the same but different

Nine year old boys still learn naughty words in another language, but now that language is Chinese. (As evidenced by the fact that Sam proudly proclaimed he knew how to say ‘Do you like to fart?’ in Chinese.)

Eleven year old boys still leave school projects til the last minute, but instead of consulting the 1965 edition of Encyclopedia Britannica stashed in the basement, they go to Wikipedia. (Which has a very nice map of Saskatchewan, dontcha know, eh?)

In looking for pics, Saskatchewan seems to look a bit like Michigan. Or Wisconsin.

Favorite (only?) song lyric mentioning Saskatchewan: “I can say Saskatchewan without starting to stutter but I can’t understand why we let someone else rule our land.”

the wolverines

They may be the alma mater, but oh man - what were they thinking spending $4 million dollars for this coach? so they could look like they sent the JV team out?
