Nick's is good. Not the best I've had but the best there.

Lam's is good too. I go for the places with character

'We have enough youth, where's the fountain of smart.'

I have favourite places to eat, but I'm lousy with names. I'll second the Sea King, Shark Fin Restaurant on Merivale, and Gerbo's in Smiths Falls ( I grew up around there). A hidden gem is SF is the Lotus House. Great Cantonese takeout. Someone mentioned chip wagons. I don't remember the name of it, but theres a great chip wagon on Carling, right in front of the Produce Depot and a Beer Store. Best fries around. J.T.'s Fries I think. I believe it's west of Woodroffe. And buffet yangming on Merivale (Emerald Plaza). Good, cheap easy chinese buffet.

I've received that email before in reference to a site used for downloading music, movies and games. It's not a new thought, and in that case, it was a disgruntled ex-member who was thrown out for racial hate on their chat boards. For the record, CSIS works externally. Unless it's a matter of national security they don't have jurisdiction. So terrorist pussy would be a CSIS matter. Talk about an interesting interrogation...

A semi-inspirational quote for those of us (including me) who keep finding ourselves in the same situations over and over again ' The first time it happens, you're a victim. After that, you're a volunteer.'

My pet peeves... The person on public transit who talks LIKE THIS when they are on the phone. People who find it necessary to remind me that smoking is bad for my health. I saw the filmstrips. I got the message. People who knock on my door at 8 am on a Sunday to tell me about Jesus. I saw the movie. I read the book. Thanks anyway. Rainy day drivers who think theres a law requiring them to drive through every deep puddle that might possibly reach the sidewalk.

I have a few quotes I use often. Unfortunately I've either heard them or seen them online and can't give credit where it's due. 'I take a dog's philosophy on life. If you can't eat it or fuck it, piss on it.' 'Dilligaf - stands for Do I Look Like I Give A Fuck' - Kevin 'Bloody' Wilson, Aussie Comic/Musician 'If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving is not for you.' I've seen enough youth, now where's the fountain of smart?'

Hey, newbie sticking my nose in.... 1. Madonna (I'm a child of the eighties, what can I say) 2. Demi Moore (see above) 3. Halle Berry 4. Andie McDowell (wow, step up to this decade) 5. Jenna Jameson (perennial list girl it seems)

I'll second that thought on Amina. Gorgeous, funny, and very down to earth.
