    CF 18 loses parts over Lake Ontario

    Me too! But replace Anthro with Geography.  I'm usually heavily involved with Welcome(Frosh) Week, last year I was one of the main planners, and I was back at school two weeks early! This year I have said "Screw it, I'm going to the airshow!!" I'm 52 days away from the start of welcome...

    CF 18 loses parts over Lake Ontario

    Indeed!  Apparently it flew over my parents house in Mississauga. It's almost Airshow time at the CNE.....I'm going to it for the first time since I've been in university (traditionally the Labour day weekend is school stuff for me)

    Operation Ration Man

    Same with reality TV......everyone is trying to think of the new 'survivor' yet they keep creating stupid shows that only people who have nothing better to do with their time watch.

    I worked and then I worked some more!  If I didnt have to work my full-time job I would have been in Ottawa with some friends.

    What's the size of your......hometown?

    I'm originally from Mississauga....the population is around 500,000 something.  But now I live in Hamilton which is fairly close to Mississauga.  I hate Mississauga now though, its turned into a suburban hell!

    Live 8...a success??

    I agree with the charging people and giving the money away to the countries that need it. BUT there are other parts of the world that need the money too.  There is poverty everywhere, not just in Africa.  Paul Martin did say that he cannot promise the .7% (or whatever number it was) GDP...

    High school education is obsolete

    Very true.  At least in high school you dont spend a min. of $20,000 (BA) to get that piece of paper.  I'm becoming a very very bitter 4th year because now I'm seeing how hard it is to find a job in my field. I'm doing a Hons. BA however, since my major (geography) has science courses (the...

    High school education is obsolete

    I wish I never went to my prom.  I could have gone on some sort of trip with the money I spent on prom (the ticket alone was $85).  I liked the getting dressed up part (I was into the sports and rarely ventured out of pants) and the pre-party with all the pictures.  But after dinner was served...

    Kids working!

    Exactly!  Working at a young age has it benefits, and I will have my children hold a part-time job.  However it wont be at the extent that I did.  And I'm having some fun now (first two consecutive weekends off in a row....something I haven't experienced in a LONG time!) I should also add that...

    Kids working!

    If I wanted to be a trades person or a service industry person for my career than I wouldn't "have" to work. However, I decided at a fairly young age that I wanted to go through university.  My parents told me that if I wanted to go, I would have to find the money myself (and Im still working 2...

    High school education is obsolete

    There were some girls at my prom that literally wore dyed wedding gowns.  A girl at my work spent roughly $1000 on prom this year.....and she was just the date.

    Kids working!

    I feel that kids should be able to work non-risky jobs, HOWEVER they should have a min. amount of hours imposed on them (like a shift a week).  I've been working since I was 12, and now that I'm almost ready to enter the 'real world' I felt cheated of having a "real" teenaged life.  I had to...

    High school education is obsolete

    I'm currently in my last year of undergrad and I am seeing firsthand the effect of parents/teachers pushing all students to go to university/college.  There are way too many students in the post-secondary system (esp. university) that SHOULD NOT be here.  Yes, everyone has a right to get higher...
