Sooo... is it true that Canada has underground cities so you don't even have to go outside at winter?

Ladydarke and I tried to get into the Montreal underground, but never made it. We DID take the subway, though. It's just that everything eventually lead above ground again.

I really hope that's true... But people are just so lazy and ignorant these days.

Coober Pedy in South Australia has underground houses. They were pretty cool.*

Legend says that there are secret underground hallways dating from medieval times, connecting all major European cities.
Would be nice. I wouldn't need visa.

Uh, oh... I feel a rant coming on...


This appears to be another COMPLETELY ACCIDENTAL attempt to marginalize and silence those who don't have the money to buy free speech. It's amazing to me how these parasites constantly find ways to loophole the bill of rights into irrelavence, and then they appear on TV ( buying airtime is EXPENSIVE! ) belaboring their devotion to the constitution, and how we shouldn't "punish" those helpless megacorporations.
It's not a conspiracy, it's just an amazing COINCIDENCE that every law they've passed in the last 8 years favors the wealthy over the mean ol' poor, and it's just an ACCIDENT that the middle class is slowly vanishing as a result. It'll be COMPLETELY UNINTENTIONAL when America becomes a caste system, and it'll also be MY OWN DAMN FAULT for not being rich enough to afford to promote anything I make, thus preventing me from making the money necissary to promote the stuff, etc. because as we all know, "It Takes Money to Make Money," A motto that they will stop at nothing to ensure remains true. In the interest of "free" trade, of course.

Besides, unregulated speech makes for people saying things you don't want others to hear. It also allows those who don't work under the oversight of big corporate interests to provide alternatives to the mindless ad-copy of modern media, which they simply cannot allow.
And, most importantly, the carriers (like every company) always has to make as much money as possible in every given instance, without exception.

To really drive the metaphor into the ground, They paved the road, sold you the car, sell you the gas, sold ad space on the side of it, and charge you seperately to use various dashboard instruments, but because this isn't enough, they now must put toll booths on every road, spaced a mile apart each.

Does this sound like the act of a "stable" industry?

Yay! The economy is collapsing!

Of course, it could be because of the usual corporate greed...

Well, in all honesty, corporate greed does lead to the domino effect with can lead to economy collapsing.
