Re: Friday Funny



In point of fact, eh, that's what makes us like Canjuns, eh?  We spell like
the Brits but pronounce like the Yanks, eh?  So like that's why we can have
federal parties dedicated to separatism, eh? 'Cause we spell syllables we
don't pronounce, eh?  The one exception is like our "zed" versus your
"zee", eh?  So it's like a good thing that the "zed" in archivist is
silent, eh, or we'd have to disagree with all our 'Merican friends....
