Yes, even though I'm Canadian, I am indeed an American, along with Mexicans, Guatemalans, Brazilians, Chileans, et al!

I always thought it was strange, the term "American".

Dr. Dread

An American, a Japanese and a Canadian were sitting naked in a sauna when suddenly there was a beeping sound. The American pressed his forearm, and the beep stopped. The others looked at him questioningly. "That was my pager he said. "I have a microchip under the skin of my arm."

A few minutes later a phone rang. The Japanese fellow lifted his palm to his ear. When he finished he explained "That was my mobile phone, I have a microchip in my hand."

The Canadian felt decidedly low-tech, but not to be outdone, he decided he had to do something just as impressive. He stepped out of the sauna and went to the toilet. He returned with a piece of toilet paper hanging from his butt. The others raised their eyebrows and stared at him. The Canadian finally said "Well, will you look at that! I'm getting a fax."

Ray, you must be proud to be an American, where at least you know you're free.

Its not a proper Canadian joke unless you manage to insert a reference to their arcane and incomprehensible accent.

Some would claim it isn't a proper Canadian joke without any reference to hockey.

ChamberNut

In Canada, we usually go with the 'Polish' for the butt end of those jokes, Dave.  ;D

"Somos", my dear, somos, no "estamos". Ser= to be; estar= to stay, to stand.
