Ont. Online Certificate Application Center

Had a really frustrating time filling out the birth certificate application for Sneaky Pete. I'd get it almost finished, click next and a nasty message would pop up saying

"The online application is not available at this time. Please try later." Can a computer be sarcastic?  

I would have gone crazy if it hadn't been for my trusty RoboForm tool bar. RoboForm took the info  I  typed  into it, and plugged  it into the form  with a click of my  mouse. Always double check your forms. Oops! Must have typed something in the wrong space. 'Eensy weensy spider' is not my maiden name!
