Jeeze Tex, you had to go and get so smart on us.

http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/players/6685/news So it's true that after a team wins a game they go out and piss it up?

Haha I saw was watching the game on and off and I switched it back and for a second I saw Billy in the stands decked out in D-Rays gear. I was like WTF now I come on here and I find out why. Billy's a PIMP!

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 09:31 PM) interesting i drove to and back from canada over my spring break. I was at teh border for under a minute both ways. All they asked was where i was going and why. No checking of birth certificates, nothing. When I entered the US they asked for ids from my dad and I, checked the trunk for dirty bombs and let us go. On our way back into Canada they were just worried about if we had to pay duties on the stuff we got, and he got mad at my dad for not knowing exactly how much we bought, so my dad just said "b****, please" and we sped across the border in our Ferrari.

QUOTE(EvilMonkey @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 08:59 PM) At the risk of having LCR saying that I see conspricies everywhere, notice how the story never mentions that he is a Democrat until the 7th paragraph? Isn't that usually noted in () right after their names first appears, such as 'Senator Ford (D)? I noticed that too.

Laugh now, cry later when we get owned by Mullholland.

Also Canada is now likely to use the same rules on Americans coming in, in the future. http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/20...orts050405.html I don't like the headline, saying we are "retaliating".

This is funny news our auditor general (like our 1 person appointed to overview everything) released a report on our security measures and here's what she had to say about our giving out of passports. http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/20...rity050405.html Doesn't sound like getting a passport really means anything anyways.

I saw a headline dumb like Million Dollar Boxer dead for this story.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 02:29 PM) Funny screen shot from the NY Times. Evidently they hadn't quite finished the article when it went up on their site the first time. http://powerlineblog.com/archives/TimesPope.php oops

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,152478,00.html Reality television show is maybe involved.

http://apnews.myway.com/article/20050405/D899BTI80.html Apparently by 2008 Americans will need passports to re-enter country from Canada, Mexico, Panama and Bermuda, and Canadians will need passports to enter. More info at link.

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 10:19 AM) Perhaps that has to do with the fact that Canada's quasi-socialist government takes more and more money out of its citizens' pockets every year? Didn't stop me and my pa from heading to see the Baseball in Minneapolis last summer. -are they all socialists? also the new Canadian proposed budget will have tax cuts! http://www.cbc.ca/news/background/budget2005/

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 10:14 AM) Might that have something to do with the exchange rate being strongly in American's favor since the mid-'90s? :rolly That's the point in that article, even as Canada's dollar has been catching up travel has not proportionately increased.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 10:02 AM) The downside to this is millions of people everyday cross these borders for work and play. It hurts the local economies when shoppers cannot reach the stores. Tourism is one of the few areas of our economy that continues to be strong. Hotels, restaurants, airlines, and other tourism industries cannot outsource these jobs to China, Mexico, and other countries. More at link I remember starting a thread on how from Canada to the US has reached new lows, cant' seem to find it though. I don't think making Canadians get passports will help that. Oh here it is US$ decline hasn't encouraged foreign shoppers

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 10:00 AM) Nor do I, as long as Americans will require the equivalent documentation to get into Canada. Hey as long as you got a baggie of weed, you're in.

Women should be in the kitchen, where they belong.

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 09:10 AM) I don't have a problem with that. Neither do I. Little bit of a hastle but if it could improve security which I assume is its purpose, then great.

http://www.canada.com/national/nationalpos...3a-c7e4bca5f53a What the hell is a passport?

Haha!

I'd just like to point out the fact that that is not true. Go Sox! And Capn12 did we argue about Koch in the past? Can't remember, it seems all the nuclear waste in Canada has rotted my memory to s***.
