I nearly ended up in Edmonton !
But being told there are only 2 days in the year you can comfrotably go outside ended those plans. Freezing in winter and mosquitoes in summer, only safe time outdoors was in between
Craziest mall on the planet tho' -- more submarines than the Canadian navy !!!!!
The West Edmonton Mall is formerly the world's largest and has like 3 submarines inside of it.
I suppose our navy has only 2 or so and they are old busted British non-nukes.
Pathetic.

Back on topic, sort of.
The url when you hit "New Posts" says:
"http://www.ultimatecarpage.com/forum/search.php?searchid=_______" and just now, that number at the end passed 2,000,000. I don't exactly know what that means, but it is a big number regardless.
NSX-R: Supposedly malls are dying because of the economic situation (I hate how everything today is explained by that). I saw some article that looked to be getting overly hysterical about the affect malls had on suburbia, and what would happen without them. Unfortunately, I got bored and all I had actually read was a brief history of the mall's genesis in the '50s. Long story short: You shall be weirded out no more! (maybe)
"Kimi, can you improve on your [race] finish?"
"No. My Finnish is fine; I am from Finland. Do you have any water?"
Yes, that's exactly where I'm going. It's a lot of earth and land for a place to shop- not to mention, a lot of malls don't even utilize the roof. Come on, stick a garden up there or something. A lot of places flood because all that rain water has to go somewhere. Urban planning- you do realize we are eventually going to run out of space, right?
It's a waste of room, to be honest.
Well, yeah. NJ in general somehow has a lot of malls- maybe the lower sales tax. Elizabeth and Linden are both very close to where I am, and they both have a crapload of malls.
And I love how far off topic we are now.
Thanks a lot, Matra!
It's colder here actually, I just compared average temps for Edmonton and QC, and I live through winter rather well. Just find something that you like to pass the time, I play ice hockey. I will try snowboard too in the near future. Handbrake shenanigans on snowy and/or icy parking lots do help too.
The only problem I've got with winter is that it is too long, at the end of February the lack of sunlight does hit my happiness a bit, but nothing a solar lamp can't cure. Otherwise I ain't too depressed.
I remember once I had to walk at -46C to school and back, that's about an 1 km walk, and the wind was so strong it made my eyes dry and cry, and my tears froze halfway on my cheeks. I hadn't listened to the radio that morning which issued warnings no to go outside and that all schools were closed.
Also, total snowfall in QC in 2008 was 558 cm, or 18 feet. A record high, no need to mention. Still very impressive. Phuck shoveling.

I always figured there's a lot more to do in the winters than in the summers, but I wear a T-shirt and shorts until it gets well below freezing. Plus I sunburn pretty easily so I like to be wrapped up if it's sunny. I think people here (seattle area) ran out of things to do during the snows this year; I went to the mall to see a movie today and literally half the women there were about 6 months pregnant.
One of the things I love about moscow is the number of people that put an ATV or snowmobile in the back of their trucks for traction on ice, then just take off on them to have fun whenever they feel like it. I was driving to school once doing about 60mph and got passed by a guy in the field next to the road on his snowmobile.

-46?!?!?!?!?!?! oh crap thats flippin cold!!! anything with tempratures with a minus is something i abhor. and the heck with shoveling!! i had to wait for the bus in frigid tempratures. ugh, i hated that. and i see no point in shoveling when there is a light to heavy snow fall as its just going to eventually pile up anyways. i find i can do more in warm weather, like bike riding or something.
