Reminds me of Labradors

Hmmm ... something the two of you want to share with the group?

Not sure where you are from. But there are still some items that you can't find in Canada

I'm not in the USA either. What were you surprised about?

I saw them at a local Root and Blues festival a few summers ago. Only 1,000 people in the audience and I was able to get right up to the front.

No. I looked again today, at three different places. Still no multi-grain. There's pastry flour, whole wheat flour, blended flour etc., but no multi-grain.

The Canada Day long weekend (beginning of July) coincided with the easing of a number of restrictions as we moved into Phase 3 of reopening. Kelowna is a small city of 250,000 in the interior in lake country. The Okanagan lake system stretches down through BC and into Washington State, remnants of what was a massive lake during the last Ice Age. From a single social gathering there emerged first right COVID cases, and then eventually 30 COVID cases. For people that don't know what contact tracing is, and why a systematically planned out and coordinated contract tracing strategy is important, consider this. From those 30 cases, there are now 1,000 people who are in 14 day self-isolation/quarantine. That's how the virus is contained from community spread.

why are they showering in their jock straps?

New bar regulations announced in BC today. Only servers can go to the bar for drinks, everyone else has to be served at their table. No dance floor. Enforcement of physical distancing with line-ups expected. Limits on number of people in bars. A private party in Kelowna that resulted in 30 COIVD cases, led to, through contract tracing, 1,000 people now in 14 day self-quarantine.

Oh, I thought we already couldn't see your face ... ?

So embarrassing when that happens in a meeting

Stop wasting corn for ethanol

The Unfortunate Origin of Circumcision ... as told by the gardener

um ... when I said "hang on" ... I just meant "wait"

I'm feeling that dog's pain ... "let go of my ears, I know what I'm doing"

Not reading the thread, just the title, one potential problem. Old guys living longer than their sexual interest in an escort that is no longer 28 years old.

Did you notice it's Leo DiC?

There's another joke with Roman numbers circulating. A Roman walks into a bar, holds up two fingers, to order five beer.

But it would be funny seeing bus loads of USA seniors crossing the Canadian border looking for it

One thing that I always notice in the USA are advertisements for prescription drugs. We don't have those in Canada. There're ads for over the counter stuff - allergy medications etc. - but for prescription drugs. None.

My grandparents had Pete Seeger's version of that song.

Leonard Cohen Closing Time. I love the line, "she's a hundred but she's wearing something tight"
