To hell with the robins/groundhogs, the coloured Tim Horton's mugs are the sure sign that Spring is arriving here. I was driving back to the office and there was a guy walking along the road, coffee in hand, as I passed him I noticed that the cup was red....WOOHOO!!! It's spring!
I had officially won my first "Please Play Again" 20 minutes later! YAY! I used to cut the rims off all the cups and pin on the cubicle wall....my 2004 total was 63 Play agains and 13 wins (yes, I'm in construction...I drink alot of coffee).
I've never had a Dunkin coffee...but hate the burned taste of Staryucks.
Cheers!<ul><li><a href="http://www.rolluptherimtowin.com">RUTRTW!</a></li></ul>

Roll
Up
The
Rim
To
Win?
Me, I though the biggest prize shouldn't br 'please play again' but should say 'Why Bother?'
I *never* win a prize. Statistically speaking, some of your prizes must belong to ME!!!<ul><li><a href="http://www.rimroller.com/">To help Steve out with his 'winning cups'</a></li></ul>

Of course, the donut is going to cost me around $16.00....but I'll enjoy the coffee.
Yeah, Lee Valley Tools sell that Rim Roller - I've never had a problem with rolling up the rim to find out I lost - I can do it fast enough, thanks. It would be nice if they put a bit of wax on the rim area, though....so that you wouldn't be drinking out of a employee-partially unrolled cup (BTDT....ewwwww...)
Cheers!

Since mine was originally a US car, I didn't need a Letter of Conformity (saying it meets US regulations), it already had one as a sticker on the B-Pillar.
The first hour was taken up with paperwork, inspecting the car for fruit (although they did find cocaine in the door cards :-), and other crap. Then the supervisor said I didn't have a letter of conformity saying it meets US safety and emissions standards. I told them it was originally a US car, and that the sticker counted. He said it didn't because it said "Federal" not, "USA".
Federal = US
Ministry of Transport = Canada
We argued, and after I furnished a Colorado State Inspection report from 2001, he decided to call down to the Buffalo station to confer. They said-
"Yeah, that sticker IS the letter of conformity... and he furnished a CO Inspection certificate? Let him through now!"
$95.00 in importation fees later, I was zooming down I-95.... with Cruise Assist.
