| The best part of this story has to be the cops description of the suspect: 'nattily dressed in a Burberry shirt...', are the TO police hiring fashion experts now? '... and just LOOK at those dahling shoes!' |

| I had a 98% final mark in grade 13 English in an Ontario High School - when I wrote this exam after acceptance into Waterloo, I ended up with a 60% mark - just enough to be called 'proficient' in English.

| Not too surprised - Flames had to make a change and Phaneuf was over-rated at best - a hype player who had his day in Calgary. He may do better with a change in scenery. The Flames were smart to trade him while he still had some cache. |
