Default 2006 Projects? and federally mandated breaks

That's the ticket - keep them in line!

We don't have steward room service for officers anymore in Australia,
although two stars and above still have a personal steward.

BTW - I once ran into my section on a day off wearing jeans and a tee, and
with my hair dowm (very long at the time). My Corporal stopped dead in his
tracks and just gasped "Gee Ma'am - I didn't know you had hair!"

Ex WRAF and now working as a 'Batwoman' (housekeeper) in an Officer's
mess - most of my officer's treat me as 'mum' even the one's older or the
same age as me when I'm in my 'company uniform' but when I'm out on the
'Raz' with DH they're quite shocked to see me 'dressed up' . I worked on
the Summer ball and slapped a few knuckles with my serving spoon which
shocked them !!!

Miss Emilie is an immensely fat cat. Does that make her a corporate fat
cat who would presumably vote Re-purr-blican?

You would have to be Liberal here Gillian, I don't believe - as a
woman - you could vote for Stephen Harper the Conservative. I have
sometimes voted Conservative, but NEVER while that man is head of the
party. Ick, ack, spit !


There is no conservative party, only the old alliance with a new name.
It may have changed its name to conservative but the old alliance
platform is its backbone. I fear many will forget that and vote for
it just to get rid of the liberals. Mulroney killed it, conservative
party, and Charest buried when in the processes of its rebuilding he
left for the provincial liberals. McKay signed the death certificate.

Unfortunately though, they are the conservatives of the bunch, just
too conservative and powered by the born agains who take this super
moral view on everything, especially where it concerns other people of
course! Most of all, I would not vote for them because they would
take away our health system as they are hand in glove with the US
medical insurance companies - that would be a really backward move for
Canada!

a forum for Pagan fiber artists: The Church of Satin.

A true denim skirt or jumper is never crisp. It doesn't press well, the
edges curl up after washing. Furthermore, the dye fades considerably,
which doesn't look very nice. If I want blue, I want blue, not faded blue.

I've worked in a commercial laundry, and so can speak to the nonsense
of Dianne's statements here. Many men asked to have their jeans double
and even triple starched. Even Levi's pressed very nicely on the steam
heads. The fade can be controlled by water temperature in the wash.
And the hem curl can be controlled by washing the garment inside out.
Now please explain the difference between "faded" blue and "light"
blue.

Hmmm. I'm not sure I see that so much as "Carnival" as I do autumn-y.
Or is it more vivid than my computer screen is showing?

I received my card from Elections Canada this a.m. plus one other.
When they called to enumerate, with a straight face I said the other
person who lived here was Bucket Mackenzie. So he received his card
too. I think I might frame his.


I think you should take Bucket to the poll, along with his card and his
rabies certificate as ID, and demand he be allowed to vote. (He's not a
Conservative, is he????)
Dawne


I don't think so, he's a red cat. Better not take him to vote, he
probably votes Liebral and we don't want them back in with a majority
lol


If he's red, I doubt he votes Liberal.

I'm already barefoot and you're beyond getting pregnant.......



True but I did see a bright star in the east recently lol


I always thought that was for the virgins rather than the crones.
