        the Duffy thing is crazy. if the RCMP gets their hands on invoices for his hotel stays in PEI he is dun. -- nm - Beaker Jun 9, 08:10 1
        
        I think he goes to jail for a few months before this is all said and done. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jun 9, 08:13
        
        The Redford stuff was ridiculous. - Reagen Jun 9, 08:02 5
        
        The apartment she ordered built into the government building? The Mandela funeral trip? Come on. That's not higher standard. That's taking advantage. - Name Withheld By Request Jun 9, 08:07 4
        
        and peanuts in the overall scheme of things. -- nm - Reagen Jun 9, 08:08 3

        I like Wall. Unless he has been taking secret french lessons, like most Premiers, he'll never make the federal leap. - Name Withheld By Request Jun 9, 08:04 2
        
        I kind of forsee a "flip the table" moment for Harper in the next little bit. He's turning into Nixon. -- nm - Reagen Jun 9, 08:06 1

      - Because it's awesome food! -- nm - Krusty Jun 9, 08:01
      - That said, they all look like good choices. I'd pick #1 or #4, depending on what you are in the mood for - Roger More Jun 9, 07:18
      - Can't I go one day without someone lamenting my lack of imagination? - Imperator Jun 9, 07:16
      - I disagree with that, but that could be because we have an entire neighborhood in St. Louis that is well known for it's Italian food. - Jim Jun 9, 07:16 2
        
        So, it's the default choice? I'm not saying it's not good - it's just a predictable choice, especially for group eating. - Roger More Jun 9, 07:26 1
