Oh my! That is so cool about the quarters! I do hope you get a red maple leaf. super cool.

That whole religious thing is quite something, isn’t it? I heard a Buddhist abbot talk about when he was training in Thailand (I think) and the various religeons attempting to convert the natives. One church offered free bicycles, so everybody joined and got their bicycle. Then another church offered something else and everybody joined and got that freebe. When the dust settled they mostly stayed Buddhist. He said he was talking to one of the trainers in one of the religeons involved who told him they sent missionaries to Thailand to train the missionaries more than convert the people! Oh! So now when I see someone on a street corner flogging redemption, I offer them assistance with their spiritual development. ; )

And creepy about the religious stalkers, Norm finally scared the JW’s away the last time they came by telling them they were stalking us- lol!

Just to let you know, one quarter, in every olympic quarter roll, is also extra special, with the maple leaf in red – so far only the men’s hockey, women’s hockey and Cindy Klassen quarters are the quarters I have (not sure if its just these 3 quarters) but they look really great!
