Re: OT - Mindless Rant
OK, I live in Washington (state not DC thank god). Everyone I know calls it by name. Not soda, not pop, but Coke or Pepsi or 7up ect... We have Dr Pepper and Mr Pib. So why not call it what it is. This is true of both the eastern and western side of the state.
Spokane Washington is 1 degree north of Toronto (or is that 2), I think it's 1. Lived in Memphis for a while and don't remember what it was called there. Must have been a mis-spent youth, memory loss and all that. Anyway you would be surprised how many people there thought Oregon was on the Canadian border so I guess that makes Washington part of the 'Great White North'.
Just to get things really wound up I want to ask a question just for my northern friends in thier igloos, "If americans eat canadian bacon, what do canadians eat?" And yes I do have friends in Canada, my daughter is spending the summer in Toronto.
