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.:tongue:

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.:cry:

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.devil

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.grumble

So why dont you turn me lose,
Turn me lose,
Turn me lose,
I gotta do it my way,
Or no way at all.blushing

Why dont you turn me lose,
Turn me lose,
Turn me lose,
I gotta do it my way,
I wanna fly.drinker

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,explode

So why dont you turn me lose,
Turn me lose,
Turn me lose,
I gotta do it my way,
Or no way at all.love

Why dont you turn me lose,
Turn me lose,
Turn me lose,
I gotta do it my way,
I wanna fly.brokenheart

Repeat

Turn me lose,

Repeat.

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. :wink:

(oh great.. here comes the Fargo crowd too....running for cover)
We will take North Dakota, but i do not think we can give up our breweries. How about you just come drink us dry, and then go back, cause i am sure that by the next day we would still have more!laugh


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** sick sick sick

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?
