Yeah, I want to do a kitchen reno on the cheap, and a local IKEA would help my cause substantially.

Those $1 breakfasts, however, are really not all their cracked up to be...

Was that an egg joke?

My girls like them ... and getting them to eat anything is a good thing. I like good food, and have to admit that they try hard to make it well on most occasions and fun. I have noticed a big difference b/w stores though ... so I guess this one goes to the unions. TO has $1 Cappuccino ... most others don't offer this.

I can't tell with my software who might own that hypothetical piece of property. Shindico? Hopewell? I'd love to build a megachurch there if Ikea doesn't happen.

^ Touching your nose is a non-verbal way of agreeing with someone. It's rumoured that Fairweather has been involved with that property.

Fairweather! No wonder it hasn't happened yet. Just ask Sportsman Marine on Madison.

Hey TV the big blue box would look nice against his yellow box across the street!

Are you guys sure your not secretly freemasons?

With your system of nose touching and blinks i'm getting my hopes raised that SSP is a front for the illuminati.

Perhaps you guys could weigh in on this scenario.

Hypothetically speaking of course..

We have many reports of the Bigfoot (Sasquatch) here in Manitoba. And the one consistent aspect is the incredible size of the Bigfoots reported here. Some reports have the creatures 12 feet tall. Another aspect of Manitoba is we have many Polar Bears in the far north of the province. I always wondered what would happen if a Bigfoot and Polar Bear crossed paths. It would be a battle Don King would be proud of. A friend of mine made this illustration of such a battle.
