Quote from: "JOE" The remaining Whites are slowly moving out or else often intermarrying with the next best 'ting - Asians. Just like Fashionista's family. Actually Fashionista would feel right at home because there are so many half breed families and children walking around.





But the Whites there don't mind them so much.

What a cheap shot. Are you proud of yourself Joe?

I'd be better off in Frisco.

Looks like San Fran is about 28-30% higher.

I've learned that if someone asks you a really stupid question and you reply by telling them what time it is, they'll leave you alone

Angry White Male

I said a nice white 'suburb' of Frisco, not downtown itself!



I have driven all around Frisco.  Perhaps I didn't use the right terminology...



Somewhere 'near' Frisco...

Quote from: "Thiel"I got back Monday from a business trip to China. I met up with some Canadian expats. The one that I had an immediate friendly connection with was a fellow Pegger. We drank Tsingtao until the bar closed talking any and all things Winnipeg. At no time do I realize how much this city is part of who I am as when I am away from her.



This city has it's problems, but the people that live here have a connection that I have not seen in any other city in the country. Once a Winnipegger always a Pegger.

I've been to Winnipeg. Worse potholes than the Czuk, more snow than Lake Louise and swarms of mosquitoes so fucking thick they black out the sun in the summer.



Hey, what's with all the short buildings downtown? Regina is less than 1/3 the size of Winnipeg and has more tall buildings downtown.

All part of the Peg's charm.

My brother and his family live in a small community North West of Winnipeg.
