stereotype, moi?

But yes, point well taken regarding the relatively plentiful amount of sports lessons. There was even one about Formula 1 that I would love to wax more eloquently about.

even better, there are multiple basketball and soccer lessons....... but I must say that i've seen plenty of guys playing basketball and soccer around town....On the other hand, there are plenty of women on the cpod staff, why have they not demanded such lessons.... hmmmmm :-)

unfortunately, the nutrition facts panel required in the US isn't required in China. Great idea though.

Wings? As in Detroit Red Wings? Aren't they an American team (notwithstanding mostly Europeans and Canadians playing on the team)? Your profile implies you're Canadian. :-)

I no longer own a home in the US, but when I did, the mortgage interest deduction was pretty cool. I'd hate to see that be removed.

I found out from my accountant that the IRS can still track money flows through receipts, but its a much tougher road for them to do so. Ultimately, that's why the IRS really loves 1099s/1098s and W-2s.
