OFC member Dano from Toronto was in town last night and we took the opportunity to get together and share a few beers, a few stories, and strum a few guitars. :cool:

After trying to buy almost every guitar I own (with offers I would expect from JeffW), we finally called it a night. :(

Dano, it was great fun. You pick a mean guitar but when you come back, make your offers with American Dollars and not those lame Canadian ones! ;)

Not very nice to call our dollars lame, they are far more colourful and if you notice the USD is going to coloured bills too. Long live the Canadian dollar. .84.24 US and holding. ;-)

Only to flush out the system and sober up.

As ours is partially a 'petro-dollar' and heavily influenced by the export of raw and home processed goods, it is fairly stable in and of itself. (Actually considered under-valued) It's the instability of the American dollar that effects the fluctuation...

What's to worry? Aren't Canadians and Lilliputians the same thing?

S'nothin' 'member, the last time y'all invaded we took the party back to your place and burned the White House to the ground. Good party though!

Canadians didn't burn the Whitehouse, that fire was started by Dolly Madison smoking in bed, after a schtoopin' by James.

No more than a rumour, really.

Y'notice JeffWs typical American 'reinvention of history' a few pages back? It's the sort of wishful thinking that turns ignorant failures like Custer into national heroes.....And British Empire Loyalists like Benedict Arnold into traitors. Kind of explains a lot of their modern history too.
:rolleyes:

The only respect that I have for Canada is that it's the home of Terence & Phillip . . .
