shock and awe.

am practicing new phrase: "Je suis un Canadien".

Oh yeah. irony of ironies. My US passport showed up at my parent's house on Wednesday. The day this latest mess happened.

Unfortunately, I can't go hide my head under the covers, because I have things to do today. But I want to.

I love my country, I hate my government, I hope all the troops come home safely.

That's about it. *grief*

Ahh, oops. I should have remembered that from my Spanish class days. I picked up the phrase somewhere else, and didn't think that there was prolly a female difference. :) Otherwise, I don't know French, but it's high on my list of things to learn in the next year that I have to spend in the US.

Is the difference, perhaps, the difference between 'I am Canadian' and 'I am a Canadian' in English? Because, if I remember right "un/une" is equivalent to the Spanish "un/una", which translated as 'a'. But that's just a thought. :)

And I've always sorta liked Chretien, but that's just me. But yeah, I'm glad there's a world leader *listening* to what his country is saying. (Unlike Blair, or to a lesser extent, Bush.)
