grocery chain here that has gas stations. For every 50 spent on groceries they knock 5 cents off a gallon of gas, it's a pretty good deal.

They are very competitive on groceries too so it's not like they are marking them up to cover the cost.

So, for the first time, I'm excited to be doing the Halloween statue/dummy scare prank thing. At what age should I draw the line... thinking 8/9? Thoughts?

Holy crap, that Zombie look just scared the shit out of me. Luckily it didn't take long to realize it was just Sherry without any makeup on. Whoa, that was close!

Toronto people should probably check their preferred news source right about now...

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford dressed up for Halloween today. Good choice Rob - dressing up as a crack addict almost had us fooled.

I don't know what you're talking about.  The Onion says everything is fine in Toronto and that the mayor is definitely not a crack user.

Was informed today that I have an interview on December 20th for a job in Winnipeg :-D

 

[Bullfrog]

That's great, man. Good luck!

 

[Scot4bz]

Good luck Ryan!

Thanks guys, just got home from the interview. I feel more confident this time then when I had an interview for the same job back in February, here's hoping. I'll find out after the holidays, they will make their decision by Monday, but with the holidays HR might take a week or so to approve it.

Hey guys! been a while, haven't followed the leafs too much as I've been busy fighting my depression that wont ever quit

 

[Damian]

Its good to have you back

 

[Bullfrog]

Hi Stebro, nice to see you. I hope things improve for you soon.

Just a random thought I had: I've been listening to "Tweeter and the Monkey Man" by the Traveling Wilburys. I've actually been listening to the Headstones' cover of it because I've been in a rocking out mood, but that's beside the point.

Ever heard that song? There's lots of discussion out there that it's a tribute/parody/gesture to Bruce Springsteen due to the many Springsteen references in the song. I thought you'd think that was interesting due to your admiration for the boss.

Too many Springsteen references for it to not be on purpose.

 

[OldTimeHockey]

Great bloody song! One of the only songs out there where both the original and the cover are fantastic in completely different ways.
