Define "civil service". I can say with certainty that you wouldn't want two years of military service from ME. I support and deeply respect the military but I don't have the skills to benefit anyone via military service, so I'd have to do civil service.

The us military has to do some really sh***y things nowadays including killing innocent people and using depleted uranium which cause birth defects to this day. For the sake of politicians. And they cant control what they are told to do so Idk if canadian is any different but I would rather stick to civil

The internet is international which includes international perspectives....except maybe in n korea and maybe china and saudi controls where u go so u cannot visit certain websites or forums where the government thinks its being criticized or which has porn... oh iran blocks many things too...

I could neither vote for, nor against you. Due to issues citizenship & geographical location.
But I like some of your policies, so would most likely think well of your election victory from afar.

Have you ever made tea in a pint mug?

Does that mean a big mug? Yes.

Do you like crepes more, waffles, or pancakes? Or none

I’ll go for pancakes.
Which I forgot this year come to think of it :roll:

When I hear waffles I think of grids of chip-type potato about 3” by 4” :lol:
(They’re nice too, but I think you meant the sweet ones)

Do you know the secret about dressing gowns?

Ohhhh

Actually my dads cousin, she told me that her clear memory of her brother is that she walked in and he was in this luxurious dressing gown with velvet slippers...

and something else. I forgot the rest of her anecdote.
Her brother doesn’t believe in charity, though.

He convinced my little sister, who is impressed easily, that charity makes no sense till you are rich and old then u can donate more...but I pulled her away from him because that made me angry even though I like him.

He attended both our weddings, mine and my sister’s, he had to fly to another country for Hers.

I had him on facebook until I saw that he was talking about his mom who was encouraging him to attend orgies and do drugs ....then I felt gross... orgies ok that’s your business...but how can you tell your own son to do drugs. I know his mom is really creepy so I believe it.

I still have him but I muted so his facebook posts dont show on my feed.

Ive hijacked this thread twice today now, by posting extensively yet forgetting to carry on the topic.

I hope your meeting went well. :heart:

There are several things I want, but the simplest and most immediate would be a good night's sleep. I didn't get to sleep last night (this morning) until about 7:30 AM. I can't remember ever having awakened feeling well-rested, I always want to go right back to sleep. It would be nice if I could get that good start to the day.

Same question.
