All those Idaho potatoes will make great lefse and klub. They will need some re-educating about proper British spelling and the value of universal medical care, but I welcome my midwestern American friends to Canada.Phil Lhttp://philloseth.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3520413.post-44044852285089300212008-12-30T08:13:08.000-07:002008-12-30T08:13:08.000-07:00At least the Gaithers are with us, and their recor...At least the Gaithers are with us, and their recording studios, safely tucked in there in Indiana.<br><br>And I'll still be able to watch the Detroit station (WDIV) of NBC that I grew up with -- you know the one that had Mort Crim & Carman Harlan.

We told her it wasn't that bad. Dave got his appendix out in a jiffy and it only cost us $20 in parking fees. Our GP and his surgeon even checked in with him on a daily basis. And he got to share a room with three women, one of whom was the mayor. Can it get any better?Bethhttp://bananapeelstudio.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
