I thought that i was living in a time where technology was just the be all and end all...well not in Canada apparently...
I was TRYING to order that mp3 player i was talking about down there...but Canada is behind the times and doesn't have it yet...are you kidding me!? It's supposed to get here sometime in spring...well guess what Best Buy...i don't HAVE until then...i want one now!...haha...(i'm not usually an impatient person). I'm slightly embarassed by this actually...it's almost as if us Canucks were on a different planet...all the stereotypes seem to be true in this case...
I phoned around to a few different online stores that carry the Zune player i so desire...and NONE of them ship to Canada...i guess all those businesses couldn't be bothered to pay for all those dogsleds delivering the product to my igloo...and it would be even more difficult with the minus 80 Celsius and 10 feet of snow...and i guess we don't have paved roads either...or running water for that matter...who am i kidding...it's wishful thinking to have mainstream music at all...i can hardly get an AM radio station up here!!!...
well anyways...I ended up resulting to eBay much to my mom's dismay...(she has trust issues)...it turns out middle aged guys living in their parents basement don't have any problem selling and delivering to us crazy Canadians...
on a more cheery side note: i think i found my font of choice...

Sometimes businesses try to charge extra for shipping to Alaska. Which is so bogus becasue the USPS has the same rates for EVERY state in the union. Why are people SO stupid?
yeah! no kidding! i'm glad you alaskans can kind of relate to us...you're probably some of the only americans who can understand and for that...i salute you
