really?

inflatable mounties?
inflatable beavers?

If I were a pot smoker, which I am not, this could be reasonably hilarious.

6. Thank you for documenting that.
Edited on Sun Feb-28-10 11:04 PM by countmyvote4real
I was doing a little 420 this evening and the inflatables would not have been my first choice, but you go with what you've got. (woo hoo giant mountie)

Now here's the giant inflatable but:

Bob Costas announced the appearance of the giant inflatable beavers. I think it was even prefaced with "everybody's favorite."

Yes, I am laughing my ass off.

Is it on youtube yet?

12. Sarah probably couldn't find Canada on a map…
I'm thinking she wouldn't want to be around those candians with
all their commie healthcare, anyway.

25. This is a bald-faced lie!
People love Nickelback.

This is the musical equivalent of Holocaust denial! Or something.

24. Agreed
Maybe Nickelback was part of the whole tongue-in-cheek thing.

21. I was wondering where he was. They saved the best for last.
We'll just pretend Nickleback never happened.

20. I absolutely love Canadians. They have such a great sense of humor
about themselves. They're nice and they're humble. We could learn a thing or million from them. And they gave us the musical and guitar god Neil Young. :)

23. That was the best part of the whole Olympics!
The closing ceremonies were the best--once they got past the part with all those kids with the snowboards. William Shatner, Neil Young, the inflatables...heck yeah! The only thing missing was Doug and Bob MacKenzie, eh? It WAS hilarious!
