941.0. "Happy Canada Day..." by OTOOA::RANGER () Fri Jun 30 1995 15:09

    
    
    
    Hi, no I'm not going to start another long winded & controversial
    discussion.
    
    I just wanted to wish everyone a very happy & safe Canada day & hope
    for many more to come. It's a time to truly appreciate what we have
    & take for granted. We are 27 million people who live in the
    the 2nd biggest country in the world & that in itself constitutes
    a major privilege. I'll be damned if I'll let anybody tamper with
    it. 
    
    So raise a cheer & Happy Birthday to all. Let's show em' we exist
    & intend to keep on doing so...
    
                                           Bonne fin de semaine a tous...
    
                                                      J.P.

941.2working but enjoyingPOLAR::WILSONCCars = DeathSat Jul 01 1995 00:0713
    As I am working through my twelve hr night shifts this weekend I am
    going to be thinking about all those people stranded on the side of the
    highway. Those too drunk to know what rough shape they are in. The
    people who got too burnt to move and those with broken limbs and
    twisted tendons. Yes I will have to enjoy Cananda day thinking of all
    those people who are bumbed out 'cause things are not the way they were
    intended to be.
    
    Come monday I will celebrate what I consider to be Canada day, hope
    everybody has a nice time this weekend. Break a leg!

    How is the state of being `bumbed' achieved and what does it mean?

    re.-1
    Daily bumbing is the lot of Sarajevu, Busnia.
    In Sarajevu:
    First they get into a state of siege.
    Then they achieve the state of being bumbed.
    
    Happy Conodo day !
