Hello owls...............
Oh, MG.........it felt like driving in winter.
What a downpour!!! Is it raining cats and dogs at your end too?
And gas prices have gone sooooo up, hor? Aiyoh, I remembered paying like 37 cents. No such days liao. It finally hit the dollar mark. Most if not all gas stations has only three digits on their signboard so I think those signage people must be laughing to the bank. But of course I saw some cheapo stations, just use temporary signboard to accommodate the four digits. -
C$1 per litre?
wow.. i think we're happy if it goes below S$1.50 per litre here -
we're almost in the same time zone !!! ...Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:It's a Friday night (in Singapore, that is), so I believe everyone's out painting the town red.

No heavy rains yet today here, but it is cloudy and expected to rain later this afternoon and into the weekend. Just in time to screw up the weekend for us. Thank you, Mother Nature...
No kidding about gas prices!!! I'm surprised that there have not been riots about them yet. Here in the upper midwest, it's currently at about $2.60/gallon; I spoke with some friends living in the SF bay area in CA, and they're paying upwards of $3/gallon! Ridiculous!!!!
Good thing I do the 'park-and-ride' routine and take the bus to work. What about you? Do you drive all the way in to work?

Hey, Fatum!Originally posted by Fatum:we're almost in the same time zone !!! ...
I just checked your user profile and noticed you are from Saskatchewan, Canada. Cool! I'm in Minnesota, by the way.
How did you end up in Canada, if you don't mind my asking?
MG -
But you have less km to drive mah. Don't know about you but one way for me is about 20km. I take about 30 mins, which by Cdn standard, not bad already, in terms of commuting time. Some spend hours on the road ah.Originally posted by the Bear:C$1 per litre?

it's all Dubbya's fault... seriously..

It was either him or Kerry.Originally posted by the Bear:it's all Dubbya's fault... seriously..

It's sad that the presidential elections in this country have degenerated into having to choose between the lesser of two evils.
MG -
lesser?
well, i would take Bush as a more dangerous and evil bastard...
and Big Oil on his sideOriginally posted by Meia Gisborn:It was either him or Kerry.

If you're referring to the one-word entries, Gedanken and I found out the hard way yesterday that hitting the spacebar while the "OK" button was highlighted was the equivalent of clicking the "OK" button.Originally posted by the Bear:check out the shoutbox... it's pretty freaky
Is that the "freakiness" to which you were referring? Or am I completely missing something else?
MG -
