Canadian Correspondent David Gold

Well, I'm finally coming back to the first world in two days, and it's about goddamned time. Canada has certainly been an interesting place, but I would have a hard time recommending prolonged exposure to it to all but the bravest of individuals. Recently, Canada has seen the onset of snow, which appears to be the national precipitate. I have seen accumulation of 6 or 7 inches in one night, although since it gets dark at 4:30 the night does get some bonus time to work with. Either way, Canadians don't appear to realize that snow is dangerous and is likely punishment for their sinful pacifist ways. I went to a bartending class and the instructor told us that Clamato juice was a Canadian invention. Apparently only a Canadian would dare mix clam broth and tomato juice (and I really have to ask, Why? Why would you do that and be proud of it?). I told her that America invented the light bulb, but she didn't seem interested.

Don't look at Quincy Jones. Quincy Jones ain't gonna help you.
