I'm late, but Happy Canada Day! I've been spreading politeness and friendliness (*snicker*) to our US visitors at Westercon this weekend. The highlight of the day had to be the cake shaped like the Serenity movie logo. And taking pictures of a girl (who will remain nameless for the time) dressed as Kaylee enjoying a strawberry.

How was Westercon, Saint Jayne? I totally couldn't make it because it was like $40 to get in for the one night plus my sister is getting married tomorrow so I had family in town. Please tell me it rocked and you met tons of Browncoats, both local and out of town. Did you take pictures? I must see!
Great Big Sea is going to be at the Stampede this year? Wow, I'm out of the loop. What day are they going to be there? Maybe we can make a shindig out of it or something.
Anyway, I've totally hijacked the Canada Day thread so I'm going to shut up now.

Day's over now (I carefully stayed in, avoiding the heat and the drunken lunatics prowling the street), but thanks for the wishes.

Too far away (Winnipeg) and too little money :(

Can we expect something in the Blue Sun Room soon?

I went out around the supper hour but stayed in during the night. Finally got to see Memento and from our appartment we (actually, my wife) could readily see the fireworks.

Really? I've found it easly to get amime (it's even at my local HMV) but difficult to find others that enjoy it.
And what do you mean that it costs twice as much as what's in the US? I've compared .com's to .ca's/localstores and found no difference aside from the exchange rate (read: equivalent).

YMMV, of course. I'm speaking from experience in Ottawa, the land where everything is overpriced and never goes on sale ('cause, of course, "everyone" in Ottawa is rich 
).

Shitty deal. At least there's the internet.
