I know what is on Skynews, Euronews, BBC and local networks in Europe every day.
it has nothing to do with war fucktard.
Good, name calling now... I can see this will continue to be a good discussion.

Come on, we both know there is no rock and roll in TX. As far as racial oppression goes, I noticed that there was a huge difference between the attitudes of southern blacks and those uppity city niggers of the north
I also had a truck driver in TX back me up in a bar when he let the cowboys that were trying to gang up on me know that Fontana had more cowboys than any one town in TX.

You're joking, right?Originally posted by MaskedMan
Do you even know what Canada Day is? Why we celebrate it?
I've found that a lot of Americans don't know. While nothing surprises me anymore, I must say... it's a bit disconcerting and does answer some other questions I've had about recent world affairs.Comment

If I would turn on the news right now it would be about the Euro2004Originally posted by Sly_RJ
Not to be a prick, but what's the latest HUGE news that has happened in NL that I should know about? And also, if you turned on the news right now, what US news would be showing?
The only all news thing we have here is CNN and they are probably talking about Iraq.
The latest big news we had that would be of interest of you has been about the JFS, we are buying them from you and there have been major discossions about that.
I agree that there is not a lot of dutch news you should know about, but there are things happening in other countries every day. Do you get on the news if lets say ETA blows something up?Comment

sorry you are offended and insecure about this issue. you might consider encouraging your government to play an active role on the world stage or at the very least make a small dent by placing some small "hey, i am important too" ads on your TGP'sComment

Yep, the invisable Canada that is silent and contributes nothing to this world. No need to even bother with it! I mean, what in the hell has Canada ever done for the U.S. or for the rest of the world.

Mind you it is not a complete list, there is a vast number of medical and technological discoveries made by Canadians but I thought I would list some of the most obvious ones.
So next time you are undoing your zipper to rub one out to a color photograph of a hot chick before you call your friend on the phone and ask them to go out on the snowmobile with you and then head back to your house to watch basketball on TV while you wash your clothes in the washing machine and you turn on the kitchen light so you can inject yourself with insulin, you can think to yourself. Today was brought to me courtesy of those Canadian neighbors of mine who I consider insignificant.Last edited by wyldblyss; 06-30-2004, 02:28 PM.Comment

I have TGPs? No sense in proving you know nothing really. Especially the Canada playing a role in world events part. Seriously, read the news sometime. You'll feel better for it.Originally posted by Pleasurepays

I have an idea about what Canada Day is about because I have Canadian friends and I DO ask these things, believe it or not. BUT in general and as a whole, I wouldn't have a clue..... simply because I don't watch my own news, much less the news of the rest of the world. And for me to say ANYONE can know the REAL goings on of other countries is like trying to say you know what goes on in MY house. It isn't possible. We have preconceived notions of what we THINK might be going on in other countries is kind of silly if you ask me.
Sure we'd all like to THINK we know what is going on in the world, but what WE see is what the news media allows us to see, we don't see the PEOPLE and how they conduct themselves, what they celebrate and what have you, we see what they WANT us to see and that's that. And MOST of what I see when I decide to give the news "another shot" is all the bad of other countries, as well as my own, who needs all of THAT doom and gloom?
The world isn't completely run by doom and gloom, but that's what they would have us believe. Oh hell yes, there is more now than I have ever seen....... but not as much as the media would have us believe.
So while I can't tell you EXACTLY what Holidays you celebrate all of the time, when I know one is there and I have friends there, I DO ask and I am fascinated to an extreme extint of how people celebrate, how they live, what they do, what their beliefs are and so on, I couldn't a bit more tell you most of that than you could honestly tell me that you know what goes on in MY home...... all you know is what I WANT you to know...... same as the media is with us....... you know what you are allowed to know or what someone else has written and you have read.Get in Touch on Telegram if you need a hardworker - (since 1999) - All About Me!Comment

I watched one of those on-the-street interview things, I think it was on Leno several years back, asking Americans what the 4th of July meant to them and why the US celebrates it. Most of the dozen or so passers-by asked had no clue about their own holiday, so there' s no way in hell most of them know anything about Canada day.
Except for those living along the Canadian border I'd say that most Americans neigther know nor care about the nature of Canada day or what it means.
For myself, since I love both countries for various reasons, I choose to celebrate both the 1st AND the 4th. Toss in the weekend and for me it becomes "North America Week".

Nah, didn't take most of it seriously, but a joke doesn't necessarily mean that they knew it either.Originally posted by baddog

That's easy. July 4 is the celebration of when Americans stopped paying taxes to London and started down the long road of paying even more taxes to Washington DC.Originally posted by CDSmith
