syrup from Vermont.


On behalf of all Canadians, I wish to extend my sincerest apologies to
Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, his family, his staff and all his adoring
fans south of the border. I have no explanation or excuse as to WHY a
sudden outbreak of taste, dignity and self respect should occur at a
very inopportune time.

The very fact that this grievous, ill considered and unfortunate episode
should so completely and bitterly devastate our long standing friendship
and cooperation certainly says something about the depth of our
aggregate intelligence.

Vermont? Do you know an innkeeper named Dick Louden?

I'll accept your words as being the way you feel, however I cannot in
good conscience accept your apology for reasons I feel inappropriate
to expound upon. So as far is it goes for me it's still maple syrup
from Vermont and no more Canadian Bacon ........ other than viewing
the movie of said title which I found to be rather humorous.
