Thank god we don't have that communist Canadian style healthcare.

It's actually part of the insured coverage I get through my employer. But I do think massage maybe be part of health plans in other provinces, if you get a referral from you doctor.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

We never had science fairs.

ION, Mice Infest UK Parliament: House Of Lords Considers Cats For Westminster Palace

LONDON — The House of Lords has a momentous decision to make: Should it get cats to chase the mice that have infested one of Britain's most famous buildings?

London's Houses of Parliament, also known as Westminster Palace, has rodents, and the peers aren't exactly sure what to do about it.

Ivan Anthony Moore-Brabazon, the House's administration chief, on Wednesday turned down suggestions to acquire cats. He says the felines could ingest mice poison or wander around the chamber and disrupt business.

He favors the current tactic of using poison and mousetraps.

Cats in Parliament would be awesome!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

The thing about mac's science fairs in ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, is that from 2nd grade on they are mandatory and they have to be constructed on the scientific method - identify a problem to investigate, form a hypothesis, blah de blah blah. You can't build a volcano and write a report about how they work. My 6th grade science experiment used a foot controlled air pump, mason jars filled with cotton, and filterless cigarettes to show the effects of smoking on lungs. first cigarette I ever tried.

Speak for yourself, Sphinx-boy.

I think a ferret horde would do as well.

I think I need to go to Parliament and say, "Use cats." Then after a couple of years, you go back in time and say, "No, use ferrets." Then we compare notes.

I back this plan. You know why? Science works, bitches!

The scientific method plus time travel could solve lots of issues. For example, some people say that if only Hitler had never seized power, things would have been much better. Others say, "Well, how do you know? Things could have been worse."

So, we send someone back in time to kill Hitler. Then we find out. Of course, if things end up worse someone would have to go back in time to tell the assassin, "Dude, don't."

And at night? They could put on the wigs and have Cat Parliament.
