    It's not fair that Canada gets a day all to it's own and none of the other states do. They should at least do a Texas day.

      No we are only including those that have talent and some redeeming qualities, the beib don't qualify!

      As I grow older I've found that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

        We're serving roast beaver at the office today, and taking turns at swinging a bat at a harp seal pinata! Sing along... "Oh, I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay. I sleep all night and I work all day. I put on women's clothing, and hang around in bars..."

        You forgot about a glass of Screech or rye whiskey! Oh, and poutine and maple syrup...

          Screech? Is that what they call that filtered sewage known here as Canadian Whiskey?

            That would probably hurt less than several other places...

                No... screech in a rum from Newfoundland and, as such, a distinctly Canadian product.

                  It's a rum. Popular in Newfoundland, and my house. (Although brewed in Jamaica)

                    Hell no. Screech is the Newfie version of the the Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster except it leaves you feeling like you've had your brains smashed in by maple cured bacon wrapped around a fresh Cod.

                        No, Screech is a dorky character from a bad 90's sitcom.

                            Sounds like when you get home from the office you should drink a Baby Seal: Club soda over a pile of coconut. A shot of Canadian Club Whiskey. A splash of grenadine for color. Served with a wooden stirring stick. :laugh:
