Old World War II saying:

"When the British shoot, the Germans duck, when the Germans shoot, the British duck, when the Americans shoot, everybody ducks....."

and another fine bit of wisdom:

"I would rather have a German division in front of me than a French one behind me." — General George S. Patton

10 WAYS TO TELL IF A COMPUTER BELONGS TO A REDNECK

10. The monitor is up on blocks.

9. Outgoing faxes have tobacco stains on them.

8. The six front keys have rotted out.

7. The extra RAM ports have truck parts stored in them.

6. The numeric keypad only goes up to six.

5. The password is "Bubba"

4. There's a gun rack mounted on the CPU.

3. There's a Coke can sitting in the cup holder (CD-Rom Drive).

2. The keyboard is camouflaged.

And the number 1 way to tell a computer must belong to a redneck is that
the mouse is referred to as the "critter".

These are pretty good.

I will admit that my cell phone cover is camouflage.

Have you ever been to a CFL game? I went to one in Calgary a year ago last fall.. it was some kind of final... Calgary Stampeders and the Saskatchewan whatevers... I don't care for football, probably because I have never taken the time to learn it and understand it... but I enjoyed the experience... it was a pretty huge stadium... an experience.

Evertime I have had an opportunity something else comes up...like a paint drying seminar, banjo class, or turtle races.

Seriously, no offense, but...there is better football played on high school campuses in Texas and California...I'm NOT kidding!

I was a Monkeyman fan, but now with his dissing of CFL Football, as a big time fan of the BC Lions, I guess I just can't be his fan anymore.

The BC Lions office and training field were located just down the street from our church in Surrey. I missed very few home games this year. The NFL has a smaller field, yet it takes them four downs to move the football from one end to the other, whereas in the CFL they only need three downs to get the job done.
