WOW it was cold last night, and today. You couldn't see across the Halifax harbour because of all of the sea smoke...
-20 now (-31 with the windchill)
I walked 20min or so in the wind outside, bundled up good but my face hurt from the cold. I was going to play ball hockey and I was late so...
I know you were discussing us military. I just thought I would throw my $.2 into the conversation. :confused:
In the Canadian military, you don't see 40 year olds joining a trade such as, infantry or anything. Clerk type trades seem popular.
I did basic May - July 2002. I had turned 17 in April. I was one of the youngest.
The oldest was 40-something.... but the average age was probably 25ish.
It's been warm in Halifax, Nova Scotia.. and Saint John, New Brunswick this winter. We only had one snow fall so far, and it was just a quick and dirty.. gone within a few days.
Damn, and I payed $500 for new winter tires this year. :(
yeah man, the semi-final game where USA played Canada was intense. It went to a shoot-out that lasted 7 rounds!
