While you're being proud of them, seeing as they're all getting on in years and on a fixed income, why don't you ask them if they'd like to pay their own damn medical bills?

Oh, I forgot. You're a socialist. :rambo: If they didn't pay taxes through the roof during their lives, maybe they would have the money to pay for their own medical bills.

That would depend on the particular Canadian you asked.

Doesn't particularly matter to me.

Quote:Geese? Are you serious? I hate geese. I guess it's kind of a personal war, though.

You Canadians can have those geese back.

PLEASE, those damn honkers wake me up every morning and crap green sticks all over. I'd love to grab one of those hissing bastards by the neck.

You have to keep the geese and Celine Dion.

I would agree with you if the seal hunters' intent was in the right place.

But Mr. Dressup...Wacth that all the time w/what was it, the Freindly Giant and that other show w/the werewolf dancing to Jumping Jack Flash. Can't remember the name. And for sure HNIC w/Grapes!

But then I'm not Canadian...but wish I could be :thumb:


Not the Jumpin' Jack Flash episode but "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" will have to suffice......"The Hilarious House of Freightenstein", feat. Vince Price. >>Right Click & Download >> (http://scott.hipfans.com/CAN/HHOF.wmv)

Grew up on that stuff (still hunting for Barbapapa vids, and the show with the hampster in the remote control boat.....) :thumb:

A few things maybe not mentioned (or maybe....a few beers tonight!)

Alexander Keiths

The Loonie

SCTV!!!!!

Hockey Night in Canada Theme Song [1980's version!] >>download>> (http://scott.hipfans.com/CAN/HNIC1980s.mp3)

and a personal favourite.....

The National Film Board of Canada's "The Log Driver's Waltz". >>download>> (http://scott.hipfans.com/CAN/NFB_LogDriver.mp3) -- I'm extremely upset, as I have the video for the song, but my archive disc isn't co-operating. Here's the audio until further notice :wink:

Think that's about it for now......time for a few more Keiths's :thumb:
