QUOTE (fatb0t @ Jul 11 2008, 03:13 PM)  Scandinavian countries are beyond ahead of the curve as far as EVERYTHING is concerned. If it was warmer and waves up there I'd live there in a second =) America seems to be regressing... It's not that bad now in the summertime... It's about 30 degrees celcius here now, that's about 86 fahrenheit  Cold winters though.. This post has been edited by Canis: Jul 11 2008, 03:42 PM -------------------- GMC is not just a website...

Are there any waves (for surfing) along the coast of Norway? I'd imagine it must be pretty serious....

Not that california type surfwaves.. Atleast not where I live
 But I'd imagine the waves must be hardcore, since they're coming from the northsea. -------------------- GMC is not just a website... It's a lifestyle!

QUOTE (Iron King @ Jul 12 2008, 06:36 AM) Last week I got a new job that made a measly $3 more an hour than my old one. I got my paycheck yesterday I noticed that I made about the same amount of money as before. That $3 increase pushed me up to the next tax bracket and my taxes doubled. **** you Quebec! I find it absurd that a 20 year old student who works a full time jobs gets 25% of their salary stolen from the government. To top that off, today I got a letter in the mail from the gov. saying they were RETROACTIVELY increasing the price of car registration fees. Basically I bought something and a year later they decide that they want more and I have to pay it or go to jail... geez I don't even think the mafia would do that. Oh, and wanna know the best part? They are charging taxes for the amount I have to pay them in retroactive taxes. Yes that's right, my taxes are being taxed. could be worse I guess, my dad gets 55% of his salary taken away that's just criminal in my books That's just insane... Thanks for telling me why I never should move to the states
