I live in Canada. People think we walk around saying "eh" and then go home to our igloos and feed our pet beavers, after a long hard day of playing hockey. No one really cares about Canada either.

Al has a point, how do you know?

Did it hit anything, or just land in the grass?  Really, if that's all that happened, it really not earth shaking news...

Hey, earth shaking!  I made a funny!  (A little one anyway)

More rubbish that noone needs to know. I'm surprised that it WASN'T on the news.
