I haven't been back to Canada since they tried to arrest me at the border for buying a set of flatware there.
Weapons of mass destruction?

Nope. Not kidding. Forks, knives, teaspoons and tablespoons. Oh, and they were in a cardboard box with bubble and plastic wrap and I had a receipt.

Maybe I looked like Snidely Whiplash to him? I don't think so. I lacked the stovepipe black hat.

Well if you were in Canada, returning home to USA then you wouldn't be going through Canadian Customs. So it was the US customs giving you a hard time for your kitchen purchase?

Good point. But I don't remember seeing anything like 'U.S. Customs' on their uniforms.

Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed the little time I spent in Canada and wish I had had more time.
Border crossings are a bitch no matter where you go though.

You should come back while we still have a country... you need to see the west. Even though BC is ripe full of fucktards it's still a beautiful place. Come on up, I'll take you fishing and get you high if you want.

Welcome. You should post some pictures of your swap and progress. Even if it's an empty engine bay. Pictures are always nice to look at.
