ha ha you can always tell a Canadian, but you can't tell him much!Dave, I haven't though of the McKenzie Bros. for a long time. They used to crack me up, probably because I went to college with quite a few Canadians who the brothers resembled!![]()
Fortunately for me, my wife had a lot of patience as I was still a bit of a wild child in those days.Wow! I can't imagine what a burden it would have been for any woman to marry me when I was that age. I didn't get married until I was 33, and sometimes think that may have been too soon.I've finally reached a point in life where I've been married for a longer time than I was single.
lol Jack that reminds me many years ago I was traveling through Montana on my 750 Norton. Went into a bar for a cold one, I was sitting at the table and some ole barfly lady came up to me and said I see you are from Canada. I said yes I am, she then said well I've seen a lot of Canadians and you're the first good looking one I've seen.You mean that isn't Dave?!I have a mate in Sheffield who used to look just like the guy on the left - well back in the 70's!

Kevin, it has been a very mild winter, there have been reports that a Grizzley or two have been spotted wandering around.Dave, I can almost smell that crisp clean air!![]()

Yipee party time! I'm looking forward to my first knife of the year.That's good to hear Daveit should be there soon!
They seem to have changed the name from southern to summer tanager. My Guide to American Wildlife is pretty old. I read in something that the sumtans range as far as southern WI, so I don't see why they couldn't get to southern MI. Anyway, my mystery bird seems to have left the premises.(I can't get Google to give me anything about a southern tanager!?!)
I lived in Sendai for a while, the main city of Miyagi prefecture in the northeast of the main island. The imperishability of the local miso was a bit of a local boast. Foreigners speculated that the perceived local fondness for salt might have explained the imperishability of the local miso.(The Miyagi miso post went entirely over my head though, in terms of meaning.I think I'm lacking in relevant historical context.)
