Okay this is kinda stupid of me, but I just recently found out that everyone here is from Canada. I’m from Seattle, Washington, US, and I was getting confused on some stuff people wrote. When I saw Calgary, I was thinking of Calvary in Pennsylvania. If I’ve written anything in dollars or gallons, etc, please convert them and excuse my mistakes.

I don’t know Canada very well but I do know that it has gotten harder to cross back ‘n forth. Back then, I could just drive right through. Now, I need to show passport and be grilled with questions.

No worries. We are pretty much all able to understand what a rough estimate of US dollars are and gallons.

I spent a summer in Medina/Bellevue a couple years ago, too much fun on Lake Washington. If you're a football fan do you recognize the last name Witsek????

Sorry, not familiar with the name. But I do follow college football and see who's winning or not. I go to the University of Washington in Seattle. We just lost 4 times in a row! We suck so bad this year.

I remember being down in the US and asking "Where the washroom is"

I got this dumb blank stare as both IQ points conferenced with the lone brain cell in that big dumb cows head as she retorted "Huh? I dun think we got nun of dose".

I'm like WTF, Surely somone of your cairrage must know where to drop anchor.

Apparantly they dont have washrooms in the states, only bathrooms, shitters and outhouses.

Washroom is far more correct anyways, seeing as how public WASHROOMS dont have BATHS in them.
