I resemble this remark…

Broadband users are impatient – Apparently people who have Broadband expect the same speed of service in real life. I can definately vouch for that. I’ve personally had broadband in some form since 1998 and even before then had broadband in high school. I’m also highly impatient in line at stores.

CBC Toronto – Man shot dead in downtown stand-off – This was going on as I got off the GO Train in Union station this morning. The station was evacuated, Front St was closed from Yonge to University (a very busy street during the morning rush), no one was being let into the underground PATH […]
