Title: All Canadians should go rook
Post by: Ripsnort on October 23, 2002, 12:13:23 PM: It would make the reset that much more enjoyable for Bish and Knights.

Post by: Ripsnort on October 23, 2002, 12:13:57 PM: Oh, the French could go Rook too.

Post by: Nash on October 23, 2002, 12:36:02 PM: If the Canadians went Rook, there wouldn't BE any resets against us.

Oh, but you can keep the French.

LOL...

(actually I shouldn't laugh given all the Canadian dollars I'm holding right now...sold a condo about a year ago. I just can't bring myself to take the exchange loss right now. I'm earning Canadian $ interest on the money too, so it's like a never ending circle effect. The wife just started work at a bank here though so I can get slightly better rates than I was able to before.)

And as a Canadain, I will never fly Rook or Bishop. as when I first signed onto AH, I was placed in a Knight tower waaaaay back in Beta one. I started as a Knight and will forever be a Knight. Sorry Rip, Im staying.

why be resistent to change? Canada is the only country in the world without loyalty, being unsure whether to be British, French, or American.

Not bloody likely! We're we're still waiting for you stubborn Yanks to become Canadian. The beer flows free and our national symbol is the beaver. Nuff said. You know you want it... you just won't admit it.

They're both f***ing near water!

Btw I'm a Canuck and I'm part of a Knight squad - we like to kill "RIP" online whenever we see him. Sorry for makin' him so mad at canucks but seein' him going down in flames is such fun!

And to all you other Canucks who posted here, Bob And Doug wanted me to say to y'all, "Good day eh!":D

No, I'm afraid they've learned their lesson. They've blocked off a chunk of Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House... so burning down the White House again isn't in the cards. We'll have to think of something else. I haven't got it fully worked out, but what I'm thinkin' falls along the lines of mass breeding Hangtime's cats and the renting of a fleet of Ultralights.

Post by: GScholz on October 24, 2002, 12:18:52 PM: Yeah come right over Canadians! I'd be honored to fly with you!

My grandpa served in "Little Norway" on the Toronto Island during WWII. Every time the Yanks and Rebels come to Norway they get their arses kicked, I bet it's the same in Canada seeing you got mostly the same terrain. Some US pilots even refuse to fly against us because it looks bad on their record. Talk about stat-potatos! :D

that's when I start in on the Canadian chicks that don't drink themselves to oblivion !

current squaddies exempt of course :)

Well, I live just below the border (in Bellingham) and at one of my two jobs I work for, you guessed it, Canadians! They're much like us Americans, eh? I get lots of beer around Xmas time, mostly LaBatt's. Great beer.
