Jamo, aren't you missing a "
" or two at the end of that statement?
We may not be able to pick grapes (I would rather just drink the fermented juice) but we do produce some of the best hockey players in the world. You happen to have a very good hockey team in So Cal that is stocked with Canadian players and the best one comes from Quebec but please don't ask me to spell his name.
Andrew, You stated earlier that 22 Canadians have died in Afganistan. Yesterday seven soldiers lost their lives there when their helicopter was downed, 5 were Americans, 1 was a Brit, and 1 was a Canadian. He was the 56th Canadian to lose his life in Afganistan, not the 23rd.
To all, we can bicker all we want here but we must all respect the efforts our brave soldiers are making so that we can have a better life here. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of the troops (American, Canadian, British, and others) and their families, especially to those that have made the ultimate sacrifice.
