I’m overwhelmed. :)

I guess you never ever saw "The Whole Nine Yards", EH?

That was a joke son, no need to get your shorts in a bind over it.

Growing up in northern Pa i am aware that maple syrup is a aphrodisiac.

Canada has 36 million people and virtually no defense costs thanks to the USA

The US has 330 million people and shoulders the cost of defending half the world

Other than that, its easy to compare us

My mother was Canadian from PEI, once the largest immigrant group in Mass.

My Grandfathers observations: Starve in the Maritimes or prosper on the States.

Grandpa did you ever want to go back and visit?

Grandpa: F’em they know where I live.

My point always says that the entire nation of Canada is north of the following states Montana Michigan Maine New Hampshire Vermont Washington

Not true.

In fact, about 70% of the population of Canada lives below the northern border of Montana (49th Parallel).

A whopping 50% live below Montana's southernmost point (near the town of Lima), at 44° 40'.

The diffeeence is that, as an American, you can say “mohammedans do not belong here”, and the police cannot arrest you, unlike Can nah duh!

So was mine a joke. What is the Whole Nine Yards? A TV show?

[Daffynition]

A producer up here in town [NEK=Northern Vermont] has the license plate *SAPPY*. I just love it; makes me chuckle.

My kids growing up had nothing but real Maple Syrup on their pancakes, etc. On a road trip we stopped at a Denny’s for breakfast and when the kids were served their French toast, they poured on the syrup provided at the table........ *yucky* faces all around .....**Mom, what is this stuff? Yuck!**

I laughed. At home, we always said, *Pass the Brown Gold.*

Yep. We were/are spoiled. :p
