  • Here in Canada in Ontario, up until about five years ago, they used to sell panettone everywhere during Christmas … grocers used to stock them everywhere and about four or five different brands. Cheaper ones came in all plastic wrapping and more expensive ones came wrapped in plastic and contained in fancy decorative cardboard boxes. And back then, we had the choice of size and they were usually large sized.

    Now we have limited supplies and the displays for them are even hard to find. We only have one brand now ‘Massimo’ and they are more the smaller size. Every year now, all my Italian Canadian friends go on a frenzy looking for them … as soon as they come out, they disappear.

    Don’t know what happened to the supply but we don’t see much of them any more.












  • Hitler? … What are you talking about? … we need to have full blown genocidal war, concentration camps where millions are murdered every day, mass military invasions of countries, nuclear war and complete lawlessness throughout the land with people murdering, raping and mutilating each other … anything less than that is not yet Hitler.

    So stop your alarmism all the time, it’s not yet Hitler.






  • I usually hold onto the box of anything I buy brand new for about three months. After that you can get rid of it.

    Electronics either work or they don’t, there is seldom anything in between.

    If your device doesn’t fail or develop problems within a month or two, then it will last the warranty period and much longer if you take care of it.

    I just hang onto the box for two or three months just to be sure.

    The only other reason to hang onto the box is if you plan on reselling the device in a year or two. It’s a lot easier to resell for top dollar or a higher price if your device is clean, undamaged, has original manuals and the original box.


  • I’ve always believed that all Olympic countries take part in some kind of enhanced performance drug program.

    The poor countries try it and they are easily identified and disqualified

    The mid tier countries do it cautiously and sometimes get away with it

    The rich countries like the US do it all the time but they are so sophisticated that they can’t be caught.
