So... how about those Smarties? And Tam Tams? And Hamentaschen?
All Ogle, No Cash -- It's Not Just Annoying, It's Un-American
Discussion of episodes currently airing in Un-American locations (anything that's aired in Australia is fair game), as well as anything else the Un-Americans feel like talking about or we feel like asking them. Please use the show discussion threads for any current-season discussion.

Cadbury Whole Milk choc for me, please.
And some quenelles, since I can live in France with impunity.
I am in PAIN. The American ambassador is threatening Canada should they choose to decriminalize marijuana possession.
Betsy, are the threats in another article? That one just says he mentioned slow downs at the border, but that the important thing was how it was done (decriminalized) and that he noted some states had already decriminalized it.
I'm sure the decision wasn't made by the ambasssador himself
Having lived under him as governor, I hope not. I wouldn't let him chose wine with my dinner.
And some quenelles
What are quenelles, my new favoritest food porner.
The threat is implied. If you liberalize your laws, we're going to make it really really tedious for your citizens to cross into the US.
And here I am, planning future vacations around the ability to go to Canada and get high....
Silly girl, that's Amsterdam.
What are quenelles, my new favoritest food porner
They're sort of like little meatballs, or dumplings, except that they're very small (edit: compared to genuine polpetti, which I like to make much larger) and can be made out of almost any meat there is. There's a place in Old Nice, near the Port, that served the fresh catch of the day (I remember a smothered salmon, which I then went back and cooked at my then-agent's Nice apartment), garnished with quenelles made of - wait for it - sardine and grey mullet, studded with slivers of truffle. I make mine, when I make them, by using a wide-tip plain oval tip on a pastry bag, and forcing them out that way. They're yummers.
I want to go back to France. I want to go eat something, damnit.
But I can drive to Canada! Take that, Dutchies!
But Theo, Amsterdam rocks!
Seriously, is fun fun fun place.
Young people in Rochester go to Toronto all the time to a) get drunk and b) go to the stri clubs. Which my friend calls The Canadian Ballet.
I think the pot won't be as much of an incentive, because at 18 it is much easier to get pot than to get into a bar here.
