The new addition is a group photo of Aryeh Eller, Don Witter, Jr.,
Andrew Schulman and John Wasak, taken on the ocassion of The Abaca
group concert in NY. True, Don Witter Jr. is not a regular RMCG
poster, but he is one of five in that group.

Keep 'em oming!

It's nice to see how much the value of my house went up last year. Median

the stuff and pitched 'it up north ...kinda' in your direction. Looks like
it worked! We're a little warmer and you're a little colder. I guess you
can blame me.

This Canadian says... toque.

And it's very un manly to wear one unless it's at least minus 10. Women can
wear one at the first sign of frost, but women can manage to look great in
anything.

Well, thank you, Brian. Now, when next I cross the border and I'm asked "Do
you have anything to declare?" I can confidently say "Yes, I declare that
the ski-cap on your head is starting to look an awful lot like a toque!"....

Well, just try and tell that one to the ever growing numbers in these parts
sporting one...(actually if we're counting wind-chill, then I'm pretty sure
it's been at least minus ten for quite some time now...sure seems that
way...)

With wind chill it needs to be about minus 25 - note that is minus 25
celcius, not farenheit.

They seem to also be acceptable with the "how stupid can I look" set this
season at any temperature as long as they are a) not covering any part of
your ear b) displaying the Toronto Maple Leaf logo.

Sounds like a line in a bad romance novel: "she was at my door wearing
