Giving You Another One Just Like the Other One

As you may or may not know or care I live in Canada and it's awesome, everything smells of pine trees, you can get any article of clothing in plaid flannel, you can use the term tuque and people know exactly what you mean (which is a whole lot easier than referring to your new knit winter hat) and we've got socialised health care.
.
Personally I love it, but I know there are many people out there, both outside the country and in it, who don't know how it works or how it would work for them and maybe this will clear things up for you.
.
Regular readers will have figured out that I have some issues with soap-dodgers and half baked schemes, and man do I ever love to hear things like the Prius is more environmentally damaging than a BMW M3. Take that you smug bastards . . . and yeah don't worry I really know what the message of the clip was, just like I *really* know what the message of driving a Prius is.
.
Now some science I can stand behind 100% - making dinosaurs from chickens. Nothing can possibly go wrong there can it? And think of the omelets you could make from those eggs and imagine a McNugget from Ronnie that could feed four? Now that's progress you can sink your teeth into.
.
Oh and a bit of a favour and public service announcement, please stop emailing me to inform me that baby carrots are causing cancer from their chlorine marination it's not true . . . that is of course if you believe Snopes and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (see section 4.4 Antimicrobial Treatment of the linked document) over some email that's been forwarded 100 different times from your aunt's neighbour's nephew who is thinking about switching his major from bong hits to pre-med even though he's at the local Community College.
.
Thanks.
.
Oh, and it looks like someone beat me to it . . . Batman son of Superman, how much more awesome can you get?
.
And with that I will say Good Bye.
