That's right, after spending 10 days in Canada I'm going to go all metric, fuck the U.S.

Seriously there's no difference between 65 and 70F but a noticeable difference between 15 and 20 C

i like filling my ride with liters of gas, plus in my mind $1.11 feels cheaper.

from where I sit I'm 370 km from Ireland, that's neato

now if only I could figure out what 20mm of rain is and how to get some normal sized straws I'd be good to go.

Rockin. I love the metric system. It just makes more sense. If it's below 0, it's freezing. If it's above 0, it's not. None of this 32 degrees is freezing bullshit.

metric system is much easier. using onlymultiple of 10 you can do almost everything
