Canada, I threw a stick within meters of you last weekend.
Edited on Tue Dec-30-08 09:58 PM by LaraMN
We went up to my uncle's house (which is basically right splat on the border of MN and Canada). I walked out onto the partially frozen river and threw a stick- which you may recall resembled an skinny arm with a lumpy elbow- toward the Canadian side of the river.

You did not respond.

Wtf is up? Also, you look exactly like Minnesota.

2. Well, I expected as much.
I was rather disappointed.
All I got was trees.

3. So, are they going to murder 400 Americans and maim 1,400 others,
or are they going to act all, like, "Yea, We're Canadian", and ignore it?

4. I don't know. I should have thrown my shoes.
Or rather, I should have crossed to the other side, stood on the Canadian shore, and chucked my shoes back at the U.S. side.

:P

5. Careful, or the mounties will get you.
They come at night, and will beat you with their silly hats before they trample you with their horses and then drown you in pissy beer.

7. Hey, Lebatt is no pissy beer!
As a Mexican, I object to calling Canadian beer pissy.

Canadian beer is third only to German and Mexican beer.

:P

11. The fact that Belgium and England do not make your top 3 disturbs me.
Deeply.

Congratulations.

8. Wrong! I have yet to win any sort of pageant.
Ultimate power remains tantalizing near, yet frustratingly outside my grasp.
