| Hi from Winnipeg. Bought a 2004 Silver Wing from Christiansburg, VA...it has been an interesting journey to get it licensed in Manitoba, but as of last Friday, it is totally legal. Off to explore the rest of the forum. K |

| Canucks are the members of the Vancouver NHL hockey team. Only you damn Yankees call us Canucks. To the rest of the world we are CANADIANS! |

Oops, thought you meant the OP. Of course we can refer to ourselves as Canucks, but you can't. It's similar to African-Americans using the you-know-what word in talking to each other. Or not. |

| That's OK. I'm sure nobody in the US minded being called a 'Damn Yankee'. |

| Everyone north of Rison is a "Damn Yankee"... even my sons in law... Keith, if you are still on here after all this mess, welcome to the friendliest forum on the air. May not seem like it right here, but it really is. Bigbird suffered from a heat related breakdown earlier this summer. I guess he hasn't gotten over it yet. Hope you stick around and have fun with the rest of us. |

Rison? Do they have an NHL team?
Damn Yankees. Damn Red Sox as well. And I hate baseball. Sacrilegious. Is that when Jesus kicks you in the 'nads?
Still suffering from heat stroke. |

| Okay...this has got to be the MOST amusing introduction thread I've ever read! Thanks for the initiation. Thoughts: Really...someone in AZ would be called a Yankee?  ; NHL team, newly re-located from Atlanta is causing quite a stir...not with me, mind you, but one cannot help but notice it. ; I did not know there was a Red River in TX... :dunno or China for that matter. Any hoo..thanks for laying out the welcome mat. |

You still haven't answered my PM. Do you want to ride with the local large scooter club (mostly Silverwings) with a couple of Tmax, Burgman, Majesty, and a Piaggio thrown in to make fun of?
PM me for more info. Terry |
