If you do make it out, just let me know. A meeting with the Sloth and his (much) better half would be a highlight.
We have plenty of mountains. I know you like to run up and down them.
There's some of them in the background of this pic that was taken (not by me) very close to my house...
Dude. The only problem with that visit is I may not come back. You got room for 2? Western Canada looks outrageous.
Unrelated and random, but...Tupac was amazing.
It is just true.
We have room for, like, 20 million more. Outside of about 3 cities, there's nothing but space. You'd like that.
Tupac would've, too.
Sounds a lot like L.A. except its Spanish, (obviously), Korean, Vietnamese, Arabic, and a few others!! English is "VERY" low on the totem pole...
And the French Canadian ladies....ooooo lala
I married one. She's waaaay out of my league.
And the French Canadian ladies....ooooo lala
Especially the ones that liked camping, going to car races, and partying like rock stars.
Those were the days...
wow, that would be weird to have bills made of plastic. Yeah the change is a lil bit of a pain. And probably most folks here use debit cards most of the time for purchases. Some of em you can just tap, or at least that's what I've seen on TV. Even just tapping your cell phone on sumpthin, but that is freaky to me. We do have a big problem, as I expect most places do, with phishers or scanners or whatever ya call em, where someone just walks past you and copies your card in your purse or wallet if it's not in one of those rfid things or whatever the initials are. Also things added onto card readers at gas stations to copy your card info and see your pin that you enter. Most POS still have pins to enter, but a lotta fast food places don't anymore. Maybe they dropped too many of the keypad thingies out the drive through windows. lol Not that I'm buying anything nefarious, but I like the anonymity of cash. No data warehouse storing every purchase I make.
For awhile so many places bugged you about signing up for their discount card, and they tried to make you give em your phone number to make a purchase. I don't get out much anymore, but I don't think that's as prevalent as it used to be. One of my fav comedians, John Pinette did a skit about that. Remember when ya could just go in a store, give em money and walk out with your stuff hehehe
Y'alls money is really pretty! I did look up images for Australia and NZ too. It really has always bugged me that our money is so ugly. Not that it really matters, but some is so pretty. I would love to visit so many places in Europe and other places that have ancient buildings etc. My son did get to go to the Ziggurat in Ur where Abraham was from, when he was deployed.
That's beautiful!! Just too bad it's so dang cold! I've only been to Canada one time. Before ya needed a passport. And it was just to cross into it and look at the lights at Niagra Falls from the Canadian side for about an hour. Only time I've ever been outta the country.
I don't do any trimming, or shaping, or fluffing of any wicks. Ever. I do cut rayon a triffle thicker than cotton & kinda spread it out a little. It wicks fine. I've used it in my Reo, & my regulated mods & there's no difference that I can tell. The only issue I have is that strange bit of background taste. I'll use it in a pinch, which is why I have a small box in my stash.

I just pull cash when I make a purchase with plastic. Most places here offer the option of getting cash in $20 increments up to $100 (I think it is) when you check out. No service charge like at an atm. If I want cash I just buy something small like breath mints or something I would get anyway. There are some places that don't accept cards at all or unless you spend over a certain amount.

Jup, that's how I would always get cash too. Only times I ever went to an ATM was when I had a drive through one right down the street for my bank, so there were no fees at all. I've always referred to the stores as first national walmart and first national HEB

Canada, per se, is, indeed, cold. We live in the most temperate part, though - identical weather to Seattle and Portland.
i would have said we never get any snow, but this winter has set records for the stuff (for us). A bizarre cold front settled in and stayed for weeks.
My wife does that - she stills likes walking around with a little mad money. Myself, I just found I could cut out all the middle work. Cash in bank. Cash goes from bank to vendor via card - no need for me to hold it temporarily.
As for security, I use a credit card I got specifically for this. $500 limit I pay off every month (so no interest charges), very good fraud detection and customer support (ie, I would never pay for fraudulent charges). It's with a bank I have no other dealings with, so no (or at least little) risk of collateral banking hacks or fraud. I also carry the card in a rf blocking pocket case, so no drive-by skimming of data.
There honestly isn't any place in my little world that doesn't take a card of some sort.
Having said all that, it's a personal peccadillo of mine, I freely admit
It was beautiful, truth be told, especially since it was a novelty.
Driving in a city with people who have no clue how to deal with it, however, is another story.
