Re: Other stuff...

Mark,

You must also learn how to spell the name of our country properly!
It goes like this: C eh? N eh? D eh?

Edmonton, Alberta

I am a Frustrated Farmer who is a Frustrated Engineer who has a
Precision Sheetmetal and Precision Machine Shop in Fremont CA. 

Oh, and by the way I would like to let all of you know that I have
enrolled in a course at the local college that teaches "Canadian". I
thought I may pass on some of the phrases I have learned to help us all
better communicate with our "Northern Neighbors"

American: Wow! that's a really big Pumpkin you have there
Canadian: Wow! that's a really big Pumpkin you have there.. Eh?

A: Excuse me, but have you any Gibberellic Acid?
c: Excuse me, but have you any Gibberellic Acid.. Eh?

A: Pardon me sir, could you direct me to the nearest Brew Pub
C: Pardon me sir, could you direct me to the nearest Brew Pub.. Eh?

The Professor tells me that I am really picking up this second language
quickly. Hopefully by next year I will have both command of the
language  and a giant Pumpkin, Perhaps a trip to the Great Pumpkin Weigh
Off will be in order.....I hear B.C. is beautiful....
