Good heavens!
MA - do you mean that Toronto, which I understand is pronounced like something swallowed, is one of those frontier towns, where just anything goes.

That wasn't the image I had - but then, the only person I know, who has ever lived in Toronto, is pretty wild - an artist, you know. I've heard there are mad dogwomen there as well.

Also, MA seems fascinated by Hawaiian women??? (or Hawaiian speaking women)

It sounds to me Margo, that someone has OD'd on too many re-runs of Hawaii 5-0.
Book'em, Cuff 'em and bag 'em and tag 'em Andrew.

Hawaii?

Smeezes?

AWOL avatars?

Merry Andrew doesn't deliberately flirt?

What is going on here!

The esteemed MA has probably reached a certain age when men think every day is payday and that love grows on trees and they'll get the lucky free ticket for a Big Mac Meal. Yummy yummy.

Well, John, I have reached an age where I think I have the right to expect certain prerogatives not generally accorded to the purile and unsophisticated whippersnappers [there's a fine old American word]. So, let's have a little bit of respect, ladies, eh? I include you among the ladies in this context, dlowan.

(Now eh-Beth is going to mutilate me for saying 'eh'.)

Margo, didn't mean to imply that Toronto is on the order of a frontier town. It is, actually, a largish city, larger than Boston, I believe. But size has nothing to do with lawlessness (or lawfulness, for that matter). I've heard tell they have late-night poker games in Tornto and the bars are open til midnight and perhaps even later. So, there you are. What can one expect of such goings on?

Oh, yes. Almost forgot. Toronto also has the largest population of expatriate Latvians on the North American continent. I'm ashamed to say this, but my kinfolk have always been partial to wild parties and such-like goings on.

The current president of the Republic of Latvia, Mrs. Vike-Freibergs, happens to have been a Canadian-Latvian before she repatriated. I do believe she still holds dual citizenship as a Canadian as well as a Latvian.

Craven - well, to begin with, you have a new job - and we KNOW you wanna share the joy!

Secondly, booze is cheaper in the States -and I would have had to add freight costs as well....

When I'm on Deb's threads, and a few others, I choose not to be a lady. Been there, done that, not nearly as much fun.

Well, of course, Deb, that's why I said "in this context," the implication being "...and in no other."

Tarana had a population of about 2.75 million, but then, amalgamation took place a few years ago, it swallowed bordering towns whole, and now is the fourth or fifth largest city in North America (depends on whether or not it's population now exceeds that of Chicago). Frontier--hardly; anything goes--more than likely.

Oh, and don't repeat that "mad dogwomen" comment around ehBeth--who lives in Tarana with her two dogs.

Well, now, Seaglass. I see that in addition to your native Hawaiian (or, is that Samoan?) you're learning a wee bit of Latvian. But what, in truth, are you thanking me for?

But thank you for the smiles.
