Sorry Bb, no offence meant, but I won't touch that line with a ten foot Hungarian.

Spaw, not a bad idea actually. Toronto and New York have a fair amount in common. Other than gang wars and funny accents both cities have a lotta people, a lotta restaurants and museums, a lotta pro sports teams, and enough music stores and libraries to keep me happy. I've lived in both, but I'm much less afraid of 12 year old kids here. Since the U.S. has been trying to take us over for 250 years (all they've managed so far is natural resources and Marshall McLuhan....we didn't want Shatner back!) I'm all for capitulating and making the whole continent one big damned mess. 'Course it means that on Saturday morning I'll be going to 46th street rather than the Twelfth Fret. Since I won't be back til Sunday evening, Heather will have to do ALL the chores!

By the way, re the NY election: Hilary may well be smart slick and slippery, but I doubt she's any less ethical than her opponent Lazio. He was a Gingrich buddy from the get-go, and that's a little too holier-than-thou for my tastes.
