Everywhere gas prices are going up. Makes ya want to move to Canada and change your name Polaski, live in a hut in the wilderness of toronto, and eat bear meat for the rest of your life.

They seem to eat mostly bacon, not bear:  http://youtu.be/_NMyAbFmsb4

Unless that was bear bacon?

There's bears in canada... I might as well eat em.

Ah the famous wilderness of Toronto, You are talking about the Don Valley Parkway's gully aren't you? Maybe up around Temagami

I suppose you might be talking about Queen street but that is a whole different kettling of fish!

My dad went to Canada to hunt. It's a good vacation place.

As I am in my 4th country in two years I say as long as I have my research funding things can fall apart around me and I shall still be content  .

@Tesh : You should really escape that dirty south nonsense and move up North or better yet to the EU,  haha. Cheers.

To the first... I would have been happy too, but they yanked my funding down here, and won't give it back! The turds. 

To the second... I'm coming! Save me a cookie.

... Funny how I live in Toronto, just drove down the Don Valley Parkway today, camped in Temagami a couple years ago, and hate Queen's street mostly because... Well let's not get into that. Anyways, I find my true home in Casa Loma.

The southern part of the U.S. is a pretty good place. Just avoid the trailer parks.

I think we should just take something from good old Belgium. They had some of the most productive times when they had no national government.

Had? Last time I checked we still didn't have a government over here:p And honestly, a big part of me stopped caring a while ago too, only annoying thing is that we have to go vote every year for no reason at all. Since nothing ever seems to change.

Myeah Belgium is annoying... Life isn't bad here though, it just rolls on, but I'm out of here as soon as I'm able to:p

p.s.  Parallo, Ireland is not at all boring, I still am in awe of the country that gave us James Joyce, many things must simmer underneath the gorgeous cold countryside....

I'm the only person I know that has read more than the Dubliners. Romantic Ireland's dead and gone, It's with O'Leary in the grave.

Seriously, there are no more Shaws, Wildes, na nGopaleens, Kavanaghs, Yeats'. Well, we have Heaney but he is senile.  Everyone seems to think we're this island full of little scholars when we are still just an island full of west British peasants.

What about Bono and The Edge? Van the Man?

[bilbous]

well who knows what Yeats would have produced had he had to sing for his supper.
Anyway I was only slightly serious about U2. Van Morrison does have more literary pretensions.

I have to say though that comparing the best of somebodies work with the worst of someone else's is not really fair. Also my comparing
musicians with poets wasn't really on the nose either as they are quite different
