Yup. That was outlined in the forward to the book I am now reading. Not only do you not like using the metric system for day to day life, you have your own 'imperial' system that was different than the one we used to use, which was based on the old English Imperial system, which is not that surprising when you think about it. Your gallon is pretty much exactly 4 litres, which is a bit less than our old imperial gallon. About the only place that the old system is still used in Canada is in contruction measurements for materials and lengths / widths. A 2 x 4 is still called that and it is sold by the foot not metre.

HABS IN 7!!

The Measure of All Things. All this talk of the metric system sent me to our personal library to find the above. It's the story of 2 French scientists that set out during the French Revolution (1792) on a 7 year quest to measure a metre and set the world to a standard (metric) measurement. Seems that there is a slight error in their calculations that still holds true. By the way, you in USA are slowly converting to the metric system, but most of you will nto notice. You are the only major country that does not use it, so for economic reasons you have no other choice.

EURO 2020 (actually 2021)
Sabres Fan in NS replied to Sabres Fan in NS's topic in Soccer / Football's Topics
You guys did play pretty well, but the possession numbers don't tell the whole story. If not for the defenders ass in the way, by luck, you would have drawn late. I think you guys probably have 2 shots left ... WC in 2022 and EURO in 2024, although that is 3 years from now, so maybe you are right. -

The score holds. Sorry @Huckleberry -
Fine. They have a lot on their plates right now, so delay this until closer to the draft is fine by me, for whatever that's worth.

Spain are through to the semis on penalties. Not a great way to end a great match. -
Welcome!! 🍺 I think the Sabres need 1 goalie for sure and maybe two if Linus has had enough ... 😉

While this is the case, I agree with @nfreeman, that the wording of the 'scolding' was not acceptable.

Still 1 -1 in Extra Time. The Swiss are down a man on a bit of questionalble red card. The tackle was cleats up, so the red was justified, IMO. -

Official Don Granato Named New Sabres Head Coach

I told ya, man, it's Croatia. It's a very happy place and makes me happy, but that Adriatic coastal sun will tear the hide right off of you. LOL!! Later on that holiday, when the careful absence of tan lines was complete, I could show you those photos, but they are locked away in a safe place. -

While I do not think that @PASabreFan's response to you is anything other than inappropriate and he should apologize for it, you are far off base here. PA has been a very loyal Sabre fan long before the Pegula's took over. He is a SabreSpace veteran and now a portion of his purpose here is to raise questions concerning the owners of the team it is not his sole pupose. As for the ignore feature, ir is not very useful here, because it only works if no one ever quotes the poster that you are ignoring. -
Woof!! I'm not sure you got the way I drifted, but okay.

Not to make light, but for your sake I hope that they are all bankrobbers and that you will be safe lost in that supermarket.
