        Canadian's Brace For New Conscription Law Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution


        quote:


        Alberta, Canada
        11:22 p.m.

        Alberta today announed plans for a history making sweep towards national protection, by placing into effect a mandatory signup of all males 18 years or older.

        Opposition had been vocal, and at times violent acts have seemed inevitable.

        Jack Sprat, of a grassroots party opposed to conscription, was taken into custody today for terroristic phone calls to government offices.
        So what's the source of this . .. some twelve year old's blog. Its not witty enough or detailed enough to be a good piece of satire.

        I thought Jack Spratt would have said "I can eat no lean and will therefore fail the medical"

          Too bad. Must suck to be reliant on something you hate. Thankfully my politics fit my job just fine

                No see, if I had an actual job it would dwarf my income from Albertan oil. Or if I hadn't made some poor investment decisions, my income from Albertan oil would start to approach a level where I can maintain the poor student lifestyle.
