Not too sure but I think visitor's to Canada are required to end every sentence with the word eh...example...We are having a nice day eh? I am sure @NorthernRider will correct me if I am wrong eh? :laugh::laugh:
Just kidding Northern Rider!
Maybe while you are there can you see why their Canadian Bacon is round and why their Geese, which are capable of flying seem to walk across the street? Things I just gotta know....
I've seen pictures of round bacon, but never had it. No idea why we're taking the hit for it.
Geese are pests. They attack cars on a nearby traffic circle because they build their nests in the marshy area in the middle. Those are vicious little peckerheads, too.
I had a squadron of geese buzz over me so low i ducked under the windshield. My wife was pissed because it scared the hell out of her. A guy in a truck next to me his facial look of astonishment was priceless. Maybe it was because i was on my old VTX instead of my classic?
Found another helmet for Toymaker so maybe he can connect to the internet while he's up there. NorthernRider, stop looking for the groan button, we past that point several pages ago. ?

We definitely need to make sure Toymaker reads this when he gets back. Poor guy is probably hiding behind a tree with his helmet over his toque with geese chasing him trying to steal his bacon while he is searching for an internet connection because he only has $100 with a moose laughing at him. How's that for a summary? OK, NorthernRider since you broke your groan button here is a button for where we have taken this threat.
they are everywhere in NY state, there is one 1/4 mile from my work, my preferred choice for lunch when I dont bring something to eat (not doughnuts for lunch, they make great sandwiches).
When I was a kid in Buffalo, Freddies doughnuts on main street was THE place to get doughnuts. We went fishing in Port Colborne in the summer, and Tim Hortons showed just a bit north of the Peace Bridge in the early 60's.
There doughnuts were a bit different, but there is no such thing as bad doughnuts.
I just realized a few months ago that Tim Horton was a real person - not just a real person but a certified Hockey Legend in Canada, and except for his chain of doughnut shops, I had never heard of him.
Hows that for a cultural divide across the Niagara River!
I've seen them in upstate NY, Ohio, and Michigan. Tim Horton was a real hockey player, yes. Since 1964 (a VERY good year) it's been a staple, iconic Canadiana. That is until a few years ago when they sold out to Burger King. Now Timmy's is a wholly owned American corporation.
Funny though. I can think of maybe 4 Starbucks here in town (if there's one in the mall - I'm assuming there is). I bet there are 30 or more Timmies.
Tim Horton was an old school defenceman for the Toronto Maple Leafs. Not overly mobile but tough as nails. He died in a car crash before the franchise really took off. It was a pretty smart venture for a 'dumb defenceman'.
I did not think Tim Horton would still be alive, sorry to hear he died in an accident.
Did not know the TH invasion of the US was a product of burger king.
When we use to go fishing in Lake Erie inside the break wall at Port Colburne (the southern end of the Welland canal to Lake Ontario), on the way home we always stopped at an aluminum side of the road diner for burgers and fries and a bottle of Coke-a-cola. The burgers were excellent
and when I goto Burger King for a whopper, it reminds me of the food at that Canadian diner - big slice of tomato and onion, tasty...
maybe its because we got up before dawn to get on the lake by sunrise, we were always hungry by lunchtime on the drive home...
You guys keep talking about some place called Canada...which I assumed was just an imaginary part of a Bob and Doug McKenzie skit...you’re telling me it’s a real place??
24 Elsinore, please!
