Just For Laughs preview

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on July 20th, 2005

We crossed the USA/Canada border today at 1 PM. Got to the Royal Vic at about 2:17, encountering no traffic whatsoever. By 2:50 PM, the male half of the staff had already returned from the Delta, having procured Media laminates and place a stack of Poker Tournament announcements on the table in the Delta lobby. (Spotted Alonzo Bodden and Greg Proops while on the way to the lobby.)

Large post to follow. In the meantime, you can occupy your time by practicing The Canadian Hymne National, “O Canada!”

O Canada! Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
From far and wide, O Canada,
We stand on guard for thee.
God Keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

If you really wanna spice it up, try reading the lyrics like somebody at one of those poetry slams. Or, if you’re from Philly, sing it as “Yo Canada!” (The male half of the staff has the most annoying problem: Every time he tries to recall the melody of O Canada, his brain segues into “Eres Tu” the horrible song that reached #9 on the charts in 1974, sung by Mocedades. Of course, now that we’ve mentioned this, the same curse will befall a significant number of you as well. Thank us later.)
