hmmm old enough to remember the Beatles frenzy and to be horrified that my female friends liked this.
Uh, if you're old enough to remember the Beatles frenzy then you must be the same age as Beiber's Opa. I was born in 1957 and I was too young for the Beatles. In fact, the Monkees were created to sell to my generation.
I'm just not sure why such a need to go crazy exists in our species (and yes I am accepting that Canadians are the same species :P).
If you just look closely you will see the difference between need and desire and you will find they are not remotely the same thing. This is the evil genius of modern commercial enterprise.
The technical terms are "rhotic" and "non-rhotic".
Ha, thank you Stephen. Even after 21 years in this country I still struggle with the occasional conversation.
My husband Paul looking for something:
"Wheea?"
Me:
"Whee what?"
"What?"
"Whee what? What's so thrilling?"
"What are you on about? And it's not heeea!"
(Understanding him because "heeea" is probably meant to rhyme with "whee")
"Oh, you must mean WHERE"
"Weah WHAT? Now you want me to CHANGE?"

All those French-language folk songs they're taught in school, about flaying beavers and suchlike?

I had two older brothers who brought the frenzy into the house so I was exposed to it younger than most :).

Canada's busy rodents are safe for now, what with top hats being out of style, and their tireless industry bringing glory to our nation:

Heh, yes the wailing can be deafening.
...not to mention the blubbering!
World's Largest Beaver Dam found in Canada
That is a dam good story!
and no Resource Consents I'll bet...
Clever Rhodents and their Gnaw Willed Order...Spookily, Beaver originates from the Dutch Bever and German Biber (from Indo-Euro root meaning Brown) - and Justin does have those big, strong,
white teeth......OMG!
I see it all now, it all fits together..
Justin... Beaver... Timber... Lake...
Idle youth... idols... idylls......drinking at the dam...
rho rho rho yer boot...I expect the Dalzielian muse could
make something of "err-rhotic"
but I'm not up to the task...oooh, I love the taste of gauntlet in the
crepuscular zone (er, evening)...not so much ear-rhotic
as Rs about aphasia...we can be hear-rhos
Justin one day...**with apologies to David Boooie

Idle youth... idols... idylls...Prof Haywood... Rustle, anyone ... would you please... find some way to silence this guy, as he is very close to uncovering the the plot that I, along with all Canadians (including our rodents) have worked so hard to put into action...
