Damn Canucks almost didn't let me in in 2000, I think because my buddies and I got drunk on the plane. I was pretty offended and acted like a general asshole about the whole ordeal, which I regret, but my feelings were seriously wounded. We got off the plane ready to hug and greet our brothers the Canadians, reportedly a happy, friendly bunch, and were instead interrogated for a couple of hours, subjects ranging from how we'd managed to afford plane tickets and to where we shopped for biscuits. They examined every object in my wallet, business cards, cash, receipts, a stray nickel -- and did it wearing gloves. When the thugs went to don the gloves, one of our party, in an area across from me (area = torture chamber), declared loudly he was going back to America, immediately, and no man could stop him, so certain was he that the gloves meant a cavity exam. Anyway, we finally made it in, and I had formed a hangover in the meantime. I stomped out and glared at every one of the inspectors as we filed past, giving them real hell. They looked back at me, apologetically. I was carrying a bag the proudly said "USA" on the side (that'll make you popular!) and I learned when we got outside that a pair of underwear were hanging out the zipper. How the hell did they keep a straight face? Needless to say, I'm too embarrassed to go back to Vancouver, at least via jet.

I wouldn't know, I have tried to get into Canada twice (once in 1998 and once on my birthday NYE 2005). Both times they rejected me, the last time they actually spit on me.. guess that just makes you guys like Canada more eh? damn ham/bacon confusin', too much hockey playin', watery beer drinkin', hoarding all the legal hookers an weed-smokin', coming down here for the important surgery havin' b@$tards. You guys have had two good comedy sets: SCTV and the Kids in the Hall, its been the requisit 20 years, time for another jewel. After they "make it" we will be glad to read over their application for american citizenship =P -JP "Just get the hell out of Canada eh?" -Canadian border chick, speaking unkindly to JP on his birthday (verbatim) You guys are SOOO misrepresented in the american media _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
