no, we were just little kids. i do recall a general feeling of having been tricked, though.
You could have put a shot of cream in it. Almost as good.

At w*rk we have the coke machine, and we have real cream for the coffee, and employees get a small drink (or small coffee) free when they're on the clock, so sometimes I'll put a shot of cream in the bottom of the cup and fill it with root beer. Almost as good as a root beer float, and totally free.

It sounds like it might be the same accent that Frances McDormand used to perfection in the
original movie, Fargo. I'm sure there are differences between North Dakota and Canada, though.

Still, I've always thought people spoke with a funny accent in colder climates
because their lips were perpetually puckered up from the extreme cold. :LOL:

Oofta.

:giggle:

Oh, your reply was so great. I learned a lot from you, as usual. I hate the way I sound, especially on a digital recording. I am originally from Portland, Oregon, and New Yorkers often lament how we all sound as if we're stoned most of the time :LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL:.

We speak very slowly, and it sounds almost like a California surfer accent, but not quite.

I now live in the US desert southwest, where a lot of people ask me, "Where are you from?" :ROFL::ROFL::ROFL::ROFL::ROFL:

When I was a kid, I would say "pop," but now that I've lived in the Southwest so long, I say "soda." :)
I'm origninally from Michigan and up there it's pop, not soda.

im of the belief that sharing the Lord is the main focus and that common thread will ultimately bind us in a Godly relationship. Wait upon the Lord is another way to be patient and trust.

I toured the Kellogg cereal plant many years ago in Battle Creek. At the end of the tour the guide handed out snack-paks of cereal.
