huh, even you got what I have Direct TV, I think that those channels that I
have would still be blocked. Such as Fox News or Newsmax.

I visited Canada once, back in 91. My wife and drove from Rockport, Mass for
our Wedding Night. (Bearskin Neck Rockport, Mass) after a pleasant stay we
drove west into Vermont then northwest until we reached Canada. I dam near got
a speeding ticket due to the metric numbers on the posted speed limit signs, I
didn't realize it right away, until I said to myself there was no way this road
is that fast, then it became clear.

We arrived in Montreal around 3am found a hotel that looked more like a castle,
as I recall the French crystal chandeliers hanging from above as I entered, a
short and sleepy clerk came shuffling his feet as he approached us, gave me
the price for the room, the moment he realized that I was paying with American
currency his eyes flashed open - like a lit-Christmas tree. I paid more but I
didn't care, I was just thankful to find a bed.

The next morning we attempted to get some breakfast they offered a wee glass of
orange juice and a croissant. We passed at the offer.

We didn't stay that long. We visited a place that resembled a mall. I remember
getting some Canadian cigarettes that came in a tin container and I remember
nearly choking to death, as I lit one of those bad boys. Holy Crap it was
stong.

I would like to go back for a longer stay, at some point.
