Anyone know of a really great campground in Russia? I'd have a tough time getting Ten Forward there, but don't want to disappointed once I get there. Recommendations wanted.

As to what Canadians know about American college football, they drafted Kenny Ploen from Lost Nation Iowa a graduate of the University of Iowa in the 19th round (222). Kenny went on to play many years for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, retired and made his home in Winnipeg. Won several awards, Canadian football MVP of the 60s, had a street named for him, had his face on a postage stamp and is retired in Winnipeg at age 84. An outstanding citizen and human being and a native son of the great state of Iowa. Never arrested for drugs, shooting up a bar or beating women up. I’d say Canadians know plenty about decent human beings and that counts with me.

You're right. In Canada they play real football and drink real beer.

Well, let's see - imagine this: there was the Gary Larson cartoon starring a Squirrel driving a Zamboni machine whilst aiming at the poutine plate.

Russian President Boris Yeltsin tried to sell Siberia to the U.S. for $15 trillion, IIRC. George H.W. Bush said no.

Apparently Stella managed to get their beer into supermarkets, which wasn't the bonus they expected. The supermarkets used the beer as a loss leader so frat boys stocked up and were getting hammered on Stella. That wasn't the image Stella wanted, so they withdrew their product and went on a major campaign to present Stella as a premium beer, with their own glasses and pouring method. They had a beer pouring college.
Still an unremarkable beer, in my opinion.

Greenland is just a diversion, one really has to wonder what's going on while everyone is talking about Greenland, just saying. :-)

You are right, but the opening post was, "After US takes Greenland (what is Denmark going to do?) what other nearby country lies in it’s path?", so I voiced my opinion regarding that question.

And yes, I'd rather talk about beer, poutine, vodka, more beer, fiberglass trailers.. specifically ETI built trailers and on an on in this No Politics forum, but I get what you are saying but that's not what I was saying.
