    I'm wiht wicked n the dance club theory... watching totally spatic drnks think they look cool on a dance floor is great entertainment.

    And don't worry, JR, us old guys can sit at the bar laughing at the dorky dancers.

    You gotta get me really, realy, really stupid drunk before I consider that (And I haven't been that drunk in probably 10(0) years)

    Oooooh, yeah!  The Boy can really sing... if you like Weird Al. Or Sinatra.  Or Weird Al (or a lot of other artists) sung in the style of Sinatra. And me, well... I know some songs that don't require actual singing.

    I tried "Mack the Knife" one evening--oh, it was actually morning--and made a complete ass of myself.

    I think it was after about 1/2 dozen pints of Blue.

    Just get home from work and am missing all the fun.
    I hope these dance clubs allow casual dress 'cause I am not bringing any pants (shorts only).
    Weather calls for high 80s each day. I may look like a tourist but I'll be cool and comfortable.
    And they better play lots of disco, not that techno crap on XM 81 BPM.
    Hell, I'll bring my own XM boombox and turn my room at the HV into a club.
    No cover, no pants, no problems.
    And on a serous note, I've crossed the border 4 times over the last 4 years and they have NEVER asked for my birth certificate. I brought it the first time and it went unused.
    They look at your photo ID, ask what the purpose of your trip is and that's it.
    Course with my luck, they'll ask for the BC.

    Does it look somewhat official looking (meaning, it doesn't look like something you made up on Quark).

    I'm guessing what you got is something very similar to what you'd get at the Hall of Records (or whatever its called).


    I don't think I've ever been asked for my BC whenever I hit Canada. Of course I always bring it, just to be safe, but never had to show it.

    It's one of my favorite spots, about 3 kms from our place. The lakeshore bike path goes through the grounds and there's a couple of ponds that freeze over in the winter where I've played a little shinny over the years.

    And the buildings were used in the shooting of the Police Academy movies.
