I only went to Frost for a year and half, my reall mascot for the school district I was in from K to junior year was a Bulldog. ^_^

As for the igloos... *Shakes head.* I don't get that. Of course I've been bright, even as a child... Or maybe common sense? But if I lived up there in ice, I'd want the Ancient Ice City from Stargate. ^_^ Lotsa room.

Anyone like my new look?
Nice 'n fiery. 3nodding

And having Canada fairly close to where I lived has given me the opportunity to think they live like people in Seattle. At least in British Columbia, anyways. Igloos are for the high regions of Alaska. razz

Polar bears are the mascot of the local school/district (Pre-k through 12 all in one building for three area communities.) Frost, Texas. They call their football field the Tundra and the colors are blue and white.

I like the new look, especially the circlet with the red hair.
Cool. The mascot for my old high school was a Spartan ^.^

I'm just a little curious, but how is it that people I know are easily able to convince Americans that us Canadians live in igloos, and ride polar bears around?

Funniest one though, guy in my theatre class told us about.

"Do you really live in an igloo?"
"No, I'm rich, I live in an ice palace."


You guys can't talk because a good bit of Canadians think we have 52 states xd

I've been asked several times if I've ever lived in an igloo, of course there is a reason being that Iceland sounds cold... It's not! It's bloody well not cold far from it really.

Hey, it's not like American geography is taught in our classes ^.^ At least we know they're called states. There are some Americans that think Canadians don't have provinces, but states as well.

I also met a New Yorker who didn't know the Canadian currency was also the dollar.

The reason I bring that up is due to something Robin Williams brought up:

"You can't have an economic crisis with that:
'The looney fell today-'
'Oh how sad for you!'"

I think that only works if you're not used to it though.

I hate to break it to you, the "Stupid American" joke has it's own specific genre...

The looney is not a familiar term to your average American. Hence, we find it funny, and therefore, are "goofy". Otherwise, you flew right over my head about what you were aiming for, ya' crazy Canook. razz

*Pokes in.*

The looney was mentioned in the Women's Gold Medal game today. Congrats Canada for your Women's team getting the gold. ^_^

Oh, I wasn't refering to that. More along the lines of the igloo thing. Some people are really really gullible.

But, my generation seems to be much better than their parents ^.^

Failesaich - We won? I haven't been following the Olympics much >.< I had customers at work complaining about how he got PWN'd by the Swedes at the mens hockey, but that's all I know.

How's the US doing?
