Do the French in Canada celebrate Bastille Day? Just wondering if they feel a might miffed also, having been absorbed into the British Empire and missing out on that whole French Revolution thing.

is St. Jean Baptiste Day. They call it a 'national holiday' even though they are a province and no other province celebrates it.

One orders a gin & tonic. The next orders a cuba libre. The blond says, "I'll have a fifteen." The bartender says, "A what?" The blond says, "duh, you idiot, seven & seven!"

Bad joke.
