But, conspiracies are more funner....

When I was with my ex, we only got posted once but - had moved three times in two years while in the original city we met. When the posting came, we were already "pros" at finding places to live, with the difference being we bought. He was overseas when he got his posting message so I went ahead...

and Ahh, my friends. Not pro-liberal... or PC... or Green Party... or NDP... or anything, just 100% conspiracy theorist and it's workin' overtime in my brain! :P Present evidence! See, first we have this....  July 2nd...

Anyone else find it kind of funny that just days after the Queen had a chit-chat with him, alone -- that he hops onto his magical tour bus for a cross-country tour? And how that none of the other leaders were asked by the Queen to have private time with her?

You could practise in any kind of clothing you like -- when I did my test it was with giant, oversized coveralls... it's not so much the type of material you wear as opposed to just getting used to the fact you ARE wearing clothing in water. I spoke with the local YMCA and they said I could go...

Likely there are fewer women prisoners then men so you can shove more men into a prison with fewer resources. Also, there are some women's prisons that actually allow them to bring their infants and raise them in more of a 'home environment' for their first year I believe, if the woman was...

If it helps you with timelines, I put my application in June 15 and I'm going to BMQ end of August, 2010. Oh yea... That was June 15, of LAST year. I knew going it that this would be a long process. I've used the time to get ready for it. I've done the physical training to get ready for it, I've...

I had to laugh just a little bit on this one... couldn't resist! Have you heard of that list of 3 things to never talk about (at work, on a first date, with in-laws, etc...) unless you want to get into a heated debate? Politics, Religion and Money? Oh yea... I've learned to take that to heart...

We all have our strengths and skills which can be brought to the forces in one way or another, I believe. I've spoke with chaplains in the army a few times about this and my suggestion is maybe see if you can talk with one. I had a chance to sit with several a few times in Borden as that is...

Kenneling is not covered for basic training & your trades training. It is covered though, during the actual moving when posted by someone who is a registered kennel operator. However, I don't want to board my dog at any point in a kennel and will be going privately so it's going to come out of...

I'm in the same boat. I have a few people who may be willing to 'babysit' my dog (and I've offered a generous amount of money) until I get posted somewhere. Essentially I am banking on at least 6 to 8 months where she'll be in someone's home. When I get posted, I haven't decided yet where I'll...

Get the paper signed and then send it back.  If you don't send it back, then you have no chances at getting in at all. You may just be asked to provide additional documentation later on. You won't be going to basic right away anyways, right? Lots of time to finish your healing process, and...

Is this part of the Black Bear/Raven reserves training for aboriginal youth? I do believe there is some orientation the first week including some cultural training. I participated in a similar but not exact program. From the descriptions of what people are saying, this is what it sounds like a...

I can't answer on whether it is acceptable or not. I'm not in the forces yet. But, your question reminded me of something I had seen a few months ago which is a contest that happens each year. Here's the general info: http://www.cfpsa.com/en/psp/Sp/PhotoContestHome_e.asp And here is an...

I've been going barefoot outdoors as much as I can lately, hoping it'll toughen the soles of the feet. But, maybe this is something I can look into .... I seriously don't know if I could deal with the material between the toes though... like Pokiey, the toe socks just don't seem.... right, ya...

Oh, I understand that. I had to pay almost $35K in retraining myself and only received $4000 after leaving a $55 000 a year job...  there is no "ideal" amount of money. It's not easy coming back from injury and no amount of money is ever "enough" to recover whatever it was, that was lost.

How did you find them macknightcr? My friend in Italy is a marathon running coach, as well as her husband (he trains the olympic team there)... she just bought a pair at the NYC marathon when she was there a few weeks ago. She's been going into it gradually as well, just waiting for an update...

This doesn't have much to do with the last few replies but - with the original message.... I watched this program last week about millionaires and how this one guy won $3 million. He was only in his early thirties. He didn't think it would be enough to retire on, etc. but he still wanted to...

I think it has its time and place. Within the office environment where I once work, none of the 'managers' swore, except one. But, he never fit in there anyways. As staff? I usually would use the word crap or arse or feck.... or feckin' arse, if I was really mad. Saying the $h*t word was...

I taught grade 5/6 and grade 7... Oi vay... I could only imagine what happens when their penmanship gets "character" by that age in grade 10!
