It's possible the 14.99 sticker was put on in error, and then just covered up, no?

I really do hate Futureshop. I am very distraught over it. I wish I had checked in the store.
Well, if you ever need help firebombing their stores let me know. I'm not as fond of them as you are.

IIRC Sportschek got caught and fined for doing that.

It's possible, but that means they made the same mistake twice, because it happened with two of the sets I bought today.

Good to know I've got back up. I appreciate it.

Take the DVD's back with your sales slip and ask for your money back.

I refuse to shop that place.

Yeah, its always fun to look back at trades like Val Bure for Jonas Hoglund (at that time, Hoglund came off a strong rookie season with Iginla)... Roman Turek for Tkaczuk, Varlamov and (1st?)... Wregget...

Random thought for today: damn my roommate looked hot today (yes, a girl)

Has anyone seen the movie "One Week". I was just reading some reviews, I hadn't heard about it before. Seems like it might be a good choice.

I've seen the ad for it a ton of times for some reason. It looks better then the usual Canadian movies, probably because it has an actual well known Hollywood actor starring in it. That being said, the reviews for it are pretty average.

It might be nice to watch to see Canadian scenery, assuming they skip Saskatchewan.

^LOL....poor Saskatchewan. I've lived in all four provinces between Alberta and Ontario and SASK is the only one I have no intention of ever returning to.

I heard the movie isn't very good and the scenery is nothing to write home about (something about too many statues?)

I've got nothing against the province except for the geography. Driving across it is SO boring.

If they took away the Manitoba and Alberta welcome signs I guarantee you that you couldn't tell Sask from either of them until you got to Calgary or Ontario.

It is flat but I hate to tell you so is everything in between the Rockies and Ontario (and even a lot of that is flat they just have more trees).

Oh and I so tried the 60 posts per page thing. Yeah so annoying. Way too much scrolling.

Manitoba, yes, but you'd know the second you hit Alberta by the fact the road just got a hell of a lot better.

And there's no longer any wheat on the side of the road.

You have obviously driven across on the Trans Canada...that drive is very boring...Calgary to Saskatoon isn't all that exciting, but it's a bit better...Winnipeg to Edmonton through Saskatoon isn't too bad of a drive, as the route is pretty much on the edge of the prairie and in the beginning of parkland.

LOTR would have been a hell of a lot better without Frodo and Samwise.
