I saw a new report from Newport Beach ( is that in Virginia? NJ?) anyways, they were doing the polar bear club there.
Plus on CSI New York, I think they had a show where there was a Polar bear club outing near Coney Island (I think or Rockaway beach - My american geography is really sketchy)
Charl... I watch the Tim Hortons Brier on sunday. the whole thing was broadcast over the weekend on CBC. So I agree, curling on mainstay network stations Plus more fans in the arena than some NHL teams can muster up...
I think that one weird thing (now that you mention food) that canadians do is to refere to Kraft Dinner as KD. Every body knows what it is by KD. Apparantly americans go with the more generic maccaroni and cheese dinner.
One weird thing that Americans do is refer to ham slices (a la egg mcmuffin ham) as Canadian Bacon. When ever I heard the term Canadian Bacon, I always wondered what the American bacon looked like, because, I was used to the strips of side bacon that we all eat.
Maybe they mean peameal bacon, but that isn't cut round like egg mcmuffin meat. plus it has cornmeal on the outside, plus i don't know anybody that regularly eats it....
