Feeder (the band) are pretty good. Here's something I really like, and it's somewhat tangentially related to the original topic.
We were once so close to heaven, St. Peter came out and gave us medals; declaring us "The nicest of the damned".
“Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'”
Wait...think I expand my resturant...Authentic Genuine American Mexican/Chinese Cruisine. Do I hire other US nationals or canadians..hhmmmm...Whats minumum wage up there?

Canada day is July 1st. Most of us take an extra long weekend and travel south to watch our southern brothers blow gak up real good.

Those damn maple syrup smoking socialists are apparently richer than us. The average Canadian has more money and is less likely to be unemployed. So, I guess we're like Mexico now.
Imma go hop the border before they start fortifying it.
Send in the girl scouts. We can make Canada into Greater Texas. Sorry, Montreal, you're on your own.

Don't say sorry, that's what we've been asking and bitching about for the last 50 years

It's like listening to that guy on those Ford truck commercials.
As for Canada, if I can't find a job in special education, I would be glad to be called (as Steven Colbert said it) a Snow Back.
I can sing the O Canada drunk.
do I get citizenship?
Can you fight on skates?

Speak for yourself, I'd rather have blizzards than Texas heat. can always put on more clothing, but there's only one thing you can do for 48.9C temperatures at >70% humidity-- go inside nad hope your air conditioning doesn't break.

Plus there's dog sledding. Nothing beats the epicness of riding a pack of half-wolves on a frozen river as the ice crumbles under your sled... Nothing!

How about a sled driven by 100 wiener dogs?

That would be epic indeed. Until the moment they met an actual husky/malamute-led sled. I think I already mentionned this here, but the last time I mushed and we came across a pocket sized dog and it's mistress, the pack decided it was lunchtime. Poor little bichon was in about 12 differents places at the same time after that...

Not if Frazzled is driving. Nothing says "this sled protected by Bofors" like hanging a Bofors heavy machine gun off of it.

Or "legged." Four hundred paws of epic doomness! Driving a sleigh with a Bofors armed extremely drunken Frazzled. Western Canada is mine!
