Spiffy, You willl have to do some policing when the gifts are picked. Why? Assume there are 15 males, 15 females, 10 female gifts, 10 male gifts, and 10 neutral gifts. Now assume that the women pick all the neutral gifts and 5 women's gifts; you are left with (for the men) 10 male gifts and 5...

Talk about misleading titles - I thought you were talking about the Ford Tempo ! :D

CDN Tire sells Michelin, so it would be interesting to see if there IS a warranty. BTW I did a search on Michelin X-Ice, and one of the review places rated them highly. As always, though, taken with a grain of salt - did someone pay for the review?

Isn't bond_james_bond bad enough ? :p

Peace Esco!....I was just having some fun. :D

Roland, there's a classic phrase for it: "Shit Disturber". :rolleyes:

Techman, Techman, Techman !!! Taken out of context, yes, it sounds strange, but within context it means I can count on Muscleman Roland to beat up on anyone who dares to disturb me......which is not a good thing as I am already disturbed :D :cool: :p

Thanks Roland ! I needed a laugh today !!! :D Nice to know I can borrow your muscle !

Thanks. I'm hoping that Jade is still there. It still burns me that some SOB went and picked up the copy she left for me with the DJ. I could have had it months ago.

Techman knows me well enough to know I was kidding (I hope) ! I have often referred to myself as his nemesis :)

Techman: I have always agreed with your posts (except when it comes to smoking) as I find you pretty rational, but I read this one in horror - you STOLE a new monitor from work ? :eek: Shame on you ! :( BTW don't worry about Esco!; he's just an armchair separatist, inciting the troops from...

Editor (Don) Corleone: cut the guy some slack; at least he's trying. BTW isn't his use of "autres" incorrect as it implies that Montreal is a small town as well ? My French is not good enough when it comes to fine nuances like that, so I have to rely on your editorial skills.

Zoom ! Zoom !

Have a great birthday Ronnie, despite the busy schedule.

I'm surprised you did not recommend the J. Peterman Siberian Coat, as featured in one of the unseen episodes of Seinfeld. :p

Check the posts by metoo4 and EB. They essentially freeze some money on your card (usually unrelated to how much you paid for the room), just in case you use the mini-bar, restaurant, etc. I was told by a check-in clerk at a hotel once that (when paying about $130 for a room) they freeze $300...

There goes that theory. Okay, here's another: A 'baker's dozen" is 13. Reason: bread was initially sold by weight, and the net weight on the package was that of 12 loaves of bread before baking. However, while bread is baked it loses weight due to evaporation of water, so to make up for the lost...

Check the weights on the packages - they are probably nice round figures. Do you want skinnier hot dogs or fatter buns so the numbers are equal. Do you really want me to tell you what to do with the 10th bun ? :D

It is wise to stick with one pharmacy (e.g. Shoppers) as they track all your medication and can advise you about drug interactions better than doctors can.

If you are caught, the cheese will be confiscated, especially if it is unpasteurized. I suggest ice wine (around $45/bottle), but make sure the people you give it to know it is a dessert wine. I took a bottle to a friend in Texas, and his feedback was, "boy, was that wine sweet!".
