Just Not ready

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Anywhere is better than Kamloops. I was there for a few days in the summer - the place is a drug addict haven. There are better places to go. By Zihaut - do you mean Zihautanejo Mexico? If so, they will be affected the same as Canada, plus I would be worried about my safety down there.

Unemployed auto workers could become miners at the Ring of Fire or as pipe layers on the energy corridor.

Maybe Guillebault could find them green energy/tech jobs of the patch monkeys have yet claimed then all.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Hard disagree. My unc worked for Kamloops PD for years. One of the better places to live if you have your shit together. A lot less PC, a whole lot more love.

I'm looking to move out there. It has heart, which is more than I can say about this rat-infested city where people hate each other. I love this city, but it unquestionably sucks....and not a little.

I'm just going by what I saw when I was there and I definitely wouldn't consider moving there. I also hate cities and I do consider Kamloops to be a city - maybe not quite as bad as Vancouver, Calgary or Edmonton for example, but still a city. For me, rural or small town life is where I'd rather be.

If I were to move to a city, Kamloops would be a serious consideration but probably out towards the Shushwap/Adams Lake. Not too far to do supply runs.

I prefer places that build stuff like Kamloops that places that just service stuff like Kelowna. Much easier to get stuff done.

The idea of Blobby Brown functioning in the 3rd world is arresting.

Dallas area... 30 min from the glimmering shores of the Shuswap.

I don't want to head up to Rock Creek and run into an angry Wiebo skinning his knuckles on the ground at the local cafe demanding more Sanka and wondering why Fields went tits up.

Adams Lake is a monster. Its so clean and beautiful but fuck that is a cold deep lake. It runs from Barriere to Scotch Creek. Its got to be the deepest lake in the province.

Barriere/Little Fort is a dump.

Jaguar Meat has an Only Fans actress riding the bus with him.

Her name isn't Mary.

Across Quesnel lake from that small hotel coming in from the Horsefly side is the Mitchell river and the most Griz I've ever seen in BC. They were thick in there

That's a bold statement. One I think a few might disagree with.

The true Canadian, getting out while the getting is good.
But no doubt my man Blobert would quickly become the most loyal Mexican ever...

Plato's Retreat. Mitchell Bay is just up the Ditch Road from Horsefly towards Likely.

There is a quarry near Mitchell Bay where the rock for the Vancouver Public Library was mined.

A friend spent a summer tagging Griz out of Revelstoke. Hover drops from a helicopter into slide shoots full of devils club, stinging nettles and alder to three around looking for dens. What fun.

You get to go to all the high end places like Quesnel, Horsefly and Old Crow. Thunder Bay must feel like Paris. Yellowknife is like Rome.,pe

Never been to Yellowknife or TB but I have unfortunately been to Paris. I can't believe people travel from all around the world to see that place.
