Very, Very Happy
Bought a new CD for the wife today. There was a little card inside which read, in part:
"Your decision to buy this recording is appreciated by more than 40,000 Canadians who work hard producing and supporting music."
Well! We've managed to make a lot of Canadians very happy! That in itself is a very fine thing. I admit I don't know what the population of Canada is - probably about 400,000 - which means we have brought joy to about 10% of the population, all with something as basic as a CD purchase. When I think of all the wonderful things Canada has given us over the years - William Shatner, Wayne & Shuster, The Guess Who etc - I'm glad that we could at least partly repay that debt.
The CD? "Greatest Irish Bands".
No, Canada! I say, thank you!

The population of Canada is closer to 33 million...but generally we don't mind when people underestimate us or our accomplishments ;). I mean who uses telephones or blackberries these days anyhow?
