? about poo!

ah come on... you don't miss living in igloos and eating with your fingers?

how about driving everywhere on a snowmobile?

or the fact that all of our police officers are mounties on horses?

(giggling at the misconceptions i've run into with my american friends over the years)

You think that's bad. You should be mistaken for a Yankee in the South!! Sheesh. Maryland is below the Mason Dixon line folks, so technically we're a southern state. Of course everyone further north thinks we're southerners and everyone else thinks we're Yankees. Maryland the unloved, unclaimed state. :tears: ;)

What I always find hilarious is when folks here in Michigan make comments about Mike having to go find a decent wife "up north in Canada".

Look at a map....where we live in Northern Michigan, USA is actually geographically further north than where I was born and raised in Southern Ontario, Canada. I actually moved north to marry Mike! What in heck was I thinking!

My only experience in Canada has been in the Toronto area, and to be honest, I thought Toronto was almost exactly like Chicago, except it was cleaner. Oh, yeah, and they give you vinegar to put on your french fries.

LMAO on the vinegar with fries...first time I was in the southern US and asked for white vinegar for my fries the waitress looked at me oddly, then drawled out some thing about "okay but we wash stuff with that!"

Toronto the Good....how I miss thee! LOL (or as we natives prounounce it....Ter-ran-ah)

Now everyone just calls it the T Dot. Damn rappers and their slang words for everything. :no:

The REAL Mason/Dixon line is where the HOV lane begins on I-95. Everything above that is the north, below is the south. I moved to fairfax to go to GMU my freshman year of college, hated it, and fled back to richmond (i got to VCU now). Never realized I missed the south until I left!
