This make me want to cry. It could have been the US, but no, the greedy jerks took over and drove the system. It makes me want to cry.

Remember, watch those socialized countries...they are dangerous to our comfortable existence on the edge of the christian/capitalist connundrum.

Can I be a Canadian, Eriedearie ? I promise to pick up my trash, and I love hockey and independent films.

I had a college professor who steadfastly maintained the US should allow Canada to annex and govern the United States. This was many years ago. He presented his proposal in a humorous manner but in further discussions you knew he was serious. Being a callow youth, I didn't recognize the greater good in his proposal, even though I'm of French-Canadian heritage and spent much time there as a kid and young adult. I guess the only question remaining for me to this day is: would we have ruined Canada by now or would Canada have improved the US?

Well then Bigb - you won't make it in Canada buddy! You gotta get your beer from "Da Beer Stor'"

Ray I think they'd let you slide on that one - unless you move to Quebec! LOL

1kielson - good question there. That would take quite a bit of pondering...

Hey - Happy March you guys!
