Can I file a complaint with you then over the gratuitous waste of our tax dollars on the stupid commercials, including the ones aired during the Super Bowl? I'd appreciate it if you bumped it up the chain.

Haha, I am not that far up in the chain.

A lot of people are making complaints about the commercials. In the long run, what they're trying to do is save tax payers' money by getting more people to mail their initial questionnaires in. Instead of having to send out the NRFU Enumerators to make house calls.

Concerning the 4A Regionals, I just found out there's going to be a few 3A Regional games to be played on Saturday at the same site.

Some of your information is way out of date LMAO.

Anywho with the extensive medical record I have, if my identity does get compromised, I'd know about it if identity theft happened.

This thread has been highly entertaining !

Considering the OP, saw this yesterday in a BV game.

The official tosses for the opening tip. Home team controls and proceeds to drive to basket and score. The official who tossed immediately went into a "squatting position" and stays there at the circle in that position through the score.

He moves/waddles to the sideline as the ball is coming back up the court. His partner, obviously on his toes, hits the whistle and points at the clock, creating a diversion from what actually occurred.

He walks to the score table, gives a quick explanation, and then he and the other official walk to the "squatter" who now is trying to get upright. After a brief time, he regains his "senses", and play continues on.

First time I had ever seen the tosser get kicked in the privates on the tip. I bet he changes his mechanics for future tosses !

I'll vote for any other post before that one. Interesting, and on topic (unlike 90% of the posts in this thread), but I vote for anything else for the same reason I don't watch America's Funniest Home Videos.

You could just count the people in the crowd as you control them.

Each person must be counted according to their residence.

This time around, everyone is getting the short form (10 questions).

I'm doing a training class for some rookie enumerators. Could you shoot me the 10 questions?
No Haters need respond as I am not asking for the answers.

1) How many people live at your address?
2) You really call this living?
3) Do you own a malamute?
4) What is your highest level of education? (coaches need not answer since it is assumed the answer would be 3rd grade)
5) Can you correctly pronounce "nuclear"?
6) Were you born in this country?
7) If not, were you hatched?
8) If you are Canadian, do you giggle whenever you say "Regina"?
9) Did you serve your country in the Camp Fire Girls?
10) How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood (do not answer in metric)?

The 10 questions being asked can be found at the following website:

The Questions on the Form - 2010 Census

If I remember the form correctly there's room for 4 people for information to be collected.

For additional information about the 2010 Census Form, the following website can also be of help:

About the Census Form - 2010 Census

To answer the other question, no I did not participate in the Census during the olden times. The first Census I worked was the 2000 Census.
