Columbia... sounds like an interesting town. So the Ogopogo doesn't really exist? Bummer. So, what's it like up there?

Moc... we have the same thing here in the US... we have MPH and then under that its in K/h. So did Quebec used to use miles and feet and such? Interesting

Well its cold and nasty right now. And oh dear all the snow on the mountains has melted so snowboarding will have to wait even longer. But I guess people are still golfing brave souls. Whats it like whats it like...hmmmm nothing much...Just For Laughs Fest just ended, good stuff...Oh, and some kids burnt down Kelowna Secondary School, or one of them.

Kids burning down schools?!? What kind savages live up there? It's not too bad down here, we still get some decent days. But the wretched cold will be here soon.

Wasn't the first time. KSS has I think 5 buildings. I think. And this is the second building that has been burnt. New form of recreation for this jumpy town.

I see... perhaps the city should invest in an arcade or something.

Columbia · 11-19-2003, 12:49 PM

LOL. Oh dear Kelowna isn't so bad...try Surrey (sorry all you Surrey peoples), car theft capital of North America.

**Sijuki** · 11-19-2003, 01:25 PM

well Detroit here used to be the carjacking capital of North America, arson capital, murder capital, and I think one or two other undesirable capitals. But we've changed our image. To hell with our bad reputation. We're a nice city now. I just never expected such destruction north of the border. I thought that was what they didn't like us for?!?! :D

Columbia · 11-22-2003, 02:01 AM

Detriot? Murder capital? Nah. What about, like, Las Angelas or New York or one of them crazy cities? Canada's become some sort of bad-ass country. 'Cool', as a stand-up said. Lax drug laws, no enforcement...but we ain't so bad. When you're local newspaper's front page reads "Snowman sleeping on the Job" (refering to some blowup Frosty that won't stant straight up but lolls to one side), then you know you're okay to walk the streets.

snowmen sleeping on the job? that sounds like our county workers. Do they get union benefits too? :D
