Shawna...that is too funny and I had to do that for my one girlfriend in high school! She always had jeans so tight that I would have to pull the zipper up for her and then we would go out drinking and she would have to pee and I would have to help her get them zipped up again!!

Amazing how 100 years ago it was the upper part of the body the women wore tight clothing around, now it's the lower part. What a difference a century makes.

yes. I don't mind Canada cold, and they have the most beautiful accent over there. :(

:laughing: :stars: Yeah , it's pretty , sweet , eh ? ;)

Anyway , here's a little ditty to learn before you come - and don't forget yer snowshoes 'r touque !

I'se The B'y

(Traditional - Arr. GBS)

A new version of an old favourite, punctuated by a Cape Breton fiddle jig.

I'se the b'y that builds the boat,

And I'se the b'y that sails her!

And I'se the b'y that catches the fish

And brings 'em home to Lizer

CHORUS:

Hip yer partner Sally Tibbo'!

Hip-yer-partner Sally Brown!

Fogo, Twillingate, Moreton's Harbour,

All around the circle!

Sods and rinds to cover yer flake,

Cake and tea for supper,

Codfish in the spring o' the year

Fried in maggoty butter.

CHORUS

I don't want your maggoty fish,

They're no good for winter;

Well, I can buy as good as that,

Way down in Bonavista.

CHORUS

I took Lizer to a dance,

As fast as she can travel,

And every step that she did take

Was up to her knees in gravel.

CHORUS

Susan White she's outta sight,

Her petticoat wants a border,

Well old Sam Oliver in the dark,

He kissed her in the corner!

CHORUS

I'se the b'y that builds the boat and

I'se the b'y that sails her and

I'se the b'y that catches the fish and

Brings 'em home to Lizer

CHORUS

It's c-c-cold in Philly today and about to get quite a bit colder for the next few days beginning tonight (20's)

Fortunately we don't have any of Martin's stupid storms coming our way.

Shame on you, Martin. Shame!

ahem... you have to keep in mind that our storms are coming either from Sweden (Dappled) or England (Fintan)
