NB was not listed as a Province for a few months on one of the larger rental car companies last year..they said it was a printers error...I think they just forgot us.

Big Bang is like many american sitcoms...take an idea/storyline/premise and just repeat repeat etc as it is all based on advertising revenue and the advertisers don't want to let go of a good thing.

I love Big Bang Theory and have done from the beginning. I used to work in Medical Physics so appreciate the characterisation. As for running it's course no i don't think it has as it changes as the characters age and new ones are introduced.

Wow the Liberals have thought about something that I actually agree with . Gasp !!
"The Fair crossing the road plan".....Fines for people using a cell while walking into traffic at crosswalks. Finally !! However it's just a plan for now not law.

Have other PC Financial Bank account holders checked the website today to see the new name/new look?
It's all the same layout. Kind of disappointing.

Being on a scooter last night coming home from work likely saved me from being in a bad accident.
A car was speeding in the opposite direction at a high rate of speed for a 2 lane residential area, and couldn't go around a curve at the speed and crossed over into my lane, had I been in a car, I would have had nowhere to go and would have resulted in a serious collision, but luckily on the scooter, I was able to swerve enough to avoid being hit, but it was still a very close call.
Luckily a cop was at a red light one block up and caught the arse wipe.
One thing I hate about my shift is the commute home, people seem to think at 1am because there is so little traffic they can drive at high rates of speed, and I am sure some are drunk.
