Happy Canada's Day!

Drinking last night, firecrackers tonight ))

[Shiny Capstar]

Happy Canada day to all Canucks.

Part of my family have lived there for around 100 years or so, them being the second attempt at family colonisation there. The first was exiled there for doing something wrong back in Norway, (yes some of my family were so awfully posh, if only they had left the bloody money), he was given a lot of land but got himself shot. Daft fool.

I hope you all checked the beer fridge yesterday morning, and didn't simply assume that the tally remained a constant, in relation to sundays head count (I am quilty of this neglectful sin)

A Celine Dion hairstyle, Colonel?

There goes the sex drive for the week ... and the appetite as well.

Canada's Prayer

I’m dreaming of Canada tonight.
A country where mountains and hopes touch the sky
A country where an ocean of kindness fills all hearts
A country where ideas are a forest of wisdom
Oh God let me wake up in Canada!

I'm dreaming of Canada tonight.
A country where compassion is as tall as a douglas fir
A country where understanding is as deep as a great lake
A country where confidence grows like grain
Oh God let me wake up in Canada!

I’m dreaming of Canada tonight.
A country where happiness flows like the water of a river
A country where love is a breath of fresh air
A country where peace covers the land like snow
Oh God, please let me wake up in Canada, tonight...

Happy Canada Day to all Canadians, here and abroad!

[Aryajet]

Happy "Canada Day" to all Canadians and rest of the Free World.
