Saw this a while ago and loved it... it so sounds like my parents.

Dear Frek,

Today I got my pogey from the feds so I went and bought myself a 2-4 and a mickey of screech. Last time I had screech was when I was on The Rock. Bunch of hosers there I tell you, and I swear they are all offside. It was the summer of 03 and also visited The Peg, Hogtown and had my birthday in Cowtown. Personally I’m from Lotus Land. It’s a nice place, but I wouldn’t mind being east a bit to experience the Chinook one year.

Anyway, I continued shopping, and drove a couple of clicks to the nearest Tim’s. Got myself a double double then headed over to pick myself up some poutine for dinner. Still had some loonies and toonies left so I went and picked up some Homo milk, then headed home. I kicked off my runners, then flopped down on the chesterfield to watch the tories and the grits battle it out. Anyway, I’m just being a keener now so I’ll take off.

Love, you’re favourite puck bunny, Aurora.

Now that's CanCon. [Canadian Content, for those of you not fluent.] Brian's really full of it....

I do have a toque here somewhere (an authentic Bombardier Ski-doo one at that!) but can't for the life of me locate it. The fact that DC doesn't have winter probably has something to do with that.

As a consolation prize, however, I offer a photo of my skates:

The normal ones of us up here DO NOT touch poutine!
