I'm American. I moved to Canada. I'm going to become a Canadian citizen, and I'm not moving back to the States.
Maybe it would help if we thought of it in terms of choosing a GLO? We all found something in our respective organizations that spoke to us, and now we're proud to call them home. I think of my move to Canada pretty much in the same terms. *shrug*
Oh, and I'm not a puppeteer, nor do I work at McDonalds'.

Not jingoistic at all. Those people are exercising their right to leave and that's perfectly fine with me. Although the puppet lady did remind me a little of Gregory Hines' character in a movie called "White Nights". He was an American who wanted to make a *big statement* about all that was wrong with the US so he emigrated to the Soviet Union but wanted to return to the States once all the publicity wore off. **Please don't take that statement personally; it's in no way directed at you! It's one thing to just up and do your thing but you can do that without notifying the Associated Press!
Off subject: SisterMadly, I always thought you were in Alaska for some reason. Is there another APhi who posts here who lives in Alaska?
