Mr. Luddite
- show quoted text - Our cold is the result of artic air coming down over western parts of Canada, so it's really your fault! *:-) "It's weird that we, being well south of you, can be 30 degrees F colder than you." They claim because we stick out so far into the ocean that it has a moderating effect on us. It we could just keep the Gulf Stream from heading east we'd be as mild as England. |

- show quoted text - "But for a teensy weensy ribbon of terra firma you would be completely surrounded by water. Aint that so?" I've stated many times that I live on a peninsula..attached to a larger peninsula..that is itself attached to a bigger peninsula again. (province). Roughly 18 miles keeps us from being separated from the common continentals. You can think of us as a bit of Paradise at the end of the road. |

You shouldn't use big, obscure words like peninsula or province with morons like FlaJim. |

One of the Disney ships makes a Canadian Coastline Cruise leaving from New York with stops at St. John and Halifax. But, almost $6000 for the two of us for only five days seems a bit excessive. I'm thinking it would be much cheaper and about as much fun to RV it up there. It's only about 1150 miles - two days travel time, staying off the toll roads. Wonder if there's a ferry from St. John's to Halifax. Could be fun. http://tinyurl.com/juhmeno -- Ban liars, tax cheats, idiots, and narcissists...not guns! |
