I pretend to be Canadian...
Nothing wrong with that (although the Yanks are a bit dubious). See, there's this US/CAN bus that goes from somewhere in Brussels to NATO HQ where I (Denmark) go for 4 day meeting twice a year. I stay with the US/CAN contingent. So this bus leaves every morning... half empty... My mates (collegues) leave and I have to take a taxi behind it because I'm not US/CAN.
So the Yanks taught me to say "hey" all the time and pretend to be Canadian. (Have to admit that I don't know when to say "hey" I just put it in a few times here and there). Which worked for a while, but last time I was hoiked off the bus by the big fat Belgique bus driver... 3 times... with my tail between my legs. To get into taxi and follow.
So questions:
SHOULD I BE PROUD TO BE CANADIAN (even though the embassy might not agree I am)
WHEN DO I SAY "HEY"
SHOULD I GO TO HEAVEN FOR TRYING TO REDUCE CARBON EMISSIONS
SHOULD I GO TO HELL FOR TRYING TO GET SOMETHING FOR FREE AT YOUR TAXPAYERS EXPENSE.
Have a nice day! Hey!
