Hey, can you get me some duct tape? Maybe Steve's autograph? Swoon! For an old
guy, he is pretty darn hot!

Hmmmm I'm getting the feeling you didn't enjoy your trip out of Hog-Town, could
it be that all that fresh air and beautiful sights is causing some emotional
turmoil?
Well on behalf of all my neighbours that endured the city slicker invasion, I
must give my counter points.

Yes, rumble strips remind us to put down the spliff and hold onto our beer
because potentially you could be making a turn!

LOL, yes, yes they do, and since they do, instead of filling the landfill with
my "worthless junk" I have an extra 120 bucks to spend on Lego! Yay to ppl with
more money than brains!!

Good? Good city drivers? Apparently that means, somewhere after passing their
exam, they promptly forget the rules of the road. Such as neglecting to leave 3
car lengths between them and the driver ahead of them, not using a directional
signal to alert those around you that you are about to change lanes. Apparently
some ppl are way more important than others, talking on a cell is not
distracting to drivers, and horn honking and finger gesturing is an appropriate
way to say, "excuse me sir, I believe you might have just cut me off".

Okay, I will give you that one but considering the fact that our small towns
double in population, I say "we" (us country folk, as you put it) still get the
raw end of the deal. But you know, we do get the last laugh. I guess that
makes us even.

Wow chili dog issues??? Who knew. That must have been a rough weekend.

~YOU~ couldn't get a discount? You must be slipping!

Nothing like the May two-four in the country but sadly, with the way the GTA
takes over, soon even Bruce County will lose its mighty pine trees and be paved
over! Runs to hug a tree before it's too late.
