Like a good neighbor, "eh" 

“Tarrif-ic news! Congrats, allow me to show you around town, I mean Tom, I mean Mr. Holman…how be Czar…good fences make for good neighbors, right? There’s no need for a wall here, as we are all North Americans, eh?”

A river runs through it…and we own it, symbolically presented in the form of an Old English "D" — no wonder those Quebecois still steer clear, after they tried, failed to succeed (or is it secede?) 

Bridging the gap…”and Howe!” The perfect embodiment of ‘elbow room’…and like a good neighbor, Gordie was always happy to return the favor of a cheap shot (common contact sport term) by picking up the “check!” Duel citizen was he…

Speaking, of sports- while the American futbol has not yet been able to cross the 50…yard line, the NHL and MLB has seen more a merger between US/Dem…

Speaking of Dems…as in “I’ll meet you half weigh between the flags" -- it’s where our Demo-critic I-Deals meet with their Parlay-meantary  Pro-cedures…

Fun border-line fact - that at one point we around here are actually north of our northern neighbors- at several points along the border, Point Pelee being one the more southern most points of our northern neighbors😕…all about where you are...standing. And then there's all those strategically placed...

Toll booths, that take their toll on U.S./Them, and otherwise, in both languages take their "sweet time"😠counting out ex-change... available in different currencies...at least this early morning we still have what's called in IMF lingo, "leverage"...(is the current actually stronger on the Detroit side?). In any case...

No need for border patrols here, or there, given the natural boundary...as in the language barrier -- despite the minimal distance we could not be farther apart...eh? right!

  "King David, where art Thou?" Here and Now: When I need and you most...for a quote, a tip, let alone a quip... Clever crafted commentary: At his best, in his field, "In my humble opinion..."  "Coming to you tonight..." Each and every night, assuming we welcomed him with his partner, known in our home, as simply "Chet" when we referred to him on his own, but more formally when paired with "David" as the "Huntley-Brinkley" reporting team... Distinctly Brinkley: who got called on whenever things around here, US, were on the brink... "Sow, David..." It's how I heard it, and still remember it, as he was asked to comment, well into the eve of what was casted to be his final telecast of this type, on the eve of a second coming...of the Clintons, their return to the White House...a second (merry) go round... "For the love of Mike!" While he was not shy of the microphone, having gotten used to one on his desk ...
