796.1Curious in Canada...KAOM25::RUSHTONUnscathed by inspired lunacyThu Aug 23 1990 15:3611
       <<Sunday, September 2nd    3:00pm til whenever
       <<Canadian American Club, Arlington St. Watertown
    
Being only a two hour drive from my home in Almonte to Watertown,
what would I miss if I didn't show up?  And who should I contact
if I did show up?

Do you have to be a Canadian-American, or an American-Canadian, or
just a Canadian, or just an American?

796.2Where is Watertown anyhow?TALLIS::DARCYThu Aug 23 1990 18:532
    If you can sing "Oh Canada" like Rene Rancourt does, they let
    you into the Canadian American Club.
796.3On what street is Watertown?KAOM25::RUSHTONUnscathed by inspired lunacyThu Aug 30 1990 10:5613
Watertown, NY is about 30 miles south of the Canada-USA border at
Gananoque, Ontario (Thousand Island Bridge) on I81.

Next question...where is Gananoque, Ontario?  About 120 Km (note the
change to metric when talking about things Canadian) south-west of
Ottawa (the capital of Canada).  Or putting it another way, Gananoque
is about 250 Km east of Toronto, or about 200 Km south-west of Oka.





Out with the maps...Watertown is at 42�N, 75�W
796.4The next time you cut tru my yard, Go Around !!HILL16::BURNSIs the whole world aGuinnessThu Aug 30 1990 11:5118

    	Do you know how CND came to be the abbreviation for Canada ??
    
    
    	Q: How do you spell Canada ??
    
    
    	Frenchman:   C eh?  N eh? D eh?
    
    
    
    
    
    
796.5Next time you're passing by...please doKAOM25::RUSHTONUnscathed by inspired lunacyFri Aug 31 1990 15:0211
		Huh?  CND?  I dun get it, me.







Never seen CND...CDN is the internationally accepted abbreviation that
may be used on a vehicle to identify the registered owner as being
Canuck.  I just use a beaver 8*)
796.6Where is Watertown, anyway!!!!SLSTRN::MANNINGTue Sep 04 1990 13:068
    The reference is, of course, to Watertown, Massachusetts, my adopted
    home for nigh on 40 years. Not as pleasant as Cork but one cannot have
    everything!!!! The Canadian_American Club is on Arlington Street, a
    good 15 min. walk from my house. The club is very popular among Irish
    organizations in the Boston area for holding periodic functions, e.g.,
    the Kerry Club holds its annual banquet there. Nice hall, good drinks,
    good people - the walls are decorated with the coats of arms of the
    Canadian provinces.
796.7Where's the Canadian Club?KAOM25::RUSHTONUnscathed by inspired lunacyWed Sep 05 1990 13:528
    <<The reference is, of course, to Watertown, Massachusetts...


		DAMN!!!!  No wonder I couldn't find the club.  Here I was
		driving all over Watertown, NEW YORK asking for the
		whereabouts of a non-existing club.  It's a good thing
		that I had to got to Watertown, NY to wash my hair anyway,
		otherwise it would have been a wasted trip.

    .8�    	And here's me thinkin' a Canadian Club is a "Ockey Stick"  :-)
    
    That's nothing,KeVin...sure most people in Clare still think the
    McCarthy Cup...was a prize given to people who informed on communist
    sympathisers back in the 50's.

    	keVin, I don't think they want me in Mass. for awhile as they
	keep cancelling my courses (was it something I said, the way I
	comb my bald patches, the Guinnness on my breath?).  However,
	the next opportunity to get to the Marlboro area is sometime
	in October.


	Still game for a six-pack of Brador?

796.15Bruins hibernate during the winter...KAOM25::RUSHTONUnscathed by inspired lunacyTue Sep 11 1990 15:2114
	I don't think yous can handle this Brador.

	So I'll bring it, I'll drink it, and yous can keep the
	empties to fill with the panther p*ss you call beer.  8*)

	Ah, keVin, the foliage here is fanatastic until around
	20 Oct., does it last longer in NH?  I'll bring my video
	camera so we can tape the leaves falling, along with the
	inebriated.

	Sl�n,

	Pat    

796.16Friday's Ceili!TOLKIN::OROURKEI&#039;m going to Dizz Knee Land!Mon May 10 1993 12:1810
    
    This seemed like as good a note as any:
    
    Just had to say that Friday's Ceili in Norwood was fun!   And all the
    rumours are true:  George Darcy is just a dancing fool!    Why, I've
    never seen anything like it....at last check Julie was still looking
    for one of her shoes.    :^)
