I'm leaving Whitehorse on Saturday, and with the move a big part of my Languish schtick will die.

No longer will I be able to regale people with stories of how much colder it is here, how much more space we have, how beautiful it is.  No longer will I make my living my prosecuting Indians - now I will prosecute all different types.  No longer will I inspire Savonarola to write stories about my curling broom +1.

I can try to pick up the pro-Alberta schtick again, but that's a crowded field.

So maybe it's true - Languish really is dying. :(

That's ok. Edmonton is still pretty cold.

I'm pro-Alberta but i'm not an "Ethnic Albertan"... so that field isn't so crowded.  That being said Neil does talk it up with the power of ten men.

I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Caliga

I for one will miss your Yukon Schtick. :(

Aye - off to Edmonton.

I'll be offline starting on Friday.  If nobody hears from me by April 1st it means either Telus has screwed up our internet, our we were eaten by wolves on the drive down.

That's OK, we don't have any Albertans with a good schtick here, you can still carve out a niche easily.

It's a given that Telus will screw up your internet, you should switch to Shaw who also sucks, but less so than Telus.

Are Edmonton gaols huge enough? :huh:

Sadly no, Alberta converted all of their gaols to hoosegows a few years ago.
