I suppose I'd better do the 9/11 thing. No disrespect to anyone who was affected badly by it, but better people than I can mark the occasion.
Condoleeza Rice marked the occasion by coming to Halifax, Nova Scotia to thank us all for putting up all the stranded air travellers when their planes were diverted from US airspace after the Twin Towers attack.
I'm suprised she kept a straight face while she was doing it.
Several times over the last few days, I have button-holed a Canadian and said the following:
So the Yanks diverted all the flights north to Canada after the Twin Tower attacks, eh?
Yes, they would say, all proud that they did their bit to save the free world from Terrorism again.
I would crack up laughing then, pointing and saying succccckkkkkkkkkkkerrrsss!
Time would pass.
The small sound of a Canadian penny dropping would be heard somewhere in their head.
Facial muscles would contort slowly as the mood changed from calm pride to wounded pride.
Eventually.... Those cocksuckers!!!!
Everytime... I swear it happened everytime I did it.
Granted, I mostly did it to people who don't really care about politics, but this is 9/11 we are talking about.
Seriously, there are 33 million LOVELY people up here in Canuckstan, who would mostly do anything for their neighbours, be they Yanks or whoever, who are being buttfucked by the Americans, with the assistance of their own government of course, and only 57 of them turned up to tell that 'disgrace to her gender' neo-cow to go home today.
And I wasn't one of them.
I must be growing up finally.
Anyways, the day that will never be the same again has come and gone again.

I didn't go either. Afraid I'd be on some sort of 'watch list'. Gotta keep a low profile you know.
