1. What is a cup of tea when you live in the metric system?
Is the metric cup 250 ml, kind of like a pint in the UK is now 500ml?

9. you are correct.
It's one of the Great Canadian Commodoties.

When I visit my friends in Seattle, it's a matter of expectation that I bring Canadian Coke, 222s, Claratin, Smarties, and Kinder Eggs.

I exchange, I get competitive long-distance plans and all the assault rifles I can carry.

18. Gentlemen, you're forgetting our role
as shining lights. Don't bicker in front of the Americans. They think that we're perfect. Please confine squabbles to the Canadian forum.

22. I'm married to the guy that's wired backwards. Caffeine makes him drowsy.
This quite sucks as he's quite the coffee fan. For him, a triple shot is like a Valium, and a big pot of french press is like heroin. He doesn't even nod...

Me? A diet pepsi at supper and I'm up till... well... now?

23. 4 hours,
some of them may be in bed, others pacing or whatever it is you do when you can't sleep.

Do yourself a favor and at least take your sleepless time to do some stretches (yoga-like or actual yoga postures if you know them). You'll thank yourself come tomorrow.
