It is rediculous that we can't print a few cartoons without some nut filing a suit against the newspaper, but on the other end of the spectrum, the Western Standard knew what they were getting into when they printed those cartoons.

I tell my friends that I want to join the Army because of the looming terrorist threat that Canada faces, and they all call me rediculous, 'cause Canada has never done anything to terrorists. Some people just don't get it.

Yeah, gas is only going to get more expensive.

You just gotta get out and run every day. Don't over exert yourself, becuase getting an injury can throw off your running schedule, and possibly cause you to stop. So just do little 3, 3.5k runs until that becomes easy, then step it up a level. Speaking of running, I gotta start getting back in...
