'The Quebec' may one day be free, but if they do, I am going to launch a lawsuit asking for compensation for all the years of French class I had to take. Yes, I say eh, eh? Just ask anyone who saw me oot and aboot at the SF crawl. 'Eh' is a linguistic extension of canadian politeness - saying 'eh' after a statment softens it by adding the nuance of 'do you agree?' so your statement doesn't seem so blunt and direct. Instead of saying 'Jimmy Buffet Sucks Weasel Balls' you can say 'Jimmy Buffet Sucks Weasel Balls, Eh?' - see, it sounds so much nicer that way. Because all of the pot-bellied, middle aged American men insist on wearing Hooter's T-shirts and socks with their sandals when they come to Toronto. I am a great supporter of the decibel system. Especially when it goes to 11. [ Edited by: tikifish 2005-08-11 06:59 ]
