On the Road, Again...eh?

One of the reasons why people come here, day after day, no doubt, is to learn at the feet of an international traveler, bon vivant and raconteur, all those details and nuances that may otherwise escape the common man. For example, did you know that in Canada, Denny's uses a maple leaf instead of the apostrophe in their signage? I know! Mind blowing isn't it??

When it comes to haute cuisine, what is hauter than a Grand Slam from Denny's? And from the Denny's in Edmonton, Alberta, an indication that the men of the Great White North might not have the aim those of us South of the Border take for granted?

So...would those little things in the bottom of the urinal be funnel cakes in Canada? Inquiring minds want to know!!

BTW, Sex in Advertising will be live from Alberta tonight, so, set your DVRs! More later in the week, sleep deprivation notwithstanding...

  1. What I remember most about Edmonton Alberta is the titty bars. I made up a Alberta passport and had the bars stamp it or tape their business cards inside the passport.

    1. When they ask, What do you Americans have against Canada? I say, "Alaska, Montana, Minnesota and Michigan for starters!"

  3. Those urinals are designed to keep you from pissing all over yourself. Wear suede shoes (or flip flops) in front of an American Standard and you'll want to pee sitting down.
