I've always maintained that the microwave oven is one of the greatest inventions ever - second only to duct tape. :)

Now, they'd have something, if they could invent a microwave that doesn't make the food taste like it was duct taped. ;)

Here's some more off topic prattle. :) When microwave ovens first came onto the market, I was working for Wards and I sold them. There actually were some people who thought they were a hoax and that our demonstrations were "rigged". In fact, I had one couple that swore we were "doing black magic" and that we "would be punished for doing Satan's work"! :eek:

They sold pretty well, though.

That may be the funniest thing I have heard all day. That would have took a lot of explaining to "prove" there was no "magic."

My microwave oven stopped working recently. Do you know where I can get the black magic refilled?

I am a Habs fan. It's better than following the Toronto Maple Laughs.

However, I will acknowledge that when the Leafs do win the Cup next, it will be the biggest party that North America has ever seen. I can guarantee that.

Party time.

Arrests, looting, and cars on fire last night. What if the Habs had lost? http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/tr...smiley-026.gif

I saw a more in depth account of the events not even an hour ago on CBC Newsworld. I'm rather ashamed, actually. Canadians are much more mature than all that looting, etc. Of the 16 people arrested, the oldest was 24, so it does seem that it was a case of immature young men thinking that it was something to win the first series in 7 games.

I hope that they jail the most severe offenders, even if only for a few days. It will show that the public can't react as they did, even in June! :eek:
