The Rain In Spain...

Move over Eliza Dolittle, seems the Mishugana Michiganites have usurped your slaughter of the English language...in fact good 'ol Uncle Sam's been teaching his kiddies a few things o'er the past 230 years - but apparently English ain't one o' dem...did you know that in America, its not a "box" but rather a "baaaax" and that one doesn't eat an "apple" but rather an "aaaayaaple" - and so while they all think that us Canucks are "ooot n' abooot on the roooooooof" - I was merely cringing as every red-blooded American greeted me this weekend with their nasal-infested lambasting of the English language.

On a more interesting side note - this weekend, I covered a lot of ground - had a fun and crazy (though mildly inebriating) weekend. Friday night was fun one - a good birthday bash for Ms. Jodi - mazel tov again on that one babe - Saturday very early in the morning, begot the drive to the USA!USA!USA!... and lemme tell ya, the Toyota Camry - wicked mileage - one tank o' regular 87 octane - 760.5km - and there was probably another 40 or 50kms left in 'er real easy...but who wants to find out on the 401 out near Bumblefudge, ON??

Now, I gotta say, and in fact I was saying this earlier to some of my family - the ladies in Michigan....WOW... now, I'm happily in love n' like n' all that jazz (really I am, honest babe, don't be mad...) I'm just saying that for a couple of you, my mates, my brothers-in-arms-and-blogs-alike, you guys woulda been foaming at the mouth, drooling like the dogs some of you can be...and I wish I could corroborate this evidence, however like a tool (and what makes it worse is that it isn't the first time - see: Ellie and the Argonauts) I FORGOT THE DAMN MEMORY CARD TO THE CAMERA... oh ya, and the wedding was nice n' all...but man did they overpay and get so little in return...oh and while I'm on this...can someone please confirm or deny - $15,000 for a wedding band????? Are you kidding???!!!!! For another couple a bucks, you can get the Rolling Stones for an hour!!

OK so um let's see this is a long one: NYC - allow me to sum up with just a few words if you will...details to follow potentially - SNOW, MORE SNOW, STRAWBERRY FIELDS, LEAFS v. RANGERS, BILLY JOEL, SPLINTERS OF WOOD, TRUMP DUMP, INXS - THE NEW VERSION, ALCOHOLISM, WALKING, MORE WALKING, GOD MY FEET ARE KILLING ME FROM ALL THE WALKING, KNOCK-OFF HANDBAGS, SKETCHY ALLEYWAY SHOPPING, ROLEX-SHMOLEX, DID I MENTION SNOW? PULL-OUT SOFA, CRAZY CAT, ALLERGIC REACTION, LACTARD, FINESSE MITCHELL, MILLION-DOLLAR-MANSION, $700 PER MONTH FOR THIS?!?!?, PROP. PLANES, DELAY OF GAME, CRAP PLANES, BUFFALO, WHITE-OUT DRIVING CONDITIONS...JODI & I HAD A GREAT TIME!

Done. Peace.

Ciao for now!

That last part sounds like the lyrics to "we didn't start the fire". is that coincidence or brilliance?

Why didn't you bring back some of those ladies for your friends?!

And P.S there must be more interesting NYC stories that you're not telling us about.
