That's what my future DIL did. Oh, and she states emphatically that she's never going back to Can.. Scotty Before I retired, my Engineering/Quality manager was a Canadian. From Guelph (I guess that qualifies). He's not going back either. Not only came to the U. S. but to the deep south. Talk aboot culture shock, eeh! Frank |

Everyone hates you eventually... except the client if you have done your job properly. I've been to almost every state in the union many moons ago..... once was plenty.... I can't see any reason for a return visit. Mind you the USA of circa 1980 was a much different place than it is now. ...and it's "Eh!".... Ya'll! One of these days you Yanks will learn how to pronounce the letter "R"... maybe. CM |

Dang.... you're right Vito! I noticed that annoying habit of Yanks to add the "R" after an "A" at the end of a word. So when Bobsprit says the word "Cuba"... it sounds like "Cubar".... CM |
