I'm certain the hot weather has removed my appetite. :hmm:

:mmm: I like the film and the games so I'm sure that'll be amazing.

I hope so. It'll be my first encounter with Peking Opera beyond the occasional clip on TV, so I'm rather curious. :)

Bad news:

The arctic on the other hand is warming up twice as fast as the rest of the planet.

I guess on average, we're somewhere in the middle, which is always the place to be.  :)

If it's getting warmer in the north and colder in the south, that's a good thing for people living in the northern hemisphere(i.e. everyone on Languish).  :cool:

Everyone knows water flows down. Let the arctic melt, the water will all just flow south and fuck up those stupid upside down people.

Question for the Canucks--

My parents are camping through New Brunswick and Nova Scotia this week and next;  Dad was wondering if there are any gasoline price controls up in Soviet Canuckistan by the government, as he see the same price at the pump everywhere, and doesn't see the disparity of prices like down here, with everybody undercutting everybody else.  Is there a government mandate or something up there?  Do you guys do that?
