and now some canadian music:
Loverboy-Turn me loose I was born to run, I was born to dream, The craziest boy you ever seen, I gotta do it my way, Or no way at all. And I was here to please, Im even on knees Makin love to whoever I please, I gotta do it my way, Or no way at all. And then you came around, Tried to tie me down, I was such a clown, You had to have it your way, Or no way at all. Well Ive had all I can take, I cant take it no more, Im gonna pack my bags and fly......baby, Or no way at all. So why dont you turn me lose, Turn me lose, Turn me lose, I gotta do it my way, Or no way at all. Why dont you turn me lose, Turn me lose, Turn me lose, I gotta do it my way, I wanna fly. Im here to please, Im even on my knees, Makin love to whoever I please, I gotta do it my way, I gotta do it my way, And when you came around, You tried to tie me down, I was such a clown, You had to have it your way, Well Im sayin no way, So why dont you turn me lose, Turn me lose, Turn me lose, I gotta do it my way, Or no way at all. Why dont you turn me lose, Turn me lose, Turn me lose, I gotta do it my way, I wanna fly. Repeat Turn me lose, Repeat. |

You stand in "line-ups" or "queues" (in Victoria, BC) at the movie, not lines. You're not offended by the term, "Homo Milk". You understand the sentence, "Could you please pass me a serviette, I just spilled my BOWL OF POUTINE" ! You eat chocolate bars instead of candy bars. You drink pop, not soda. You had a Prime Minister who wasn't fluent in either of the official languages (English & French). You know what it means to be 'on the pogey'. You know that a mickey and 2-4's mean "Party at thecamp, eh?!" You can drink legally while still a teen in some provinces. You talk about the weather with strangers and friends alike. You don't know or care about the fuss with Cuba, it's just a cheap place to travel with very good cigars. When there is a social problem, you turn to your government to fix it, instead of telling them to stay out of it. You're not sure if the leader of your nation has EVER had sex and you don't WANT to know if he has! You get milk in bags as well as cartons and plastic jugs. Pike is a type of fish, not some part of a highway. You drive on a highway, not a freeway. You know what a Robertson screwdriver is. You have Canadian Tire money in your kitchen drawers. You know that Mounties "don't always look like that." You dismiss all beers under 6% as "for children and the elderly." You know that the Friendly Giant isn't a vegetable product line. You know that Casey and Finnegan are not a Celtic musical group. You drive with your headlights on during the day (since 1989, all new cars have been fitted with "daytime running lights"). You participated in "Participaction." You're really an ignoramous or something. Maybe tomorrow I'll write a thread about Americans being hick billies and rednecks who don't wash. Actually, it's been done... Andy Kaufman. Valium is what you need...chill out...jeez...this thread was just for fun Thanks E. Here have a Molsen Canadian eh? no way...molson XXX...beauty eh??? |

We'd have invaded Canada but it's too dang cold. That and the only people that can understand you are in Minnesota, North Dakota, and, oddly, Jamaica. Frankly, if were up to me, I'd give you North Dakota. Maybe we could trade North Dakota for a couple of breweries. (oh great.. here comes the Fargo crowd too....running for cover) We're gonna need something for North Dakota. I just wouldn't feel right if we GAVE it away. Maybe some beaver pelts, some of those cool Mountie hats and a few cases of Moosehead? |

I heard Canadians eat baby squirrels or something. Yeah, the people [in the MS town my mother lives in] do too... and I swear when I worked in Louisiana someone made baby squirrel stew for lunch... and they were generous enough to make enough for everyone! **most ppl were in the bathroom when they found out what it was** Thankfully, I always ate my lunch at a restaurant where I could identify the food Anywho.... I know several Canadians, but I've never heard of most of those myths.... except for the beer and nudity that's not pay per view....... but heck, it's like that in Europe too..lol |

One of my little brothers in the frat was a Canadian who played hockey in Juniors. Two semesters with that guy forged my perception of the place forever. Canada is full of honest, loyal, down-to-earth people who will stand by your side at your darkest hour. As an American, does anyone seriously think we could have a better neighbor??? I suppose Syria would be better border-mates? Whisper LTS Sunny You cats rule ... (((((((((((CleanBathroom)))))))))))) You are one amazing cat yourself! And just this one time.....don't tell anybody, eh.........Go Tampa Bay!!!!!!! |

A Robertson is a square heard screwdriver. And I did not know what a queue was until today. |
