Agreed, Pepsi has always had a bit of a metallic tasted to me as well. Coke has always been my go-to for mix, but I've recently switched to Zevia Cola and it's an adequate substitute.

Rae's Bistro is up in North Kildonan and the food is fantastic.

Not to mention how unpredictably a football can bounce.

That sounds suspiciously like socialism... and heaven forbid you have anything that resembles socialism in capitalist Alberta.

Some people seem to think that more scoring makes the game more exciting for the casual fans. In my mind the biggest issue with the CFL is marketing. The teams, the league, and their TV partner (currently TSN) need to do a better job with marketing. Bell Media could use CTV to advertise CFL games on TSN to get the word out more, but the biggest issue is that the teams in the bigger markets aren't doing anything to draw people to the games. Perhaps the new owner in BC will do a better job out there, but Toronto and Montreal are still big question marks. The rule changes, especially the thought of going to 4 downs, are mostly gimmicky and don't help the core problem of marketing, or lack thereof.

They are more dangerous in the sense that they can do a lot more damage a lot more quickly.

I don't know what First Ring Daily is... Based on some of the stuff that he's done lately and things I've read about how he got to where is it, it kind of fits a pattern. Yes, I believe you are correct that it would be market manipulation rather than insider trading.

Probably... but when has that ever stopped him before?

I don't think he's actually planning to buy Twitter, he's using this news to drive up the value of the stock and then he'll dump what he already bought and say something about owning twitter not being the right thing for him to do now because of X.

In my area, they were horrible the last couple of years, but this year was a definite improvement, other than some of the tree branches that they took out in some peoples' front yards.

I've noticed over the past couple of years that most of what the Repulicans keep accusing the Democrats of doing are things that they are doing themselves...

Roblin Grill in Charleswood is fantastic. If I lived in Charleswood or St. James, I'd be there often. Delicious, mostly homemade food there.

This is the 2nd time that I've heard her speak (the first time was regarding the convoy protest or something else related to the pandemic, I can't remember at the moment exactly what it was). I have a lot of respect for her. This is the type of person who is good to have in a position of power within the goverment.

Yeah, it's the part where it gains value "because someone wants that string of ones and zeros" that I struggle with because it's all a scam as far as I'm concerned. All it took was a small group of people to say "let's take this and pass it around, selling it for a profit to each other and eventually some sucker will see the 'value' going up and jump in and buy it from us, then we can do it again". Same issue with NFTs... there's no actual value there other than what's been artificially created by a bunch of con artists.

Is it even a commodity though? There's nothing tangible to it, it's literally just a bunch of electronic ones and zeros.

I would say that moving 2nd base is equivalent to moving the hashmarks. Going to 4 downs would be like going to 4 outs, or 4 strikes. If those changes were being proposed for baseball, you can sure as hell expect fans to be up in arms about it.

I believe the term she used was "backdoor socialism"... as if helping people was a bad thing. The irony in it all is that this is probably a really good thing for the CPC because it gives them time to get their house in order before the next election.

My daughter has already said that she's going to keep wearing hers no matter what the rest of her class/school is doing.

LOVE the God of War games. The original series on PS3 with the Greek Mythology was fantastic, and the move over to Norse mythology was brilliant.

Fair point

Is it better for him to be assassinated, or to be captured and actually tried at The Hague?

Re-read what he wrote... In 30 years of journalism, including 10 of those years in crime, some of the worst people he met were in the Jets locker room. The amount of time he was doing sports is never mentioned, just that there were some really bad people on the team at some point in time through his 30 years as a journalist.

Had it about a month ago with similar symptoms to what you described. Got a little worse over the course of 3 days, day 4 felt much better and then it hit hardest on day 5. All in all, not too bad, but sinus congestion and a little trouble breathing for that one day was enough for me to know that I was very glad to have had the vaccine.

Looks like she's coming home too.

It was required to clear the protesters... If that's done, the emergency is over and they don't need it anymore. I actually think it's really good that their revoking it so quickly. Takes away the opportunity for those opposed to it to say that Trudeau is abusing his power and taking advantage of the situation.
