[u4ic]

6. B.

if you check out my profile, you'll see where I'm from. :hi:

I'm a lousy Canuck anyway...I don't like beer, hockey, maple syrup or poutine! :shrug: :D

[jeff30997]

7. Hehehe.

Well,I like beer,don't care about hockey and maple syrup, but being

a Quebecer(Do I spell it right ?),I love poutine BUT I hate Putin !:)

[u4ic]

8. Hold the cheese curds

and I like it, too! :D

Gotta agree with you about Putin. What about our former esteemed Prime Minister, Poutine? ;)

10. Hey,you're cool u4ic !

Why do you say Deadmonton in your profile ?

I've never been there but I thought it was

a big city with all the same wonderfull crap

as Montreal(Mc Donalds,Wallmart ect...).

[u4ic]

13. Oh, yes, it's fairly large

750,000 or so in the city proper, and a million in the environs.

I'm just getting bored with it but can't move for the time being. You're right, it does have the McPukes and the Wal Marts...in fact, that's all this city seems to do, is shop. Buy, buy, buy. :eyes:

It ain't no Montreal, though. I wish it were...

Thanks, jeff! I'm actually pretty warm right now...but I was cool as a couple of weeks ago when it hit -46...:scared:


:hi:

2. Cabrito

3. It's really hard to pick a favorite!

ps...I know it's not an apple!

:hi:

9. Chicago = Italian Beef

:9

[jgraz]

11. Big Al's and Mr Beef!!!!

God I miss Chicago..

[Ron Green]

12. Cincinnati for Chili? What the hell is that?

They probably put beans and tomatoes in it.

[blondeatlast]

15. I was thinking the same thing. Where the hell did they get that?

I have spent most of my life in Arizona--I'd die before I ate that kind of chili!

[jgraz]

16. Cinci's got their own style of chili...they serve it over spaghetti

I shit you not. Ground beef, tomato sauce, beans only if you ask for them... all poured over a steaming plate of pasta. Very weird, but pretty damn tasty.

[blondeatlast]

14. Chili=Cincinnati? Hell no! and nothing, NOTHING from the Southwest?!

My coworkers homemade tamales and my neighbor's tortillas, right from her tortilleria, thank you very much!

:eyes:

[jgraz]

17. Yeah, that sucked. No mexican-influenced cuisine at all

Cinci's chili does NOT count as mexican. But no TexMex, no Santa Fe, no mexicali, nothin! My liberal radar smells a rat here.
