  1. And besides, you don't need to learn this fact in school, you can pick it up from the mass amounts of American media which Canadians consume.
  2. The very basic stuff is, I remember also learning about China, Africa, Europe and Russia and it's neighbours.
  3. I like your username, very creative!
  4. The District of Columbia does not have the distinction of being a state as it lacks that level of government. The reasoning behind which is that if any state were to contain the nation's capital that state would be favoured in legislature. Oh yeah, and there are 50 states, I talked to eleven Canadians who all said 52. This is something that North Americans should know by the time they are ten. There's fifty stars on the flag representing the current fifty states. There are thirteen stripes which represent the thirteen founding colonies. I was in absolute shock that they didn't know this incredibly basic fact about our nearest and most important neighbour. (I know I'm going to hear it about that statement!) And the "talking to Amercians" sketch was all I could think of. I had absolutely no clue that Canadians were just as ignorant as Americans. I really thought our education system was significantly better and would produce people that would know this bit of trivia. And I won the thousand dollars, but it's not bloody likely that I'll ever see it.
  5. I think plain popsicle means anything that has no chunks of fruit or anything in it and is not cream based. So your grape popsicles would be okay, but not a creamsicle or a fudgesicle or those del monte strawberry pops. Grape, orange, red (yes, red's a goddamn flavour) etc. are all okay.
  6. One reply but ten views? WTF? Don't be pussies!
  7. So I had a bet going tonight for $1000. How many states are in the USA? I talked to ten different Canadians and they all gave me the same answer (which was contrary to my own). So Jambands.ca memebers, how many do you think there are? P.S. No looking it up before you answer (I'm looking at you BradM!)
  8. Heightened sense of hearing?
  9. I've got some grapes you can eat............I'm not even sure exactly what that means so don't ask.
  10. I can't believe someone cracked the code. Looks like you are the first to win the contest! I'll try and think what you win. How 'bout a swift kick in the ass?
  11. P.S. Just to let the potential sugar daddies know, I'm cute and I cook.
  12. Who's got my heady sugar daddy that lives somewhere warm?
  13. I love the headline I saw: Mary Anne caught with Mary Jane (is it just me or is there a little double entendre there?)
  14. Phishtaper and Jaimoe: HIPPIE FIGHT! Why don't you two knock each other over with big bricks of organic tofu? It's shit like this that makes the entire hippie subculture look completely ridiculous and thus people of the mainstream tend to discredit all parts of it, even those parts with validity. Please, stop embarassing (I have no idea how to spell that) yourselves and your compatriots. Max Webster: I like your attitude!
  15. This is so saddening I can't even think of a way to make this thread dirty and I won't out of respect for one amazing musician and incredibly cool guy. I'll miss you Mr. Healey!
  16. Ask Neugroove, he knows everything about percussion.
  17. hehe, you lost your lost forum. hehehe
  18. No honey, you gotta ask "What do you think it's worth?" Then you tell them the asking price (aka pull a number out of your ass) and dicker from there. (I swear to god I didn't try to make this sound dirty, it just came out!....Fuck, I did it again!)

    The fuckface still owes about a grand on the system!
  20. He's got it coming again for bailing on me.
