I'd like to use it for my own blog, but I would like to see the original.<br /><br />I am from BC, the interior. I am NOT impressed with these games at all. We are losing schools, hospital services (hospital beds, operating rooms, surgeons, nurses), have shitty infrastructure etc. etc. and I doubt my little corner of the province is going to see much good coming from this.Wandering Coyotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01478039463695542535noreply@blogger.com
