Oh Canada!

Know what I like about living up on Lake Erie? I get 95.1, "Canada's Rock Station" in my car.

This morning I heard the weather forecast and was very disturbed, until I realized it was metric. Of course, once the weather was translated into "standard" for those of us who are too ignorant to actually LEARN the metric system, I realized that the weather in that part of Canada was going to be identical to the weather in Cleveland today. Isn't that a nice, globally minded thought? I felt sort of trendy.

In addition to disturbingly similar weather, the other day I heard a rock song about a guy who used to be a rebel but who has since grown up. He wakes up before noon because he has "things to do." I'm not sure it was a real song or some sort of novelty song but it depressed me a little. I don't read, listen to music or watch TV because I want to re-live the same crap I go through every day. As Jerry Seinfeld says "If I want a long, boring story with no point to it, I've got my life." Well said, Jerry.

In an effort to bring you something cuddly and cute, I will finish this post with a picture of Jerome (who is a girl) snuggling up Harold (who is orange.)

I am a quarter Canadian. Which brings to the old joke...

"Do you have any *Ethnicity* in you?"

"No/Yes"

"Want some/Want some more?"
