Dear Canadians: You are no longer welcome at TFP
It's not anything personal, but it's time for an intervention. Clearly you guys have a problem and as your friends, it's time for us to help you deal with your issue.Study: Canada is most Web-addicted nation

Since I was born in Maine and my mother was from Missouri, as are half my relatives, this ban doesn't apply to me, right?
I don't twitter and I no longer use MSN or Yahoo messenger, I only chat on Facebook now. I am slightly addicted to Lexulous on Facebook, Facebook, Fark and TFP. I used to Netflix until they stopped allowing me to pay by Paypal. My Paypal account is only funded by my bank and Netflix blocks eChecks. So, screw them.

Molson Canadian 67 is a dollar off for a 6 pack at the LCBO this week. I got one of those and a bottle of Crown Royal (750 ml. in the blue bag!) for New Years.

Now you're talking BadNick. You want to get 18,000 fans into an arena? Want to get great ratings on a Sunday afternoon (usually the death period for televised sports - unless you're American i.e. don't get me going about weekend afternoon NHL games)? organize a bonspiel, and put it on TV.
Oh yeah.

You Betcha!!! Let them do whatever they wish and never treat them badly. Remember they live in the frozen tundra. And they make tfp a better place!

Fat guys from Quebec in tiny red speedos is essential. It like adding cayenne pepper to rice pudding. Without it the day would be boring and you wouldn't have anything to talk about in the bar afterward. Just sit back and enjoy the spectacle.
I've been constructing my own crokinole board for a while now. They cost too much in the games stores. Building a crokinole board Crokinole Board Project
