My wife and I were landed immigrants in Canada when we drove down to Amarillo one Christmas to visit my parents. The wife was born in Wisconsin, me in New Mexico.

We were about to leave a drugstore in Amarillo, when a passerby noticed us getting into a car with Ontario plates.

"Welcome to America," this Texas said in a friendly manner.

Not wanting to be churlish, I faked my best Canadian accent, and said, "Thank you very much."

Whatchagonnado?

You mean you replied:

"Thank you very much, 'ey."
