I'm curious as to who's reading my site and where you're from, so please take a moment to leave a comment here and let me know your name and where you're from.
I just wanted to rewrite my question, which was based on the title of one of your posts, but before reading the article. I am from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, have you ever been here? If so, how did you find it?
I haven't had a chance to visit Dartmouth NS yet. I have only been to Amherst, Halifax and Lunenburg.. But there is much more in Nova Scotia that I'd love to see some day in the future.
I came upon your site looking to see your fav. Anchorman quotes! It's the funniest movie around and I'm always quoting that crazy movie! I also noticed you're reading The Davinci Code. That book is amazing and I hope the movie does it justice. You have quite the impressive to-do list. I think it's great. I enjoyed your site. Keep it up!
Hey- Stumbled across your site looking for an achorman quote to rival answer a freinds. Thought your site was kind of intresting so I thought I'd browse for a bit. Besides everyones always telling us Minnesotans that were almost Canadians anyways so I thought I'd see if it was anywhere close to true.... Have a nice day, Brett
I found your site to be very unique and readable. Being in the library field I am always looking for new things to browse. May you achieve all of your goals!!
