George,

 GP> I get cramped in too much clothing, so summer is great -- shorts &
 GP> nothing else!

  I'd probably make a poor nudist...I sunburn in 10 minutes, and I'm
allergic to stinging insects.

 >   Maybe they should triangles for a hypoteneus (sp?).

 GP> Close: hypotenuse.

  At least I tried.

 >  GP> Q: What kind of batteries do they use in Canada?
 >  GP> A: Triple Eh

 >   Is that Huh in Triplicate??

 GP> More or less, 'tho' I find our "eh?" more elegant in speech; t
 GP> essentially invites the listener to join in the conversation.  The
 GP> Japanese use "ne?" the same way.

 GP> When I'm in a pub just south of me, in one Washington state's border
 GP> towns & a stranger asks if I'm Canadian, I ask how they know & they'll
 GP> reply with a bunch of superfluous ehs, so I respound, "uh huuuuuuh,
 GP> yuuuuup, uh huuuuh" :D

  Sort of like Southern DOS -- Ya'll reckon?? (Yep/Nope).

 GP> Q: How does a German confuse an English speaker?
 GP> A: Replies "9" to any oral math problem requiring "0" for an answer.

  I don't want to hear about the rectal problems. :P

 GP> Spouses are like world wars.
 GP> You never refer to them as the "first" until there's a second.

  Never mind what's going on in the foxholes. :P
