I heard you guy's were having a bit of a heat wave.
I also tend to use as many of our Government services as possible. Being in th 40%+ tax bracket encourages me to recoupe the money and services offered by the crooks in Ottawa.
:canuk: Ooohhh Canada.

Darren: that does sound interesting

Peter: don't remind me about taxes.... *starts to tear*
i don't know if i'd call it a heatwave really but it was a nice kick in the pants maybe we will have a really summer this year. maybe i should have said we'll have a socalli winter. someone here just said Calgary got snow recently is that true? :yikes:

i love Canada :canuk:

Peter, apparently your portion of the warm weather was misappropriated. It's 93 degrees F right down here right now. (where is that sweaty smiley anyway?)
'89 Astro, 4.3L, TBI. Minor intake and exhaust mods. Rebuilt 700R4 trans (by me). Corvette servo, 0.5" boost valve, police grade 1-2 accumulator spring (shifts fast and solid). B&M stacked plate trans cooler. Bilstein shocks. Belltech sway bars front and back. New head unit, speakers and subwoofer. Needs paint and a new headliner.

name's Steve
I can't remember all I've forgotten about that....

I feel your pain. We are getting it too. Usually here on the east side of the Cascades, we don't see as much rain and our temps are significantly warmer. We've had a ton of rain and the threat of frost during most of May.

Today's expected high is supposed to be 15c. Last year on this day it was 31c.
