Had a great time at the Strathcona Canada Day pancake breakfast this morning. Great to see so many different folks in red and waving the flag.

I do agree with that, though. Yet, one can argue that, when one is part of a nation that does good things, like CC mentioned, and one takes part in those things, or in the creation or defense or support of those things, one can reserve the right to be a little proud.

Thank-you - I had a great time. The entertainment was fantastic and the street hockey was fun, especially the game between RBC and some team in red without a corporate logo. They HATED each other and it was full of aggression and cheap shots. Sadly, some girl got a high stick to her eye and it looked pretty badly cut.

In a surreal world I was able to walk up and get a beer instantly (until they ran out and all there was left was emergency Red Stripe), but had to wait in line for half an hour for a coffee!

Saw Mike Myers there - I'm not worthy...

Only regret is when I wimped out and didn't take up the offer to play wheelchair basketball with the Canadian Women's Wheelchair Basketball Team.

Oh, and I also regret sitting on my Tim Hortons donuts on the train home.

I'm showing my Canadian Pride today via my bright red sunburn I picked up today. I'm pretty sure I match the red on the flag right now.

Also, the Airdrie Canada Day parade is pretty awesome. It was more then I expected it to be.

George Carlin was a Lenny Bruce ripoff. Overrated comedian.

Every comedian is a Lenny Bruce ripoff.
