Sorry--the above post was mine--but I needed spell check and didn't have it. My bad. Anyways...
Not a comment about the couch (although I miss it) or even the Couch blog (envious of the Blogger support!!!), but I was just down in Port Credit, and wanted to tell you. It is much nicer than I remember it, as most things are in the GTA. I was a mere teen whenI lived here, and hated everything and almost everyone. I think that you'll like it a bunch. It is one part of Mississauga that has eluded the suburban touch.
Hey, thanks for this Andy! You coulda left the typos in. :-)
We also really like Port Credit, for just that reason. The funny thing is, we stumbled on it by accident on our first trip up to Toronto, and got the (incorrect) impression that all the suburbs were cute little towns like that. After looking around more, and seeing how unique Port Credit is, we really wanted to live there.
Plus it's so close to downtown, and has decent public transit to Toronto, compared to most places in Mississauga.
We can't believe how lucky we were to find this house so easily.

You will appreciate that when I was growing up in the NYC suburbs, my theme song was "...it's a town for losers, I'm pulling outta here to win..."
You saw a great show, eh? Bruce never disappoints.
Thanks to ALPF, I have learned that another American war resister is seeking asylum in Canada. I am so out of the loop, lost as I am in the ancient world . Good thing you guys keep me informed. US Army Pvt. Brandon Hughey, 20, told the [Canadian] Immigration and Refugee Board that he refused "to kill people or lose my life under false pretenses." Hughey said he believed the war in Iraq was illegal and his conscience obliged him to desert his Ft. Hood, Texas army base last year. He said when he joined the military at 17 he was looking for a way to put himself through college and respected the military. "I believe some things are worth fighting for, like defending my home and my family," Hughey told the board. "I had no moral objection to fighting back then. In some circumstances, war can be justified." He believed US President George W. Bush had proof that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, so he initially supported the war. But he later deter...
This spelling thing everyone keeps warning me about is more complicated than I thought! This page runs through the terms of the debate. Check it out - it's informative and amusing. Thanks to ALPF, of course.
Someone just emailed this to me. +++++++ George: (While preparing bicarb) She invites me up at twelve o clock at night, for coffee. And I don't go up. "No thank you, I don't want coffee, it keeps me up. Too late for me to drink coffee." I said this to her. People this stupid shouldn't be allowed to live. I can't imagine what she must think of me. Jerry: She thinks you're a guy that doesn't like coffee. George: She invited me up. Coffee's not coffee, coffee is sex. Elaine: Maybe coffee was coffee. George: Coffee's coffee in the morning, it's not coffee at twelve o clock at night. Elaine: Well some people drink coffee that late. George: Yeah, people who work at NORAD, who're on twenty-four hour missile watch. Everything was going along so great: she was laughing, I was funny. I kept saying to myself "Keep it up, don't blow it, you're doing great." Elaine: It's all in your head. All she knows is she had a good time. ...
