January 27, 2006Blame Canada
A chance to post about three of my favorite obsessions all at once. Climate change is making historically unaccessible regions of the arctic available. So Russia, Canada and the USA are fighting over who owns it. Ignoring the fishing rights and lovely sunsets, anyone want to take a stab at why three countries would fight over a desolate piece of ocean on the top of the world? Especially since its inaccessible most of the year. My vote is oil! No doubt about it folks, it's time to invade Canada! Comments
Times have changed Never let it be said that your not melodic. Posted by: Bob J Young at January 27, 2006 06:08 PMHey, I'm all for supporting an invasion of Canada. Like Homer said, it's "America 2." Besides, we're due for some more states. Except Quebec. Let them form their own country or something. Next... we can take Greenland from Denmark! But to the subject at hand, Harper is merely trying to prove he's not Bush's puppet, while at the same time, trying to lay claim to what could be a lucrative passage if the ice does melt. He probably has some legitmate grief about US submarines passing through, but nothing will come of it, save perhaps a private apology followed by a promise to not (get caught) doing it again.

According to American submariners its a real possibilty. Posted by: George at January 27, 2006 10:51 PMOh my God! Bob killed Kenny! You bastard! ;-) Posted by: Blue Jean at January 28, 2006 01:23 AMI can carry a tune in a bucket, Bob. Just don't forget the bucket. No, Jean, I'm Sparta...um, I mean, I killed Kenny. I've already filed my ice mining claims on Greenland. I have this FEMA contact... Posted by: Tully at January 28, 2006 12:36 PMFema Contract!!! Tully killed Kenny? Why am I not surprised? As Billy Crystal would say, I am so not Spartacus. Posted by: Blue Jean at January 29, 2006 03:06 PMOf course I killed Kenny. Hasn't everyone? ;-) Posted by: Tully at January 29, 2006 04:34 PMI haven't. At least not yet. Must pencil that in for next week....;-) Posted by: Blue Jean at January 29, 2006 08:14 PMa Posted by: Bob J Young at February 4, 2006 03:24 PM |
