Does anyone know what regular postage is from the US to Canada?????

I believe it's $0.69

Can anyone else confirm that?? I wanna be sure before I pop this stuff in the mail.

THere's no post office near us... and me gots no way to get around other than the bus today...

Would I lead you astray?

I just got a letter from USCIS, 1st class mail from MO, $0.69. My brother sent a letter home from WA, with $0.69. Have you weighed your envelope to make sure it is less than 1 oz.?

It's been a while Liz, how are things?

Speaking of shovelling.. i've got to find our shovel. I had a small one when I left Canada.. and we just got 6-8 inches of snow here yesterday in CT.. need to do some shovelling tonite when we get home!

You've got to adapt, improvise, overcome...oh wait, you're not in the Marines.

As Canadian you should be used to shovelling, after all we had Mulroney as PM.

Good morning Charles. You missed this post while you were offline. It's an alternative to coffee for you.

P.S. I am looking forward to snow when I go home for Christmas because it is now a novelty item for me. However, I am not looking forward to the cold, nor to the worries of winter driving and flight delays.

It's just a radio show that comes on every Sunday morning, it's on in lots of places, has been running about 20+ years, they just do music flashbacks and news/comedy stuff, like they just had Steve Martin doing a skit and now they are playing ZZTop, beer drinkers and hell raisers - just flash back to the 70's, 80's type stuff.
