The Irish Rovers...

My uncle was Jimmy Ferguson of the Irish Rovers. I used to "roadie" for them when I was a teenager and they were in town.
 
I was dating a Quebecois because after the conversion rate she was 37 years old and weighed 110 pounds. This stuff can work to your advantage)

Doc, um, "Quebecois" is for dudes. "Quebecoise" is for dudettes. Is there something you're not telling us?

The rock and roll hall of fame is a joke. People in there who were not rock and roll. They should just rename it to the pop and bubble gum music hall of fame.

Joni Mitchell did not attend her award ceremony, wonder why?
Listened to "Love or Money" from "Miles of Aisles" couple of times yesterday. Love it.
 
My LDC matches online prices as long as there an actual registered dealer of that product, I've been very happy with the prices I've gotten compared to what i would pay online.
Plus I get to try it out in there in door pool - same with cars tho there cheaper in the USA why ? 350,000,000 people compared to 35,000,000 living in a larger country of course your going to pay more they have to send farther to a smaller market so there costs go up. sounds like Japan is getting screwed tho

Hey Joey, I've ordered from Scuba Toys many times in the distant past but unless things have changed, shipping was very high. Add on top the duty and brokerage fees we pay makes it economically unviable. But, in fairness and respect I will have another look.

Well, put $250 worth of items in my cart, no tanks/bcds, just smaller items......$84 for shipping. Plus 20% duty and $40 brokerage fees (added by customs).......I hate living in Canada....unless I'm hurt or thirsty for beer.

What carrier for shipping? UPS is three or four times as high as the post office. I sent two bpws, two complete reg sets, and some small accessories to British Columbia and postage was 135 dollars. UPS adds on their own brokerage and admin fees plus shipping.
 
No one has mentioned Rush? Or Anne Murray.... lol

I buy a lot of stuff mail order from a shop in St. Catharines. The prices for the most part are pretty good. A lot better than where I am.
