. . . so i spent the better part of half an hour looking for a two dollar bill. for the record, they haven't made two dollar bills in canada since, uhh, about ten years ago, or something. i finally found one, but the damn thing's from 1944, and there's no parliament building on it. it looks like a bunch of farm houses on the banks of a river, one of them might be a church. either way, no flag, so the search must continue.
on a completely unrelated note i'm never looking in my brother's room for something for as long as I live. :crazy-eye

damn, I already knew about half of that and half of what I didnt know is only logical and the other half of the half I didnt know are things that I never cared to know...
but if thats knowing it all then why does it not state who created the word Transubstantciation ? or that Hitler along with Napoleon and all the other great world conquerors were all acclaimed Catholics?
or that two of the writers of the gosples were not even apostles...
And there must be something on twinkies and gum on how they take longer to digest than plastics do to deteriorate...
Or how bout that newspapers use an 8th grade reading level in their publications.
I could be wrong in the above stated, but again thats just extra stuff that I think I know...
