Fáilte Exarecr, welcome to the board - Kingston's a cool place (Jamaica is up there as a must go place for me), why don't you tell us a bit more about yourself?

Welcome to WAB, retired n00b I know what you mean about these infernal contraptions. There is always a sense of relief when you know you have again avoided electrocution.

Welcome to the board Exarecr, I have a sister that lives in Kingston. Though I've only been there once it seems like a great city.

Todays a sad day as I get to watch my beloved Leafs loose their fourth game in a row in some new hidious manor. As I try to calm the pulseating veins in my forehead I take comfort there are other Canucks out and about who may share the pain..........
