Though you caution us about the dull nature of the Canadians, it is with a candid honesty which is itself amusing. If I had paid attention to this, then I wouldn’t have giggled my way through some of this article.
As I didn’t read all 6,500 words, I will not, unfortunately, be buying myself a drink.
ps. did you know that I’ve just come back from the NYC - was there for a year.
Will, I’ll check with my ghost-writer, but I’m pretty sure that you were intended to ‘giggle your way through’ at least some of this article… Thanks for commenting, though, not least because your comment revealed a bug in the way I’d set up some of the back-end of the site, which I think I’ve fixed now. I would probably have noticed it sooner, but no one bothers to comment very often.
And no, I didn’t know that you were in New York: that sounds exciting. I’ll send you an email.
Perhaps the 18 feet of predictable snow each winter; which forces residents indoors for more than half the year, is responsible for creating their dull nature, as it stunts their opportunities for social interactions, not to mention thwarting their gene pool. It’s possible that you witnessed the only surviving human species that are all descended from the same two ancestors.
Unfortunately you’ve missed the best of Canada. I found Montreal to be a very sexy and exciting city and Quebec was like going back in time, when life was simple and people loved out loud which was anything but dull. It might be worth your while to take another look at Canada and make Quebec your destination. I’m free to travel in June.

Dear Richard,
Peace be with you.
I’m a friend of your brother, Thomas. If you find yourself in St. Louis on a Sat. or Sun., I’d gladly show you the sites. You can email me.
