I've known a couple of Canadian girls and, so far, I've been very impressed by them. They seem very intelligent and enjoy having a good time. I knew this one Canadian girl who gave the best massage I've ever had in my whole, entire existence. I've never been so relaxed in my life. I don't know if she was making it up, but she told me it was common for Canadian girls to begin an evening by wearing scanty clothing while giving their guys massages in front of the fireplace followed by serving them a French brandy and a Cuban cigar. I almost gave up my citizenship right there on the spot.

Canadians are fine by me. The Canadians fought bravely in both world wars. They gave everything they had at the Somme, and they were there with us storming the beaches in '44.

Closest I've ever been there is when I touched a rock in Canada in the Boundary Waters.

Cant tink of a bedder nordern neighbor to have, we know who's side they're going to be on in a real scrape.

Do you guys think that it would be good or bad if dragons were still around in these modern days and times?

I think that, potentially, it would be kind of good. There are probably lots of really useful pharmaceuticals that could be developed from dragon parts ... like they're doing with shark and frog parts, now. Plus, dragons would probably keep the moron population down.

The bad part would be their poop, of course. It's bad enough when a bird poops on your car windshield, but if a dragon did, heck ... he'd probably crush your car or, at best, it would take days to dig it back out.

Vancouver is one of the coolest places I've ever been. There was a time when I seriously considered moving there.

Watching the Olympics makes me think about how different people are ... I mean, around the world and all.

Like, for example, in some countries you can hire "mourners". These are people to whom you pay money in exchange for mourning for a deceased loved one ... or anybody else that's deceased, I guess. I don't know how much they charge or how much mourning you get for five bucks or so, but it seems like a pretty good business. Maybe a little depressing, though.

Still, it makes me wonder if you could make any money being a mourner for hire right here in the good ol' US of A. Like pet mourning, maybe. Some people feel silly having a full-fledged funeral for a pet, so there aren't a lot of normal mourners in situations like that. Given that, being a pet mourner for hire seems to make sense. It would relieve the bereaved pet owner of the normal feelings of guilt and embarrassment while simultaneously helping them work through the loss. Of course, there's also the issue of praying somebody out of Purgatory. Pets probably don't have much of a chance to make it out since they don't have a lot of people praying for them. I'll have to check it out and find out if there's already somebody doing this. If not, it might be a very opportune time to open shop.

Only if T-Rex was still around so they could fight with the dragons. Who would you put your money on?

Canada freakin' rocks.

Vancouver, Vancouver Island, Toronto, Montreal, Quebec City, Fredericton, Halifax, St. John, St. John's and all the places in between.

GREAT donuts, GREAT beer (especially LaBatt's Max Ice) and gorgeous women (especially in the French Provinces).

Oh yeah. And the BEST strippers in the world.

I always thought it was jerome ignla out there eating

Canada is the best possible neighbor you could ever ask for. I love it there. I loved touring there. I would move to Calgary or Vancouver anyday...

Love Montreal. French menus, french signs, all the kids speaking Quebecois... it's like being in a different country.

i have zero interest goin any further north than kc. Yanks are a strange brew. indeed.

Its one of those things that is engrained into you. Just from my visits to the states, I've noticed different accents in the New England area, NY, Texas, Flordia. I recently went to Boston and couldn't understand a damn thing they were saying, one of the weirdest accents i've ever heard. Me and a couple of buddies went down to Florida not too long ago, and was amazed that whenever someone asked us where we were from, it always began with "y'all".

Thats great that you enjoying wyoming, it does get annoying whenever they show canada, its always a clip of it snowing or people freezing their asses off. In Toronto, this winter was nothing compared to what hit the northeast united states. Its the misnomers that are annoying. I'm sure you are used to that living in Kansas City.

Actually, I live in Nashville. Home of Little Jimmy Dickens and the Tomato Aspic sandwich.

You run into a lot of "ya'lls" here, too. At first, I thought everybody was really tired and yawning while they spoke. Turns out, they just can't count.

As for the weather, it's in the nerve centers of the beholder I guess. So, if a guy wants to live practically next door to the North Pole, that's his decision.
