   Blaming Canada makes sense.

For the record, and I think I speak for Patrick as well-- he nor I were “blaming Canada”, but simply riffing on the song from the TV show South Park called “Blame Canada”. My statement was a line from the song.

I call that wiggling. We all know your feelings aboot our neighbor to the north, to say nothing of its hoser inhabitants, eh? And now you’re trying to claim that you’re not blaming them? For crying oot lood!

   My “I blame Bush” was a jab at Democrats and lefties, riffing on LFB’s humorous “I blame Galidor”.

I would rather see Nick Bluetooth in the Whitehouse, with or without his interchangeable arms...

You would, Dave! :-)

Okay, okay, I admit it-- I blame Canada. But not for the demise of TLG! I mostly blame them for my own great white northern accent! >:(

Why not? He’s a kick-ass kind of guy, eh? Might be too young, however...

We'll get our 2-4 of beer, some back bacon on the coleman, and enjoy the view

Ya lost me. As a service to the clueless such as I, consulted the Wik:

Canadian variant

In Canada, “toque” may also be a misspelling of tuque (IPA /tuk/), a knit woollen winter hat, originally worn by French-Canadians but now a staple of the Canadian winter wardrobe. This “fashion” originated when coureurs des bois kept their woollen nightcaps on for warmth during cold winter days. The Canadian Oxford Dictionary regards the use of toque for this hat to be assimilated from the etymologically unrelated French word tuque.

I’m back with ya:-)

Times that one, two four, by six, add a good cigar or three, and hey you just
described my upcoming weekend plans! Oops, wait you left out the fact that I
will "tippercanoe" in the middle of "leach lake", and fire off a case-load of
overpriced pyro so we can "ohhhh and awwwweee" and then bang off a few handfuls
of cheap ammo to scare the skeeters away.  Who needs deet when you have a
semi-auto???

Janey "I love the outdoors, pass me my zippo, Red Brick"

I'd type more, but I need to pre-roll a few, errr, I mean, check what planets
will be in view, yeah thats it!

I’ll have you know that I’ve seen every hour in first-run since the debut. If he hadn’t been offed this season, I would have voted for David Palmer in ‘08.

But the Superman connection is eluding me...

Hey, me too! I actually wrote in Jack Ryan in the ‘96 election:-)

It was my “kick-ass kind of guy” comment that prompted it.

You know-- little boys wearing pajamas and underwear with their hero Superman imprinted on them. The implication is that Superman’s hero is Jack Bauer:-)

Back to 24; I’ve seen them all, except not on TV but DVD. I guess I need to go and see the new Superman as well, but I have been so busy that I haven’t even been able to take time to go and see The DaVinci Code yet:-p
