and THIS is why we all hate Easterners...

I spent a year in Estevan called July and August in 1990. That town makes Honey Boo-Boo look like Stephen Hawking. I got a buddy who just moved there... Tattoo artist, of all careers.. I have to assume hes pretty much braindead by this point.. Then he's probably joined a cowboy church and is ready to vote for Brad Wall. "cowboy church" ? do tell. Since many Albertans are Texas wannabees, they tend to follow US fads. The "Cowboy Church" started in Texas and church goers are expected to dress as cowpersons and speak in supposed cowperson idioms, and the sermons are delivered in the same vernacular. The church now has branches in Sask and Alberta. Cowboy Church services are EXTREMELY serious stuff....they're in MB, too. Has nothing to do with "Texas Wannabees", and everything to do with the Western way of life, which is very much alive, especially out here in the foothills. Likewise, Cowboy Poetry is a very big deal...

Could probably move this to Gen Forum, eh?

Other than the Friends binge we're in the middle of right now, we never use Netflix unless we're completely out of ideas and extremely bored. Almost never use it...but for $8/month or whatever, why not have it, just in case......??

Gotham on Monday nights, Mercer/22 Minutes and SHIELD/Agent Carter on Tuesday nights, Nashville, Criminal Minds, Law and Order: SVU on Wednesday nights, Big Bang on Thursday nights, Saturday Night Live on Sat nights, and lots of curling, hockey, Blue Jays, and CFL, too. We watch a TON of TV and will never understand the cable cutters...

Wasn't that Kenton Thief? That's going back a little ways. Could NOT remember who it was, but yes that sounds about right....

I'm extremely pro-Manitoba, but I'm just gonna point out that I'm not in any way related to the oil and gas industry, but my starting salary here was an increase of about 1.5x and has gone up regularly since. Housing costs in MB are comparable to here, yet pay hasnt gone up with it.

and I heard that the biggest cashspiel of the circuit goes this weekend too.... or something to that effect anywayAttendance numbers similar to tour events, anyhow....

Is Sheets the one who was stealing from other players lockers, and had to get tuned in by an OL? I can't remember who that was.....

They'll work something out in TBay, and if not there, they'll find another place relatively close to Wpg. Keeping them at the MTSC is extremely temporary and I'm sure would work fine for a couple of years.

Brier ended for me on Thursday. Already stoked for Jonesy to romp through the Women's Worlds starting this weekend...

So you COULD care less? ...........

FYP.

Trust me, he's to blame for a LOT of things.....

I will be REALLY disappointed if we pick up Sheets for anything more than the league minimum as TCF.....

Just temporary till TBay gets their arena ready...

This Brier was a middling WCT event, at best...

I ******* hate kids today....so very much.

the last one. Sadly, it's literally a dying sport...

I have family who lived there for a long time, and I've been told that Montreal is all about the Habs, and Quebec City is all about the Alouettes....

Wiecek says they're on pace to do HALF the total attendance of 2009. Craziness!!

One of many reasons I dislike Alberta sports fans....

epic pants pooping from Carruthers rink this afternoon. At 5 losses, all but eliminated from the bonspiel...

the beauty of curling is that, more so than just about any sport, anyone can beat anyone on any given day. Carruthers got real hot for a week. McEwen has a sad and long history of choking in the provincials. Lost to Stoughton, lost to Fowler, lost to Carruthers. Is the #1 team in the world by a LOT, but can not win the Prov's to save his life...

He lost to Reid twice in a row at the select, hard to say he's the best when he can't beat his competition... You've hated him for years! Just last night you wanted to bash his head in with a pipe!
