If you were a credit card company would *you* give them with a card? -.- -
Very informative. Their coat of arms made me giggle. It's being humped by a caribou and a swordfish, and I'll be damned if that's not an igloo on top of it. Their flag looks like it was drawn by a three-year-old.Quoth Gravekeeper View Post"You are loved" - Plaidman.Comment

And just what is the flag meant to be? A pile of rocks?3 Basic rules for ordering food.

The simple answer is yes! Their flag is a pile of rocks
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_NunavutThe Flag of Nunavut was proclaimed on 1 April 1999, along with the territory of Nunavut in Canada.
It features a red inukshuk -- an Inuit land marker -- and a blue star, which represents both the Niqirtsuituq, the North Star, and the leadership of elders in the community. The colours represent the riches of the land, sea and sky.

Yep. They're using that as the logo for 2010 Olympics here in Vancouver too much to the horror of everyone. The symbolism behind it is nice, but its still a pile of crudely shaped rocks. So they took a lot of flak for selecting it as a logo and I've yet to talk to anyone that actually likes the "logo".Quoth Banrion View PostComment

Ok, maybe I missed something, but since when is Vancouver in Nunavut, and why the use the rocks?!?! There are so many other beautiful Canadian images that could be used as an Olympic logo other than a bunch of poorly drawn boxes.Quoth Gravekeeper View Post
ETA: I figured it out. For the next 3 years, there will be no learning in schools in Nunavut, they are putting ALL school aged children to work creating souveniers for the Olympics. And simultaneously creating another generation of 867 residents to call you for 4x pink camo.The only words you said that I understood were "His", "Phone" and "Ya'll".

I'll get my dead guys to start building a ring. Circular right? Thank Cthulhu I've got alot of cheeseburgers for these freaks. Who's reffing? GK himself?Quoth Broomjockey View PostNope. And grand prize is the winner gets to keep GK. First runner up gets 1/2 hr. alone with GK in a locked roomIt is inaccurate to say that I hate everything. I am strongly in favor of common sense, common honesty, and common decency. This makes me forever ineligible for public office.

BTW, the fireworks GK keeps talking about are an international competition. This past Saturday (8/4) was the finale. The weather was perfect, and this year's show was unbelievable. Canada, Spain and China were the finalists, Canada won, but not by much. The synchronized music is totally lame but the firework show is nothing short of stupendous. Worth a trip to YVR on the first Saturday of August. First Sunday is Gay Pride, one of the biggest Pride parades in North America, really a hoot to watch. Lots of witty stuff. We skipped the parade this year in favor of getting out of the crowds and exploring neighborhoods we haven't seen before. Besides the train home to Seattle is sort of a rolling gay pride event anyway. It actually feels a little weird to be straight on the train. The bartenders love it, huge business until they close the bar in EverettSome days, it's just not worth chewing through the restraints...

As usual GK, you made me spit out my lunch because I was laughing so hard
Total surrender
Your touch is so tender
Your skin is like water on a burning beach
And it brings me relief
