Deer maybe, but no damn bugs.
I'll take warm squishy bugs anyday over freezing cold, trapped indoors watching last seasons ride videos!

Don't forget to factor in Living expence out there. Take your current salery, then multiply X 2

I'm sure Gixxerdale could use someone to clean and maintain his bike while he's at work

Twice the salary do I factor in the exchange rate before or after I multiply? I'd rather go from Cad to US directly, then multiply by 2.77666898 as drgibson suggests.

Will pay reimburse my debts as well?

Don't forget the increase in taxes and you have to pay for your own Health Care.

Jobs are easy to find. Finding one that keeps pace with the ever rising cost of living in SoCal is near impossible. So I plan on moving,..... North,..... but not across the border. I may be nuts, but I'm not that crazy,.............yet!

Doubt the taxes would be more than what we pay up here (Only about half of my gross pay makes it way into my hands) and would save a fortune on heating bills, winter clothes for the whole family and more important cheaper fuel.

Dragging this one back out of the archives ... sadly, it's that time of year again.
