    Welcome to Canada Starby, if you don't like the weather, wait a minute. ;)

    I am having a weird day, the kid's finally went back to school today, after being sick for a week, I'm still coughing and sniffling, and Wiggy is working nights. I need a vacation.

    I'll call you later if you're not feeling too bad Alty, since Wiggy is doing the night shift.

    New England eh Biggie? Hmmm, I think I spent a wkd there one day... oh no... that's a Barry Manilow song. LOL! I know it's a beautiful place there! :)

    Its not too bad :)

    I like the outdoors stuff - camping, bonfires, hikes, even have myself a dirt bike :)

    Loads of fun being outside... During the year I'm in school in New Jersey - not a great place :(

    Currently keeping myself entertained watching videos of my guitar idols...

    What happened? I wrote a post, I posted the post and the post disappeared, jeesh, weird things are happening here lately. Allot of people have lost posts and greenie squares, it's a bit weird. Do de do de do de do de (scary background music) :)

    Starby, give me a call later, the kids should be in bed by 9pm, so anytime after that is great. I should go make some dinner now, I'll be back later.

    Biggie, it was nice meeting you, I hope you decide to hang around, things can get pretty exciting around here, just ask M aka Friend4U. Starby keep these two in line while I'm gone, I'll lend you my whip. :D :p :eek:

    Oh I am missing the bonfires... the pit fires in my backyard... just sitting outside, especially the evenings! My dog is so sick of sitting in the house too! Jersey would be a little crazy for me, but Connecticut sounds like my kind of place! At least there are TREES! HAHA! That is what I always think about when I think of New England. We do have some pretty places in the town that I live too though. It's absolutely beautiful especially in the Fall, when the colors change.

    Yeah, I built a fire pit last month. It was a nice distraction when I was home for the weekend. On Sunday my buddy came up and we cut up a HUGE pile of dead wood just waiting for this weekend.

    I've never been to Canada even though I'm French Canadian... I suppose at some point I should make it up there...

    I got lucky with firewood this yr. My bro gutted several houses, and I've got dibs on the wood that was saved. I just need someone to cut it up, but there is a lot of it. Should last all summer. It's not the same as having good cedar or pine, but it will work. French Canada is almost as far away from me as you can be in Canada. I'm in Alberta. I'm sure it's nice there too though.

    I'm in the city, only about 80,000 people, so it's not too crazy. It's a bit different here because there is a lot of space, and there are lots of communities. The one I live in is the first one when we became a town, so there are tons of trees, and really nice old houses. It's not crazy like some of the other communities. I even plan trips to Walmart and make sure I get everything I need in one visit, so I don't have to go there again soon, because that is the crazy traffic part of town. LOL!

    Well I live in a city too technically, about 70-80,000 people. But that's not really what I meant by city. I go to school in Newark which is somewhere in the 500,000+ region - its pretty bad.

    Well I used to live in Calgary. I'm sure almost everyone has heard of that, because of the Stampede. It's hitting a million and a half, and that just drove me insane. Although I lived on the outskirts (well at that time) and it took forever to get anywhere, and you reeeaaalllyyy had to pay attn when driving. It was like a race track most of the time. In fact I could see where I worked from my balcony door, but it usually took me close to 30 minutes to get there.

    Where has M gone? Ahhh, probably time for his morning meeting! How did the raise thing go M. Did you make them all happy?

    What school do you go to Biggie? What are you taking?
