Re: OT- Best Snack Donut
Well it maybe a northern thing also.
I work in the US quite often and I have tried many KK donuts. Unfortunately when I eat them I always think about how much better Tim Hortons are.
BTW, Canada is recognized as the Doughnut capital of the world. Canadians eat more doughnuts per capita than any other country.
There are more than 2,000 Tim Hortons in existence. If you scale this up for the US population, it would be like KK having 20,000 doughnut shops. One doughnut every 184 square miles! Just think of it, New York city would have almost 800.

Re: OT- Best Snack Donut
1) Never heard of Tim Horton's. Do Tastykakes (originally available only in Philly area) count as donuts? Speaking of non-donuts, give me a soft pretzel anytime. (Real fresh Philly ones, not those nasty "New York" style ones they serve in every restaurant, mall, airport, and stadium in the country. Is that truly how they make soft pretzels in NYC? Bleah!)
2) Looking at the OT subjects lately, it seems that SEIV players are interested in music, reading, war, drinking, and donuts. When someone wants to know everyone's favorite outfit, you'll know SEIV has made a major breakthrough!

Absolutely! Unless sugar is crystalizing out at the bottom, it's not sweet enough

Hokay, I'll play... For real work, Visual Basic (or Visual C++ when I have to, but VB is just so much easier). I've also been fooling around with Blitz Basic (and Dark Basic to a lesser extent) for games. I guess that gives me a moderate reading on the geek-ometer...

Re: OT- Best Snack Donut
The sweet tea again. Oh no. Iced tea with sugar. It is how it is always done up here in Canada.
Unless I am wrong about what sweet tea is??

Is that the Blitz Basic on the Amiga? If so that's extra points on the geek-o-meter for using an antiquated cult OS=-)
DMM: Baggy shorts (that's short troUsers, USA) and t-shirt. By preference the Tshirt should display some obscure geek-culture reference (cult manga, little known comix, any of the Tshirts sold by http://www.ntk.net )
For me though the ultimate fashion accessory would be Spider Jerusalem's sunglasses.
