An open letter to Canada

From the Crack Young Staff at the Hatemongers Quarterly.

Warning: features intense mockery of Celine Dion, Rick Moranis, and Loverboy.

And DO NOT read it while drinking Barq's Root Beer, unless you want to spring for a new screen.

Anybody know where I can get a new screen, fast?

DISCUSS AMONGST YOURSELVES WHILE I'M GONE: Why is Barq's Root Beer so darn tasty?

Yips! from Robbo: I'm going to issue a partial dissent on this one. Rick Moranis? The Keymaster who nails Sigourney Weaver? One half of the Mackenzie Brothers? Take off, eh.

I think it's the particular proportions in the blend of sodium benzoate and acacia, meself...

Loverboy could be considered an Act of War. But then they did send us John Candy.

Because the "root" they use is the Root of All Evil. And everyone knows that evil is delicious. Man, now you've got me craving a Barqs. So much for productivity this morning.

I'm not so big a fan of Barqs. My favorite root beer is Henry Weinhard's. It's very rich, and very smooth. It also makes excellent floats.

A&W pwns all! At least of the major brands (ie, ones that you can get in many containers). IBC and Henry Weinhard's are better, but hella expensive. The only root beers worse than Barqs are the generic store brands, which ALL suck. Doesn't matter which store, it sucks HARD.

IBC rulez, Barq's droolez. And, some of the Whataburgers in the area have IBC as part of their regular drinks. Whee!
