    After WW11 ends, we’ll look back at this posting and laugh and laugh; because everyone will use Velcro closures in the future.

    Helena, after WWXI we’ll either have super advanced clothing and no need for closures or be wearing ratty togas (or both-snuggie anyone?).

    Oooh, number two already!

    ~It’s the final countdown!~

    Sorry, have had that in my head since the countdown began.

    @ #4 Black Ice – The Olympics and the Superbowl will sue your illegal use of WWXI.
    Speaking of countdowns, take that David Letterman and Keith Olbermann.

    Didn’t Gordon Lightfoot write a song about WW11? No, wait, it was Bruce Cockburn: “If I Had a Rocket Launcher, Part 11.”

    I didn’t know Canadians engaged in combat….. I figured they just said Sorry, and got on with life.

    It’s actually pronounced “SAWR-ee”

    Are the Canadians really so advanced that they’ve fought in 9 world wars already? They are clearly a superior people.

    @#16 KenriH: We had to do something while the NHL was on strike a few years ago. It was either war or bad handcrafts…

    Ah yeah, WW11, where the Aliens burnt down all the Walmarts, and world-wide hunger was only avoided by eating the French.

    Proving once again that the US would do well to learn from its northern neighbors.
