Just a little eager to play, that's all.

Ok, new list. Reasons why shipments take longer to Canada. I'll get it started...

1. Sign on back of delivery truck: "This vehicle stops at all moose crossings."

2. All the money you spend on free quality health care for all had to come from somewhere. Bye bye postal service budget.

3. All the Yankee touristers keep stopping the driver and asking him to "Do that 'I am Canadian!' bit."

4. Keep your shirt on, 'eh? It'll get there soon enough you hoser.

LOL

Although there are flaws...

The Moose crossings should be Beaver, Deer, Grizzly, Fox, Wolf, Cougar, Wolverine, Elk crossing.

The Postal budget went out the window when they made very very unentertaining insane ads that they put out on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.

The probablity of a Yank asking that is unlikely as it is Skiing season and its more likely Japanese and European people asking it.

And the biggest hosers in the world are Americans. Especially Western Americans Everybody knows that.

*Drum roll*

And another thing: The Canadian postal service originates from two places: Ottawa and Regina/Winnipeg. Both places desolate and far far away from most of where Canadians live.

That also explains why our political system is going down the drain (and why the Canadian Alliance is the opposition.)

I am offended by that statement. I am most certainly not a hoser.

[TerranC]

It's a cryptic joke. Sorry if it offended you.

People up here who watched a comedy show called "Made In Canada" (If it is shown in the US, It might be called the "Industry" as my friend in Pheonix says) would get kinda get the joke.

Edit: Umm... What happened to my little Smiley?

[tesco samoa]

made in canada. was that the cbc comedy about the morning show ???

[TerranC]

Nah its that CBC comedy about a small independent TV producing company called Pyramid that always try to get to the next level with a Suck up Vice President, Incompetent President, A Scheming producer, and a know it all advisor or something.

Very funny, very ironic...
And the theme song should be recognizable to all Canadians in one sec.

TerranC,

Last time I checked, Ottawa was kind of in the middle of the most highly populated region of the country...but Winnipeg and Regina...what were they thinking?

[Cylapse]

*lol* Sh*t though, free healthcare is awesome...I slave for a sick insurance company and my benefits blow... How ironic.

On a side note, I hear in Canada its semi-legal to have bud, whats up with that? Might havta make a trip there if its true *LOL*

TerranC:
No worries. I wasn't really serious about that. I had assumed that you were making some obscure joke.

While I was looking for a good place to poke the point of the scissors, I found a hole in the shrinkwrap on one of the short edges. Opening it from there was easy.
