PCG, thanks for your reply. Just to clarify, I work full-time as a contractor through an agency and only get paid for the days I work. However, my current contract is due to expire July 9th, around there and then I have to bid on the position again. I will most likely get the contract but...

Looks like someone who might have been attempting to attack the convoy going over the bridge? I guess I‘m wondering did he let off the explosion or did someone shoot at him? Suicide bomber?

APTN has obtained video footage shot by insurgents, showing operations carried out against coalition forces in Iraq. One sequence shows someone dressed in black running towards a bridge; seconds later the figure is lost in a cloud of dust caused by an explosion. Who is this person in black...

Portcullisguy, what does that mean to a person whose indirect employer is the gov and is requiring time off work for basic? I‘m a contractor working for the gov and if all goes well with my files, I could be off to basic this summer but getting the time away from a contract could be an issue...

If you have a full time job, I say keep it and go Reserves. That‘s my situation at the moment. I have a good paying full time job that I‘m not ready to give up so I‘m heading into the army part time for now. Just my opinion.

That would be awesome. There‘s lots of open space out near my neck of the woods. :D

All the best Gorgon. :)

Some of you are probably grimacing in pain right now but it‘s not what you think. ;) British vets find 28 golf balls in dog‘s stomach MANCHESTER (AFP) - It was the mysterious rattling sound from the 18-month-old German Shepherd‘s stomach which first alerted the British vet to what might...

It‘s a pic of the direction the Leafs will take against the Flyers... down.

Heh, nice pic. Someone in my office building hung up a sign near the washrooms that reads "Sens suck. Go Leafs Go." so I printed out the pic and hung it up next to it. Hehe. Go Flyers!

Came down to goaltending in my opinion. I like what a colleague said to me this morning, "Replace Lalime with Svend Robinson because we need a goaltender that can steal one once in a while".

I‘m running Windows 2000 and recently downloaded MSN 6.1 and I‘m not experiencing any problems whatsoever.

I remember that. They got robbed too because the officials didn‘t call a penalty on Gretsky. The only other time the Leafs have done well is when they have faced the Senators. Congratulations Leafs but I hope you got some gas left in the tank because your next meeting with Flyers is going to...

Thanks to Lalime for putting the team in a hole.

Fadel says he was beaten and burned in Iraq CTV.ca News Staff Describing the experience of being held captive in Iraq, freed Canadian hostage Fadi Fadel says he was kicked, beaten and burned with cigarettes by his abductors. Fadel arrived in Amman, Jordan on Saturday, after being released...

LOL! You know, they need to impose some sort of minimum sentence like that. It would definitely put a stop to these sorts of disgusting offences. The death penalty is definitely too easy.

It will be interesting to see what happens after June 30th.

Sad. :( Hopefully he didn‘t feel any pain but then again, a bullet in the neck wouldn‘t kill you instantly, would it? Anyway, never a good thing to lose a fellow paisano. I hope he had the opportunity to kick his abductors in the nads at some point during captivity. RIP.

Hooahh!!
