:Canada: Welcome everybody!
Like all diplomatic balls, this celebration is to have fun and make connections.
Help yourself to the tacos, a 10000 Islands speciality, and I hope the selection of beer does not disappoint.
To begin the introductions, I am SensitiveMadScientist here and TheSensitiveNewAge in the 10000 Islands. The avitar is the flag of diplomacy for my region. I have been a variety of ministers and represenatives for the 10000 Islands, just ask if you want more information on that.
In real life I live in Pennsylvania and I attend Penn State University, it is in the middle of the state. The state borders Lake erie on its northwest corner.

*as the orchestra strikes up a tune, JD turns to JT with a naughty little smile*
"I think its time we started turning some heads don't you Jack?" ;)
"Great idea JD, seems to be a bit stuffy in here eh?" :lol:
*They grin evil grins at each other and all but run to the dance floor.*
SensitiveMadScientists - October 29, 2005 04:15 AM (GMT)
What can you guys tell me about regional history? From what I have seen the trends are to orgnaze Canadian themed regions to protect mutal interests with Alberta being a setback,and to further democracy on NS, correct?
kana da: It happens.
SensitiveMadScientists - October 29, 2005 04:35 AM (GMT)
Sleep calls on my part, the staff will handle the clean up so free feel to continue dancing and other merry-making. I hope to talk to all of you later.

I never feel a thing is real
When I'm away from you
Out of your embrace
The world's a temporary parking place
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
A bubble for a minute
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in it
Say, its only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain, deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't you ever bet me
'Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
You're gonna love me, like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
We'll be happy together, unhappy together
Now won't that be just fine
The days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or out of the money
But I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine
Got a little rhythm, a rhythm, a rhythm
That pit-a-pats through my brain;
So darn persistent,
The day isn't distant
When it'll drive me insane.
Comes in the morning
Without any warning,
And hangs around me all day.
I'll have to sneak up to it
Someday, and speak up to it.
I hope it listens when I say:
Refrain:
Fascinating Rhythm,
You've got me on the go!
Fascinating Rhythm,
I'm all a-quiver.
When a mess you're making!
The neighbours want to know
Why I'm always shaking
Just like a flivver.
Each morning I get up with the sun -
Start a-hopping,
Never stopping -
To find at night no work has been done.
I know that
Once it didn't matter -
But now you're doing wrong;
When you start to patter
I'm so unhappy.
Won't you take a day off?
Decide to run along
Somewhere far away off -
And make it snappy!
Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be!
Fascinating rhythm,
On won't you stop picking on me?
It seem like happiness is jus' a thing called Joe
He got a smile that make the lilac wanna grow
He got a way that make the angels heave a sigh
When they know little Joe's passing by
Sometime the cabin gloomy and the table bare
Soon he kiss me and it's Christmas everywhere
Trouble fly away and life is easy go
Does he love me good? That's all I has to know
Seem like happiness is jus' a thing called Joe
(repeat above)
Little Joe, little Joe... little Joe
