Americans' ideas on Canada. The movie "Canadian Bacon" (last movie of the great John Candy) put all the stereotypes together and so obviously so (to me at least). The best thing was watching it with an american friend of mine and how she didn't get all the stereotypes.;P It was a good movie that poked fun of both Canadians and Americans.

Actually, not that many countries are trying to build nukes. I can think of Chian, India and Pakistan. Do the French still have nuclear ambitions ?

I personally think it is more of "who wouldn't want to live here" than "everyone wants to be an American". (Well, I am sure there are assholes who think everyone wants to be an American, but I haven't met them.) In my mind there is a huge difference between the two statements. The former says that the USA is a nice place to live. The later has that nasty tone of "You country sucks, you know it, we know you know it, I bet you want to come to the USA". I can do without the later. There is so much grand stuff in the world. It would be VERY boring if everyone was American. Other cultures, religions, attitudes, etc make the world an interesting place. Europe has great history. Australia has... Well, New Zealand has beautiful landscape. Australia has... Egypt has some of the great wonders of the world. Australia has... Hmm... Australia has a lot of GOD DAMN POISONOUS CREATURES!!!! :) Tim Smith Descartes Systems Sciences, Inc.

We have lots of curry munchers here, too. The government provides it to old people, as it helps cover the flavor of the pet food they're forced to live on because they can't afford food and medication.

I don't eat any animal products that involve killing the animal to get them. I don't tell other people what to eat. If you want to eat dead animals :laugh: that's your choice ;-) For me: I could only in good conscience eat an animal if I had killed it myself. (but that's another rant) And I'm not sure if I could do that. Fortunately there is no dietary reason to eat meat. qomi "Don't compromise yourself. It's all you've got." - Janis Joplin

I forgot to add, that I was making supper at the time I read that post. So here I am thinking about my nice yummy supper, and then I read cow and delicious in the same sentence. For over half my life I haven't eaten animals. Although I do see others eating meat *shrug* I guess sometimes you forget what other people do. And then when you least expect it....you are reminded. I know people that eat meat that only eat certain meats. Or some people will eat animals but not insects. I'm not trying passing judgement, or trying to put my opinions on anyone. :-) Like I said, I was making my yummy supper; wasn't expecting to read that post; shared my reaction. :laugh: qomi "Don't compromise yourself.
