Canadian Pennies
I got a canadian penny the other day. Again. This is the most annoying thing, as they are useless. Why does Canada have to do this? They claim that they have their own currency because their an idependent nation, but this isn't really true.

Sheila: Times have changed, our kids are getting worse..
They won't obey their parents, they just want to fart and curse!
Should we blame the Government? Or Blame Society?
Or should we blame the images on TV?
All: No, Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
With all their beaty little eyes, their flapping heads so full of lies!
Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
We need to form a full assault, It's Canada's Fault!
Sharon: Don't blame me, for my son Stan..
He saw the darn cartoon, and now he's off to join the clan!
And my boy Eric once had my picture on his shelf..
But now when he sees me, he tells me to fuck myself!
All: Well? Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
It seems that everything's gone wrong since Canada came along..
Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
They're not even a real country anyway.
Mrs. McCormick: My son could've been a doctor or a lawyer, rich and true..
Instead he burned up like a piggy on a Barbecue.
Should we blame the matches? Should we blame the fire?
Or the Doctors who allowed him to expire?
All: Heck no, Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
With their hockey hullabaloo, and that bitch Anne Murray, too!
Blame Canada! Shame on Canada..
For, the smut we must stop.. the trash we must smash..
The laugher and fun.. must all be undone..
We must blame them.. and cause a fuss..
before somebody thinks of blaming us!

Well, as the movie South Park has proven, Canada is not a real country, yet they insist on annoying us with those stupid pennies. I've had enough!!!
Its time to put an end to this, and teach Canadians a lesson. Just like New England is part of America, so is Canada. Just like we had to take care of the South when they had silly ideas of being a seperate nation, its high time that we take care of Canada.
We need to invade Canada, and end this nonsense.
After we invade, most provinces will become states. Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia will become one state, because almost no one lives there. It shall be known as "North New England" because that's where it is. Quebec thinks that they're cute with French. Welcome to America. If you're going to speak one of the Romance languages, you'll speak Spanish, and like it. To teach them the new rules, the name of Quebec shall now be "North Puerto Rico." Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut will become part of Alaska. Nunavut will be allowed to open casinos.
No more canaidian pennies. Problem solved.

Ha. this made me laugh! I live 5 minutes from the Canadian border..so it pretty much feels like one country anyway (they've already "invaded" our shopping malls and businesses throughout town..). I don't mind the Canadian pennies one bit, I mind the horrible driving skills they display here. Horrible generalization I suppose..but it's true. I generalize Seattle drivers and Californian drivers as well, so no offense to Canada intended.

You probably have all the Vancouver drivers to deal with - and the majority of them are super horrible drivers - try driving with them all the time - but I won't get into that  .

I don't mind Canadian pennies since I can pass them on anyway. What irritates me are Canadian quarters because they don't work in vending machines! CoinStar won't take them either.
I also live quite near the border and get Canadian change often. I have a $20 Canadian bill in my purse, for sometime when I go to Canada again.

WOW
Russ, really had to think up this post?
What makes any coin or bill of the USA what it is supposed to be?
Well basically, it is because the Government says it is!
So, when it comes to the same size coins, say it is a penny, dime or nickle just what is the difference. Now Bills may make a big difference, different color of money!
There is no Gold Standard anymore in the USA or The Cross of Gold, Williams Jenning Bryant Speach for Silver.
Coinage of the Rhelm is what it is told to the multidues, that is what it suppose to mean!
Oh, We So Be The Multitudes!
