If you live in Toronto (hi,
trawnapanda!), you can now get your household electronics waste recycled. The following commercial is kind of like a reverse of Crazy Eddie's ads in the New York area in the 1980's. BUT…I wish that London had a similar service.
Conjoined twins walk into a pub in Toronto and park themselves on a bar stool.
One of them says to the bartender, 'Don't mind us, we're joined at the hip. I'm John, he's Jim. Two Molson Canadian beers please.'
The bartender, feeling slightly awkward, tries to make polite conversation while pouring the beers. 'Been on holiday yet, lads?'
'Off to England next month,' says John. 'We go to England every year, hire a car. And drive for miles, don't we, Jim?' Jim agrees.
'Ah, England ' says the bartender. 'Wonderful country ... The history, the beer, the culture....'
'Nah, we don't like that British crap,' says John. 'Hamburgers & Molson's beer, that's us eh Jim?' Jim agrees.
And we can't stand the English, they're so arrogant and rude, not civil and polite like us Canadians.'
'So why keep going to England ?' asks the bartender.
'It's the only chance Jim gets to drive..

Nova Scotia
Sep. 12th, 2009 08:57 amThanks to my friend dancingintheholycircle for this video. My maternal grandmother was from Nova Scotia, from the town of Lunenburg. She was an Acadian, one of the French-speaking community which makes Nova Scotia so vibrant. I loved this video, even though I have never been there. There's no "Visit Nova Scotia" caption, no URL, but the beauty of the scenery tells me that I really need to go.
