Maybe it'* because he mistook what you have near your pocket for a gun. I've also been told that you look a bit like the gangsta type.

He was probably giving you a tongue lashing for not offering the card in both official languages...

Welcome to Ontario Paul...

Ya, I'm in North Bay. It'* on Lake Nippissing. Real nice town.

No one likes my name in Ontario. :( That'* OK though. I'm having fun with it.

Had a waitress almost throw my meal at me when she found out today.

I'll be in Sault Ste. Marie on Monday for a couple of days. More play on my name coming up.

Discovered a few garages hidden behind some of the neighbourhood homes today that had some real jewels in them.

An Austin Healey in one with 10 BMW bikes that went back to the 50'*. Another with a 56 Chrysler and a Nash. All in mint shape.

........I don't fart dust. It'* more like Beer, peanuts and pickled eggs.
