    I loved when Roger Doucet would sing it in the Montreal Forum, backed by the great organ they had there.

    I am impressed with your Canadian trivia! 99% of the US population wouldn't know it.

    Well, that was just for Canadiens' games. Course he'd do the U.S. anthem first, when an American team was the visitors(which was most of the time).

    To be honest Joe, they've changed our anthem a few times now and I stumble over the words . I can still sing the Star spangled banner though. Heard it so many times at hockey / baseball games its burned in my brain

    I don't know, Jeff. My current CT is well deserved.

    Thanks!
    The new brush worked great. Plenty of lather for my three passes from the pre-hydrated aged Reserve Spice. It's in the lineup for tomorrow as well.

    The 1% who would would be Bruins' fans lol(I used to be one, but when they got mean and ugly I changed to Canadiens...then Capitals a couple years later and have been with'em ever since).

    I would have preferred to wait another week, however, my son’s birthday is the 28th. We usually have a nice family BBQ, however, some microorganism had other plans. Anyway it takes me about a week to clean it out with the robot.

    Hanging in Charlie , Thanks . My Mom is back in the hospital again and my sister just messaged me with bad news about my brother. His cancer has returned. Been a crazy day today to be honest.

    The Shave
    Tired after beating my yard into submission, and was only going to do 2 passes. Opted for 2 and a half. Pass one WTG. Pass two ATG on the cheeks, and WTG on the chin and neck. The half-pass went XTG on the chin. Pretty darned close to a DFS everywhere except for the neck.

    Now to sit down, read about a page and a half of my book, fall asleep upright for an hour and a half, wake up, and wonder what happened to the day (I’ve been here before).

    Enjoy your Saturday, everybody! :D

    63 down, 37 to go!

    Yes, they have 3 versions, all French, Bilingual (F/E) and all English. I would guess the French version was the original anthem.
