Subject: BS: The trouble with the US
I've finally got it figured out!

The answer to everything boils down to Ketchup!

Alow me to explain...

Sept 11 most US airplains are diverted to Gander Newfoundland in the morning,
By lunch all of those people are eating lunch at the homes of complete strangers. They were shown kindness, taken in, sheltered, and fed.

During hurricane Kat. when a lot of people needed help, food, and shelter even thier own fellow countrymen ignored them (cops ran away) and they were forsaken by the government that they elected to serve and protect them.
WHY?
Ketchup!

The answer was in my fridge.
Two weeks ago I went down to Buffalo NY to see the Bills Led by JP Lossman trounce the Green Bay Packers.
In the intrest of National security the Government of The United States of America have determined that it is very unsafe for us lowly Canadians to bring Food of any sort in to your wonderfull Country.
We had to buy our sausages and condiments at a very strange place called Wegmans(more on this later) for the tailgating parties. We could bring lots of beer and a BAR B Q with a big old Propane tank however.( I guess getting shitfaced and lighting flamable gas in a parking lot with 10000 vehicles full of gas is less of a threat than a Canadian Bratwurst)

At the tailgate I thought someting was strange with my saugage but bieng shitfaced I chauked it up to the forigen meat.
It wasnt till later that I figured this out.

Last week I was having a good old Maple Leaf Hot Dog when I reached into my fridge and pulled out the Ketchup that came back in my cooler.
Guess what... It tasted funny!

The Heinz ketchup made in Pittsburg PA tastes totally different than the Heinz ketchup made in leamington Ontario.

US Hienz ketchup is more bitter and less apealing!!!

That is why there is such a tremendous difference in the people from our countries!

If we were to wholy benifit from free trade we should let you have our far superior Ketchup!

I was going to talk about the Wegmans experience since it was big enough to fit the city I grew old in but I think that the subject warrants its own thread and since I do the two finger typing slower than some morepheine addicts I know and it took me 3 hours to type this little stroke of geinus I invite someone else to start the Wagmans thread!
