6. You don't care about the fuss with Cuba. It's a cheap place to go on your vacation with good cigars & no Americans.

Don't like americans????

Michael J. Fox is canadian.........Is Mel Gibson? I can't figure out if he is from america, canada or elsewhere.

[Tim and Julie B]

Mel Gibson is Australian! I love that no.6. nothing against Americans it is just funny but I am sure Stretch will comment! You have to admit though Cuba poses no threat ( or else I am sure it would have been invaded by now) and they have kick A** cigars. I heard it is a great vacation spot as well. It is fine if your not allowed to go there not because I do not like Americans but at least that way it is not crowded!

[norman]

I love it when people can't decipher between Canadian accents and European or other miscellaneous accents...(This isn't slandering Chris Steele, I just think it's funny/interesting...) Do we really sound all...foreign...? Worldly? Hmmm....I wish we were all debonaire, like high class English...but no....I think we can all agree that's there's nothing sexy or mysterious about
"Could you pass me my touque, Shania Twain cd and my mickey? I'm going fishing for a pike later! Have some poutine and pop ready for when I get home, eh?"

ACTUALLY Mel Gibson was born in America. His father was a jeopardy champion and moved his family to Australia so his children would not be drafted into the war. Mel Gibson started acting in Australia and later moved back to the United States. You can still hear his accent in some of his earlier movies like Lethal Weapon.

Apologies to any Americans offended by #6. This was a "JOKE" e-mail that I received. It was meant as harmless fun for a laugh only. Sorry if I didn't edit everything as I copied it here. Shrug into your sense of humour & read it again; with that in mind & most importantly :
"ENJOY IT!"

ROFL!!!!! That's the funniest thing I've read in a long time. I needed that.

[eyespy]

What is a mickey? I'm sure my Irish family uses that word very differently than Canadians, in Irish slang it's an "organ of male regeneration" to use my grandma's definition.

[Darlene]

LOL,eyespy,it's a bottle of alcohol,LOL!!!!!
