| Gotta say Dr. C, I keep coming to this thread to see what the latest is in the worlds beyond. I am a science geek, and do try to follow this stuff, but most of it is way past my brain. Telling me about pulsating quasars and dark matter, and dark energy, it all sounds like magic to me now, and I don'... |

| Just call it like it is rather than using mild terms. He's a dangerous, lying sack of shit, and those who support him are complicit idiots. Trump and Co. are the biggest threat to freedom, liberty and democracy that the US has ever faced. Far worse than National Socialism or Communism ever were. A ... |

| I only have a passing interest in Alberta provincial politics. There are only two questions that have given me pause for thought. The first is why Alberta evolved into such a right-of-center place while next-door Saskatchewan became the first to elect a socialist government in North America. The sec... |

Speaking of which, if you want to read about a really spooky incident, check out the Dyatlove Pass Incident. What were they afraid of? |

| Multiple sources are saying that a senior living on $26K per year will be expected to eventually pay $15K PER YEAR for their own insurance. Yes, but they now have the freedom not to buy it! If you know the story about socialized medicine in Canada, you know it started here in Saskatchewan under Tom... |

| Back in August of '93 I was having a beer with friends in the Little B in the north end of Regina. It was Saturday afternoon, I remember these details because I was moving to New Brunswick in a couple of weeks, and two women with Atlantic accents started bumming smokes off me. I started chatting wit... |

| Howdy howdy, I'm a prairiechickin from Saskatchewan. I've been lurking here for a couple of years and have been banned from all my regular sites, so I thought I'd come and bug you guys. I love Canadian history, outdoorsy stuff, making moonshine, et les femmes d'Acadie. I will try to add the western... |
