Yeah, that'll show 'em! You're one tough cookie, cookie, and I admire your resolve.<br><br>Sheesh! <br><br>

Seeing a pattern? <br><br>

Hey, I don't smoke pot! (did years ago) Canadians do. And yes, if I don't like the place, I will leave, the same way I left the states. <br><br>I do not belive in war or any type of fight. I belive that everything can be solved with diplomacy and not weapons. If I feel that the country I am in goes nutts, of course I will leave. I am not a patriot of any sorte, and I belive that media brain washed people will get what they deserve. <br>For now, Canada is my #1 choice, but if things change, I keep my options opened and will not support stupid behavior from a country no matter how much I like it. <br><br>___________________________________________<br>I'm just another Mac user at an 8 hour day Dilbert style cubicle job....<br>

No further questions, yeronner. <br><br>

It's a citizenship requirement.<br><br>(:->p) <br><br>Gadzooks, man! If you can indulge in silly-@ssed generalizations about your current chosen country this easily, no wonder your fellow Americans might be relieved to be rid of you! Nor do I know if it's so cool to be so anti-patriotic; methinks you're actually vehemently patriotic to your own perceived independent spirit.<br><br>Anyway, if the new gov pisses you off so much that you scoot off to seek nirvana elsewhere, perhaps it won't be such a bad thing. And one more point: countries don't act stupid - people do. So good luck finding that elusive cool place worthy of your patronage. Over and out.<br><br>max

As usual, pithy and on the mark, Max. Good post.<br><br>

Thanks, sross! Although I think that in retrospect I was off the mark a bit - entire countries can be every bit as stupid as individuals. History is lousy with stupid countries and their stupid deeds. As is true of the opposite, natch. Cheers!<br><br>max

I just got back from Thanksgiving in Dayton.<br><br>I just have to say I saw this (the President's visit) as the news was breaking. I had chills up my spine, tears in my eyes and pride in my heart. I was so proud of President Bush not acting the roll of Commander in Chief, but actually being the Commander in Chief and being with his troups on Thanksgiving. I was simply blown away.<br><br>It was, by far, the coolest thing I've ever seen a President do.<br><br><br><br>

No no matt.You got it all wrong. It's pure propaganda. The whole thing was scripted. Filmed in a cheesy contemporary ranch house in the hollywood hills, and broadcast 10 hours later.<br><br>

LOL! How SILLY of me to be snookered!<br><br>Thanks Steve for keeping me re-educated .. <br><br>
