I can't wait to go to Vancouver. I miss those wacky Canadians and their cute little accents. They're overwhelmingly polite. Unless you start thowing around terms like "Canuck" and "frog" which many Americans are wont to do after consuming several bottles of Molson. Budweiser and Miller are imports. Old Golds are gold because even our shitty cigarettes are better than their normal ones. And the money is different colors. Those freaking Loonys - someone panhandles you, you reach into your pocket and feel some change, so you toss it at him. Problem is those are dollar coins yr tossing, dumbass. I miss packages measured using the Metric system. I don't really know how much I'm getting, so I don't care. And they're not bathrooms or restrooms - they're "washrooms", eh? I miss the duty-free store, where I can get monster bottles of Jameson for the same price as I'd pay for a fifth here. I'm also planning on getting a bottle of Moskayava (sp?). It's made by the Stolichnaya company I think. It's made with grass. And the bottle is cool. But I've never seen it in the US.

I just hope that the weather holds out. It was beautiful when Anna & I went there last year. I'm hoping for the same this year. I could do without the 2 hour wait at the border coming home though.

hello, kidsinthehall?

True, true...I did forget them. My bad. Also, we mustn't forget some of the other great artistes that the Great White North has given us:
Bob & Doug McKenzie
William Shatner
Neil Young
John Candy
Mike Meyers
Peter Jennings (not an artiste, exactly...)
Alanis Morrissette & the cast of You Can't Do That On Television
Much of the original cast of Saturday Night Live
Brian Adams
Celine Dion
Loverboy (even Canadians need to work for the weekend)
Pamela Anderson Lee
...and so many others.

So yes. Canadians do rule. Something, anyway.

well, you do more washing in there than resting (hopefully)...and unless it's like the one in your living quarters and stuff, you don't do much bathing either...ummm...yea...

I suppose it makes more sense to call it a washroom, but that's just so...er, foreign. I guess it's the British influence or something. It is British Columbia, after all. Although I think the Brits call it a "loo" or "WC" (water closet). I dunno.

Go America.

Three cheers for Yankee cultural dominance.

Yeah, right.

i think they also call it the "toilet"...i know they do in Australia and New Zealand...
