LoL All I can say is the 4 days that I spent out there last weekend were some of the coldest I've felt... damn damp weather... Just glad I left the day it was hitting - 41 :P it was fun to watch the Balt's temp gauge go from - 35 when I left S'toon and slowly rise to -15 by Hanna and then hit -6 by the time I hit Calgary :P

Ouch, at least on the job part. I could email you an app if you want. You're a 3rd year, eh?

GRRR! Gas is going up again! I thought we would get a bit of a break, with all this "economic downturn" crap... stupid oil companies.

I don't think any deltas have a compass. I was kind of disappointed about that.

Yikes, what about Sask though. Don't they just sent you to court and maybe take away your license after 50kph above limit? I had a nice cop knock my speed down from 164 to 159 kph for a tik to save me the hassle so only $500 fine.

Usually thats what Sask cops do. I have a few friends that had the same done.
