Moving to Canada?

[NAD]

NixodemiC, how cold does it get where you are? Just in case.

EDIT: 206 to 207, overnight bag packed complete with blade, but airlines/map/AAA not yet consulted.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

night now its 3 degrees celcius outside, but in January it got to 40 below celcius for a few days. That's about as extreme as it gets.

 

[Captain Beard]

I wish, but I have no job skills they'd like. YET. Matt, your sister want a husband? I'm available.

 

[NAD]

*consults C to F conversion chart*

haha, -40 C = -40 F. That's fucking cold. Coldest I've been in is just below 0 C. My desertratass could handle it, but it was damn cold.

I've got my f'ing greencard interview on November 18th. After all the headache, with all the admin, photocopying, form filling, visa clearing, etc etc, I might as well just give it to an Iraqi and head back to kick Tony Blair's ass.

The kids can get British citizenship, but the wife is still a yank. Oh well, nobody's perfect.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

Let me know if you're going to become refugees. I'll see if there's something I can do to help out.

I wish, but I have no job skills they'd like. YET. Matt, your sister want a husband? I'm available.

no NL, she's not. Unless you can assassinate this guy:

 

[Black Winter Day]

Fuck this.

 

[NAD]

I don't think people realize how awful this will be if W. wins, which is looking pretty likely right now. Something bad is going to happen. Something really fucking bad. Either Bush is going to invade some random country that SURPRISE! has the ability to strike back on US soil, or a lackluster economy that continues into the shitter, or the collective Middle-east will take over Saudi Arabia and hunt us next. Jesus fucking piss cunting fart. This is going to suck real bad.

Fuck you Karl Rove. Fuck you Dick Cheney. Fuck you Donald Rumsfeld. Fuck you John Ashcroft you big fucking pussy. Fuck you George Bush.

 

[Black Winter Day]

Fuck this shit.

 

[Black Winter Day]

Fuck this shit, I'm leavin'.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

I'm appalled to what it has come to, but I've learned to never trust other people to exhibit common sense.

 

[NAD]

Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

Yeah, I was hoping to get away from SoCal early next year, might just make it the whole US instead. I have a buddy checking out New Zealand and it looks pretty promising, might shove off with him. For at least 4 or 5 years anyhow, not sure I could become a full on expatriate.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

New Zealand supposedly isn't such a bad place. It's warm there, so I'm sure your desert-accustomed self won't find it such a terrible climate change. Plus its an english speaking country. Downside: no concerts, but hey, after awhile you don't even really miss them.

 

[NAD]

Bootlegs, rugby, and Lord of the Fucking Rings.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

Not too bad.

 

[NAD]

Eh, we'll see what happens. If I really do flee Canada is my first choice, I've never been but it seems like a very nice place in most (if not all) ways. Also it borders the US so visiting home shouldn't prove too much of a challenge. Actually I think I'm going to toss on The Score right now, that movie made me want to become a Canadian criminal, or at least a nightclub owner.

Either way I was planning on a long distance vacation early next year, probably scope out The Neighbor to the North on my way through Big Sur.

 

[Nico]

New Zealand aint a bad place if you can get over the sheepshagging. Their prime minister is a woman, so you can assume the laws and policies are a little more thought out. *shrugs*

Gets fucking cold there in winter. Well, compared with most of Australia.

My Prof has already set me up for an international development consulting job in Indonesia with USAID, 13,000 American a month. Im lucky, as apprently you have to know someone, or come out from Harvard or YAle to get in. Now I just have to dodge muslim extremists for a few years. I've been studying for the foreign service exam in Apr, but I dont know if this route is a good one, now that Bush has been re-elected, so Indonesia here I come.

if I lose my job to a sand my pals, then Canada could seriously be an option
