- ---Man, why is everyone on my back all of a sudden? I was just emphasizing the
- isolation and relative lack of places to go and see in Sackville. I am a music
- student, and believe me, I can find many, many things to occupy my time other
- than bars and computers, but both of them seem to be a pretty popular past
- time here. Believe it or not, this area contains a lot of creative people so
- please don't judge everyone because of my little exagerations. And I agree that
- life is only as boring as you make it; rest assured, my life is much too busy
- to be boring. Again, I agree that bars aren't the magical solution to anything,
- but they can be fun. Anyway, I hope I cleared up any misunderstandings.---
