The only place where we still find mullets is in a Montreal suburb. We call in the "Longueil" style.

I counted 4... yes, 4(!) mullets BEFORE the Lang clinic even started! When they were setting up, the set up guys AND one student had one. Oh, and the dude from Long & McQuade, the broken arm guy who looked like Zoolander... he had something going on with the 'let too. I didn't think that crossing the border would actually make a difference but it really does! I spent ALOT of time in Winnipeg (damn girlfriend...)and i actually think that Surrey has more mullets per capita than even Winnipeg. I crossed the border and boom... there they were. Yeah, i even know a guy from Vancouver who comes CLOSE to the Bobby Rock... but not quite... Bobby Rocks...

I have never experienced a Montreal mullet... is that one that sticks out from under a beret? I can't imagine a French-Canadian drinking wine and having a mullet?!?! I am not trying to imply anything, just pondering the theoretical-paradoxical possibilities that lie within the juxtapositions of the said paradigms... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Okay, Okay...I'll add Winnipeg and Vancouver mullets too but that should be it.

Actually we drink a lot more beer than wine. Especially these days with the NHL lockout...we ain't got nothing else to do.

During Dave Weckl's clinic someone asked "Dave, how can you focus for so long?"

Well, the guy asking had a strong french accent... it ended up sounding like " Dave, how can you f**k us for so long??"

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">This is so typical of us. Hey, that could've been me!

To go off further, when I was a young student I had a summer job in a tourist shop where we would sell eskimo artwork. There were lots things made out of seal fur. In french, seal is phoque (pronounced "f**k"). But I was sure that the same word was used in either language. So to every american tourist who asked me about this fur, I would say: "f**k...f**k...f**k...!". I didn't understand why they would all look strangely at me and leave...

P.S.: I don't know for how long this topic will be able to go off like this!?! Is there a moderator on line?...Oh well...It's saturday night, they're all giggin' I guess... [img]wink.gif[/img]

Hehe... um... i could go somewhere and it would be funny but i would rather not get kicked off here... [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Damn, that is a good springboard for a joke about my Canadian gf who spoke french... but i can't! Hehe, oh well...

Oh, all in good fun. I love hard swingin' - as long as it isn't from out on a limb on the wooden Rock n Roll Tree...

Thanks for the Thomas Lang hair update. I am glad to see that my question inspired his own line of hair gel... i do think i should, therefore, be his first honorary endorsor...

YOU GUYS DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKIN' ABOOT!

One of the funniest questions I heard was at a Thomas Lang clinic, where some kid asked him what kind of shoes he had. He replied, "Red ones. Do you like them?"

[matricks]

I heard someone ask him about his shoes too... Thomas went on to describe how stylish they were [img]tongue.gif[/img]
