Re: [NTLK] Very Very glad to be back!!!

Is there also a website for Canadian sex acts like they mention on "How
I met Your Mother"? :)

I guess I do Mike!

I think that there should either be a short or some scene in a film
equivalent to the scene in Donnie Brasco where Depp explains what
"forget about it" means: except it would be in association with "eh".

Usage of "eh" as a Canadianism:

1. The question:
How's it goin', eh?

2. The statement made into a question:
That's a big tree, eh?

3. Appreciation:
Thanks, eh!

4. Greetings:
Eh!!!!

5. Interjection to confirm the attentiveness of the listener:
10 more hours to the camp ground, eh, so just have a few more beers and
relax.

6. Expression of excited agreement
For sure, eh!!!

Then there's the "about" vs. "aboot" thing...

Spot the usage!

Don't you mean "Hi! Eh?"
