WANTED: Meet-ups in Metro-Detroit

[PeterF]

But Mister Dinsleywhale! THEY HAVE SOCIALIZED MEDICINE!

So, please, be super careful if/when you go up there to visit Canuckistan. You wouldn't want any of them commie doctors they have up there working on you...and especially not to receive a blood transfusion. I hear they use the RED kind.













(I was born in Oshawa, eh. But embedded, deep cover, in the US for several decades now...shhhhhh.)

[winsleydale]

Oh, my sweet, naive Pete... Fear not, I shan't catch the commie on my brief, periodic visits. But I thank you for the kind concern.

[winsleydale]

And for the record, I have the honor of living in the only part of the USA where I am free to reach said Canuckistan by going DOWN. so there

Most Western New Yorkers have refused to knuckle-under to the Federal demands that we pay for a special license. Local participation is miniscule, which has wrecked the Fort Erie restaurant business. I used to go over for Chinese lunches, dinners, and grocery shopping every week. Haven't been over for 13 years. Canada will let us IN, but our own government will not allow us to return. ( /politicalrantoff/ /sorry/ )

( note to Winsley - We go West to Canada, from Buffalo. There's miles of water to the North. )

I just want you guys to know that everytime you make mean jokes about Canada or
being Canadian, I go to the hospital and get my feelings checked for free.

I live less than one hour from Detroit , near Kingsville Ontario , which is about 30 miles from the Ambassador Bridge crossing between Michigan and Ontario .... You will need a Pass Port to cross the border .....there are about 5 of us who meet in a group called the "Cedar Island Antique Phonograph Society" about once a month at my house on Cedar Island ...you would be more than welcome to join in ....you must be able to tolerate cigars and pipe smoke , scratchy records , and the occasional Alma Gluck...

Are we talking Matt K. & Lonesome Lefty?

Yes ....Matt , Lefty , Tim S , Oliver the Hound , and what other riff raff who might be handy

[winsleydale]

Well, as of today I can officially go to Canada. So, next time y'all are having a Victrola party, I'd love to know it.
