Hey look! It’s a Saline Formula Fjord?

Hmmm... 2005. Didn’t know that until now. Still, it’s interesting how scientists like water enough to use another of its properties as a base, and even then, the scale still matches melting and boiling to less than 1/10th of a point. IOW, you could still say that water melts at 0.0C and boils at 100.0C

What Earth do you live on? Icebergs and hot springs are literally freezing and boiling water. If aliens came here and were showed a thermometer with Celsius, I think they would appreciate a scale based on the material that covers most of the planet surface and makes up our own bodies. Ours might be primitive compared…

It’s the difference between idealists and pragmatism. At the time, Reform Alliance and Progressive Conservative parties were willing to cooperate in order to form government and work on their differences internally. It put Harper into Sussex and McKay got to keep his laissez faire social policy. As it stands, the NDP,…

I tend to agree with you. Here in Canada, the centre has won the most elections over my lifetime with left and right taking just under their share of the relative vote. (Note that there’s a bit of a debate here for how system skews the math.) Then, about a decade ago, right of centre united with far right. The centre,…

Does this mean Pence can claim having donated these amounts on his tax return? IOW, is being the victim of irony profitable?

That would require some really bug balls...

And I thought all the good ones were taken...

No need to imagine. It’s known as “Mutually Assured Destruction”and it’s been a cornerstone of US foreign policy for decades. It was applied perfectly by the Black Panthers back in the day. The problem with detente is that it’s less stable when one party is desperate, such as during the fall of the Soviets. This is…

I prefer not to be taken for a ride.

Any interior pocket doesn’t require a chemical hand warmer. Pants pockets also work but less so since there is no insulation from the outside surface.

OMG, that’s fun.

I call fake. A driver’s clock should have its hands permanently set to 10 and 2.

Exactly how is this European flavour or racism different than making Murica great only for Muricans?

Hoth, as in rebel sanctuary?

Leaving the wings on at first is a great tip. I’ll put it to good use on my next turn at the bird. I’ll add that it’s even easier to let someone else do it.

Don’t sweat it. Pichou is still in the snotty kid brother stage of the national identity program. It’s a thing here. For many years, our only self-identity at home and around the world was being “not American.” Recent proof that our home-grown institutions can be strong and successful have given Canadians a new pride…
