Um, no – it’s the front leg kicks you would want to look out for, as in many plant eaters. (Well, technically in birds and some marsupials it is the back legs, up front.) They can disable or even kill you, if you are unlucky.

It isn’t so fun to take cover behind pine shrubs on account of a horny elk that wants you off his chosen breeding ground – which for an inexperienced elk could be right over a community running tracks. (True story; but the local hunters took care of it, before it hurt anyone. Revenge was mine!

‘Nuther time, I was out cutting trees, so that time I could fend off a nervous elk mother with my chain saw while her calf passed a work area. Did you know you can actually hear the hackles move on agitated elks?

Along with your toque, don’t forget your parka and mukluks. After all you will be in the “Great White North” (although maybe not white for long! :-0

As far as high tech communications goes – when all else fails, we just use smoke signals.

(any Americans who are really dumb enough to fall for this deserve everything they get… I’m sure present company is excepted…)

ps.: neither does the Stanley Cup. It rest in the HHOF only to taunt Maple Leaf fans.

Methinks maybe if you knocked off that “y”?

I haven’t seen anyone use dialup here (in parts of Canada where I have lived) in over five years… nine years for me. We’re pretty much mostly broadband users now.

MAYBE in the rural areas, like farming communities. Even still, a lot of them are turning to satellite internet.

Ah well, not everyone can be on the up and up about Canada.. lol.

Phil, I think we’ll all understand if you’re too busy/tired, but those of us way up in Central/South Ontario that can’t get to all the super-awesome-fun-time skeptical events would GREATLY appreciate it.

I am heading to Toronto

Can you say “Hi” to my mum while you’re there? She’s visiting my sister for a few weeks.

Needs a little work.

Seriously, a BA meet up would be cool.

…I’d like that!

Still, it’s pretty warm these days, eh? Don’t think you’ll need a touque, but maybe you can get a maple leaf tattoo to celebrate your visit here so close to Canada Day, eh?
