Offhoff I'll have to agree with you there, generalized education of the masses in north america, um ..... blows when compared to the rest of the world. Then they sit back and wonder why they start to lose when the markets are all opened up. As for media types the Style guide is usually buried in their bottom drawer. Thats about my extent of technical grammar. I am very good at speaking english and I have impeccable grammar, but I couldn't tell you the rules of grammar. Its like asking Michael Schumacher to repair the race cars he drives. anyways, me liking scuba more bigger from long time. So there. I like the way Indian people in UAE speak english "I am wanting for you to have a very nice day!" "Why thank you!!!" |
as for cutting a square hole I leave it up to Chip Foose

Thank the Ontario gov't for that. Teachers can no longer deduct marks for grammer and spelling on work. For that matter, although there are ways around it, I can't deduct marks for late assignments. If it's due in October and I get it in June I'm still supposed to give it the mark it would have received in Oct. |
Lol Offhoff. Calm down. It was a joke. I know exactly what LASER stands for. I do find it comical that you're trying to boast about your writing skills and slag off immigrants in the same post.
I am extremely impressed that you can recite things and use encyclopedia as well. While at the same time offering no original thoughts on the topic at hand. |

Clearly the only way to settle this is a street luge competition, but Offhoff has to use cartidge bearings because they suck so much he'll have a huge handicap. |

my favourite (ie. frustrates me the most) redundant acronym is when people ask for your 'PIN number'. Argh!
PS. I concur. The hebrew language has acronyms all over the place. That's part of the reason it's such a rich language. |

In your line of teaching thats going to be a really stale cake though!

Some cyclist you are.

Ok, I gotta jump in here. If anybody has (or knows or anyone who has) those Briko Stinger sunglasses that Cipo is sporting in that picture (from the link above), PLEASE sell them to me. I happen to think those are the most badass shades aver made.
Also, when in NYC a couple months ago, I went by Trackstar and they had a wicked tshirt with Merckx's face silkscreened on, and underneath the words 'Eddy is watching'. I loved that. |
I put my brooks on my commuter so now I can break it in on the way to and from work. Its already more comfortable than my regular commuting saddle and its still hard as a rock. Now my bike is red, yellow, blue, white, green (the saddle) and black. Just FYI.

I feel so dirty. |

Just got home from the Bloor Cinema (saw "This Film Is Not Yet Rated".. good times).. what a lovely night for a ride. The temperature isn't too cold, pretty calm winds and the snow is making everything seem oh so quiet. I kinda wish I hadn't just come straight home!
As a side note, my gf got a taxi home while I rode, and as per usual I showed up at the house at the same time as her. I wasn't even hurrying. I got a red light at Bathurst right away so I assumed they were long gone. |

Due to lack of interest I am passing on the torch for organizing a trip to Forest City. Somebody else do it. What gives? I thought a bunch of you guys wanted to go?
|
I thought a bunch of people wanted to go on the snow ride too. Nuff said. :p
|
Danhalen: My interest hasn't waivered one bit. I have no problem organizing this trip, but it just means y'all will have to wait until the outing suits my schedule. I'll tell you right now that if this falls on my shoulders, I'll most likely follow through sometime between right....now, and the 15th of Feb.
