After reading a few dozen posts, I feel I should apologize on behalf of my fellow Canadians. We bicker like children over the various lies our leaders tell us to distract ourselves from the fact we are friggin idiots!

A country full of political zealots who all feel that their way is the one and only path, because that's what they were told by the CBC. I am so sick and disgusted with our righteous ... almost religious ... indignation when faced with ... (oh the horror!) ... an opposing opinion.

Anyway, as you can all see I am not a lot better, so again I just want to apologize for my Canadian brothers and sisters. We will make it up to you one day, when we grow up.

Canadians are used to being shafted by their mobile telcos, based on the rates we keep paying we almost seem to crave it, but this poor bugger got a bill for $85,000 in just over a month simply for passing data from his phone to his computer. Considering what he used his mobile for isn't all that crazy a thing ... it's not like he was running a server farm on the thing ... Bell might want to consider rethinking it's rates. The fact this bill was expected to be taken seriously, and the fact they allowed it to get this far out of hand in the first place, says a lot about how Bell sees its customers in the grand scheme of things.

Submission + - Snowed by SCO ... and that's a quote. (forbes.com)

I especially like the reference to the "gang of amateur sleuths" who haunt the halls of a site called Groklaw. I guess in his eyes they aren't paid enough to warrant the kind of respect they clearly deserve.
