Ah. You probably wouldn't like Saskatchewan then, either. It's flat and boring. And it has a football team.






:D

Same here. I think someone here started the rumor, centuries ago, that the earth is flat .

I read a very good article years back citing reasons why we should have a flat earth. No mucking about with "great circle" routes on maps. You wouldn't have to wait so long to see a ship on the horizon rather than just her masts, so you'd know when to get the cannon primed.

Of course, like the Discworld, then you'd have the oceans falling off the edges and would need turtles or elephants or something to hold it up in the sky.

Nonsense. Of course I'd like Saskatchewan. First of all, the word "Saskatchewan" is just fun to say. Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan. See? You can't say the same about the O word. Secondly Saskatchewan has Loonies and Toonies. They don't have that in the O word state either. Then there's beer. No comparison there at all. And how about hockey, eh? The Blue Jackets aren't a real hockey team at all.

That would have been Porter.

I don't think Saskatchewan has a pro hockey team*, though they produce superb juniors. Why don't we suggest the Blues move to Regina? Wasn't Regina angling to get one?

Loonies and toonies are fun, but heavy after a while. I just went to Las Vegas for a coaching weekend and it was very odd using paper bills for anything under $5. And extremely disconcerting to see people smoking inside a building.

You're right, though, Saskatchewan sounds like more fun than O***.


(*Not a big sports fan, so I could be wrong.)

Bardskye!!! :e2arms: Welcome back!

And Haggis lies like a rug. He loves Ohio. Can't get enough of Ohio. Dreams of spending the rest of his life in Ohio. His best friends are Ohioans.

And I suppose you're going to tell me Haggis writes kids' picture books?

I haven't really been away. I check on your shenanigans at least every few days, just to see what evil things are going on in here. I just don't often come out of my corner.

But, you know, I actually did write one kindasorta Middle grade kid's short story. Couldn't sell it anywhere, of course. It's still one of my favorites, though.

You'd think so, but so far I haven't been offered a job where I can show my stuff, so to speak.

So long as it's "stuff" and not "snuff". Be careful of those movie contracts.
