:rofl: sweet jesus on a piece of toast. 

I'm familiar with the terms "gross generalization"  -  like, I could say, "all cops are a**holes" doesn't mean it's true for all - but there you have it.  Gross generalization. As far as attention seeking goes - I'm not looking for attention - just trying to point out that it's unfair of you to...

sorry ;D - just don't like being lumped in with a bunch of headcases simply because I was unfortunate enough to be given one of the most popular names for girls in the 70s - probably why it seems like all the crazies are named Tanya.

I find that particularly offensive.  Crazy happens under all sorts of names thank you very much. that aside, points 1-4 are pretty solid.

Ah congratulations!  I know you've been waiting forever and ever for this.  Good luck and I'll probably see you there.

Good luck :) 

hahaha planning on the great career, though no doubt I'll complain a little. ;)

I did corporate sales for Aliant.  People who don't pay for their device aren't normally very careful with it in my experience.

I won't know til I get sworn in on the 14th.

Be sure when you go to BMQ to tell the medical staff of your conditions - you can't take pills that are not prescribed to you.  They will likely be confiscated as they're not in your name - you'd  be going to the MIR and would be given meds there.  Were you evaluated by your Dr and diagnosed...

I like Heart of Oak.  the baby used to fall asleep to it.  No lie, when we were at the Battle of the Atlantic ceremonies in '07 it lulled him to sleep. Even with the band marching past the stroller.

Great advice Occam, I had to tell a few customers this tidbit after enounters with the toilet, sink, washer, puddle, etc...  as long as you take the battery out right away and don't try to turn it on you're normally fine. 

They're the exact same thing now, since the buy out.  I was referring to the pre Bell-Aliant days (even going back as far as MT&T) the biggest thing that sucks about Aliant and Bell or Bell-Aliant is that there is no cap on the cancellation fee - it's $20 per remaining month in the contract. ...

I've actually had all 4 providers at one point or another over the last 10 years. Aliant - never had a problem, dropped call, but I used to work for them so I had people on the inside taking care of me.  Others weren't that lucky during/ after the strike. Rogers - living in Nova Scotia using a...

touché, guess I'm grouped into that lot eh?

here.  :nod:

pretty sure that is him!  I remember my mom talking about her aunt Eugenie (spelled Uginie in the census) very cool thank you :)

It does sound really odd.  Not overly surprised though, if they were hard up for people I can see how they may have gone back and if the medical discharge reason wasn't 'that' serious, conscripted him back into service.  Or he was released to recover from injury/illness and brought back into the...

Wow, well, glad to be able to entertain AND inspire ;D

Congrats Gary - hope to see you there!
