Wow! I thought it was a $700 chair when you bought it. Maybe it
appreciated in value with your fat ass sitting on it for a year.


So he does buy from Walmart! Why am I not surprised. The elite looney
left loves to tell everyone else how to live, seems only so they can
cheat themselves.. It's the new "carbon credits". "I got a guy to buy
union, so I don't have to." ;) Too funny, it's an Goreism.....


He also drives a Toyota.


Speaking of Toyota ...


Read today that Toyota is reporting a loss for the first time since
something like the 1940's.
One of the big wigs at Toyota was rambling on about how they are going
to
have to change their way of doing business, become "lean and muscular"
in
order to compete.


Boy. Sounds familiar.

I'm going to think about getting my RAV4 stateside.
Toyota sales in this province is up over last year...you just can't get a
deal locally.


Don, how do you come out in tax/tarriffs on something like that?

************************************************** *********

The same as when I imported Tom's boat trailer.
First a $206.00 processing fee for imported vehicles (paid at border)
13% HST (6% GST portion paid at border... 7% PST portion when I
register at home)
Then I have to go to an authorized inspection station to make sure the
vehicle meets our standards.
Then a provincial safety check
Finally, I'll get to register the vehicle
As long as the vehicle is made in North America...no duty.
( the exchange rate can add approx 20% to my costs after converting to CDN
$.)

It's the benefits they're not paying, along with the lower wages.

A Rav4? I guess it suits you.


You really have a hard-on to sniff my butt.
Would you like me to FedEx an old pair of skivies down to keep you satisfied
for the holiday season?


I'd expect that kind of talk from one or two members of the group, but you
weren't one of them. Is the Salty and slammer stuff rubbing off on you?

The personal insults and name-calling don't do Canadians justice. The one's
I've met would never resort to such.

Are our companies reporting their first loss in 70 years?

Japan's exports dropped 27% in November.

Introduce them to Dingy Dan, and then make your observations.

Old but still good.
Here's one you may like:
An American, a Japanese and a Canadian were sitting naked in a sauna
when suddenly there was a beeping sound. The American pressed his
forearm, and the beep stopped. The others looked at him questioningly.
"That was my pager he said. "I have a microchip under the skin of my
arm."

A few minutes later a phone rang. The Japanese fellow lifted his palm
to his ear. When he finished he explained "That was my mobile phone, I
have a microchip in my hand."

The Canadian felt decidedly low-tech, but not to be outdone, he
decided he had to do something just as impressive. He stepped out of
the sauna and went to the toilet. He returned with a piece of toilet
paper hanging from his butt. The others raised their eyebrows and
stared at him. The Canadian finally said "Well, will you look at that!
I'm getting a fax."
