   heh!! busted. Welp, they say imitation is the finest form of flattery. Keeping that in mind, I’m guessing the individual is a yank, so sue for plagerism. You’ll be rich!

   And now the main page is AWAL, although the archives still show the similarity.
3. someone on March 18, 2003 at 21:32 said:

   I was just learning how to put one together and you noticing the similarities didn’t just e-mail me and ask me if I needed any help instead you forced me to take the site down. For that I say FUCK YOU. That’s some bullshit.. BTW Canada sucks.
4. heather on March 18, 2003 at 21:48 said:

   haha! yeah, okay. i’m supposed to email you to ask you if you need help stealing my design? i think you have it a little backwards, gus. if you’d only asked me first, i would have been more than happy to give advice.
5. Edge on March 18, 2003 at 23:03 said:

   My, my, my… aren’t we a bit testy there, Gus? Being inspired by one’s blog design is one thing. I have to admit, when I first started blogging, I borrowed heavily from another site’s design, but I never outright STOLE it. Yes, it is stealing if you did it without permission. Perhaps you’re new to this blogging thing and you didn’t know: so be it. Now you do, and you should carry on.
   Oh, and BTW: Canada doesn’t suck. It blows.
   LMAO
   (Just kidding, Heather: you and I BOTH know different.)

   I thought Canada was the 51st state? Oh well, learn something new every day ;)

8. fizzgig on March 19, 2003 at 00:41 said:

   Regardless… its all good. I mean shit! Simply another poorly thought out American response. Water under the bridge dog :) We get used to it up here :p
   Not, that.. y’kno, I speak for any majority or anything.

   hahahahaaaaaaaa…the dullard didn’t even change the font, the colour…how hilarious! Stupidity makes me laugh. Wonder what country he’s from…? Not Canada, obviously, especially with such a witless retort.

    Just continuing a long line of taking things from Canada, like the Vancouver Grizzles, the Montreal Expos (soon) and the Stanley Cup (every year), oh and the gold medal in figure skating.
11. andrea on March 19, 2003 at 07:05 said:

    pbtttt.
    hey, that’s flattery for ya, though. i’ve never seen anyone steal any of my designs.
12. col on March 19, 2003 at 08:48 said:

    hee, i love when people act like they’re in grade school! it’s entertainment for us at least :)
    oh and andrea, i plan to rip off your site next week!
13. Dor on March 19, 2003 at 09:32 said:

    yo.
14. andrea on March 19, 2003 at 09:37 said:

    doh!
    :P
15. julie on March 19, 2003 at 10:03 said:

    haha! what does winning sports competitions and buying shitty sports teams have anything to do with stealing a site design? what a completely useless argument.
16. (the cookie losing)Heather on March 19, 2003 at 10:58 said:

    Out of curiosity, how did you “force” it to be taken down? (And how did you find it in the first place??)
17. heather on March 19, 2003 at 11:35 said:

    i never did any such thing! i found it in my referral logs and linked it. that’s all. he’s the one with the guilty conscience.
18. shelagh on March 19, 2003 at 20:17 said:

    “somone” also needs to steal a spellcheck.
19. Celine Dion on March 20, 2003 at 01:47 said:

    I guess I’ll take the last word on this. It sounds like all ya social reject programmers need to spend a little more time outside, in the public among people. Eh. A good book for y’all to check out will be, The 48 Laws Of Power, Law #14 – Never do for yourself what you can get others to do for you. That’s what it’s aboot.
20. i, jack! on March 20, 2003 at 01:57 said:

    i doubt even canadians have any respect for celine dion.
21. harpoon on March 20, 2003 at 02:21 said:

    we don’t. she’s a sea hag.
22. Celine Dion on March 20, 2003 at 04:54 said:

    Such hurtful comments from my own countrymen. I am the greatest singer in Canadian history. Eh?
23. Suzanne on March 20, 2003 at 09:38 said:

    I am very impressed that he went to all the trouble to steal it, and then (it’s still up, btw) insults it. A class act all the way around. If someone like that thinks Canada isn’t the best country in the world, eh, what are we losing? I say we’re gaining one less idiot in our midst.
24. (the cookie losing)Heather on March 20, 2003 at 11:34 said:

    Darn, he put it back up but doesn’t have comments. *sigh* Why is it the Americans who most proudly stand up as Americans are the ones who make the rest of us look like asses if we’re like them?
25. gussdogg on March 20, 2003 at 13:10 said:

    Canada already has enough idiots.
26. fizzgig on March 20, 2003 at 20:00 said:

    Just when I thought he couldn’t sink any lower…
27. i, jack! on March 21, 2003 at 02:33 said:

    like, oh my gawd, what a lamer.
    for the record i think heather’s formatting is excellent, including the wise choice of lightyellow background colour. and its simplicity allows my old-world browsers to view it.
    and to parenthical heather: i think the reason is that there is no minimum iq requirement on freedom of speech.
28. gussdogg on March 21, 2003 at 02:59 said:

    parenthical is not a word. The word your feeble mind is looking for is ‘paraphrase’. Man, there are alot of idiots in Canada.
29. i, jack! on March 21, 2003 at 03:43 said:

    you are correct on one point only little puppy: i did indeed misspell parenthetical. thank you for supporting my argument though.
30. (the cookie losing)Heather on March 21, 2003 at 07:28 said:

    There should at least be minimum IQ requirements to breed. (And, moron, *I* am “the parenthetical Heather.” Note the capitalization. Note the lack of superfluous U’s. Trust me, your own countryfellows think you’re an imbecile as well.)
31. gussdogg on March 21, 2003 at 15:04 said:

    I would barely call MA in the Union. You guys really should get some sort of life instead of sitting by the computer, eating Oreos by the pound and responding to things that people write on message boards. Last time I checked Mass was only a territory and not a state. Do people really have the internet up there, I thought that New Englanders were still communicating in grunts. Eh?
32. col on March 24, 2003 at 02:49 said:

    Wow, some people really have too much time on their hands :)
    Yes, we have a life, it’s called visiting our friend who has a blog. What’s your reason for being here? Trying to steal something else?
33. gussdogg on March 24, 2003 at 23:29 said:

    I am stealing your site next, bitch.
