  1. Showing my age, for me it was Red Dwarf and Yes Minister/Yes Prime Minister! Fawlty Towers always seemed to be too slapstick for my liking... The Office (the British version) is great in its own way, though it has always made totally ill at ease, which is, well, what it aimed to accomplish. Does everyone know the close connection between Gervais and Ontario?
  2. Bridgette will post her schedule in her 'about me tab'; she is both day time and evenings, about twice a week... http://cerb.ca/vbulletin/member.php?u=44586 and she is gorgeous!
  3. Well, a girl deserves some nice eye candy for her birthday. What about Michael Phelps?
  4. A CR reco from you is like the famous Slurp seal of approval for an Asian provider! It is worth gold!
  5. there is an Apple store in Rideau Centre, so yes downtown Ottawa folks are lucky...
  6. Hello Alexandra-Sky, have you used a guide such as this one from CNET to narrow down what specs would meet your needs? Power and speed may not be important if no heavy computations are required, graphic cards can be basic if no video-editing is required. Here's another guide from PCmag for laptops and then for netbooks. Me, were I ever to go back to school (which I can't imagine, been there, done that during many-many years, lol), I would be netbook all the way! Now, let us hope it does not become a PC versus Mac discussion :-)
  7. Cerb all the way. I haven't got a FB account, which carries a rather bad reputation, privacy-wise. I will consider google+, when the lesser ones are allowed in, since there is more control on who sees what. Twitter? My life is hardly interesting enough for a blow-by-blow account, everyone would get bored fast! Cerb: there are many amusing posts, some great general topic threads, and the ladies for sure who are making it rather interesting, so I'll tend to visit more than once per day...
  8. And you may want to try Brasserie T! near Place des Arts... http://www.brasserie-t.com/index-en.php
  9. Well, very sorry to hear about this guy misbehaving like this, and I must say your replies were just right, and quick witted. Being quick witted is a great quality to have... Playing devil's advocate, it may just be the case that he really rapidly felt like a dork, and that the heat of the moment explains his first comment, and alcohol the latter ones... Still, it does not excuse his messing with your evening of fun with a friend. Enjoy life, go and dance with your friends, and don't worry too much about dorks. Life is too short for that. Best, toine
  10. Well, looks yummy. Did not know about pintxo and now I want some of that next time I'm in town...
  11. Still an atheist, too, but quite an accomplishement nevertheless. Hail to WiT!
  12. Well, don't be so nervous, just read all that has been written here, pick a person whose personality and way to go seem right, and take the plunge! Have fun! toine
  13. Interesting evening. They are skillful enough to get through a week's paycheck of all but the wall street's golden boys, and then again they might just manage that as well! As for 'outside the club activities', chances are it is not real. The latest thread, one of many, on this topic, is to be found here: http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=54639 Take care, FB... toine
  14. Question-answer: what is the perfect example of 'it stinks in more way than one?' Question: Who was an aviation pionneer, a representative of the Queen in Nova Scotia and has his own Wikipedia entry? Question: What is a classic line from the famous TV series Star Treck? Answer: still water

    3 word story game

  16. what is a great gift to yoga lover and men alike? Who starred in the first issue of Playboy magazine? Marylin Monroe! Brain cramp! sorry Daniel and everyone else. Now, an answer: Farenheit 451!
  17. What happens when you reach middle-age? Little boy
  18. What is the meaning of life? Leaster B. Pearson
  19. What is trailing behind a good 'droid'? Ottawa on July First!
  20. Wasn't there also a club on Victoria in the basement on Portage Phase I which was known for a while as Phase V?
  21. I like Isabella Gia's creativity in launching new threads, entertaining and full of challenges ! talking about challenges...
