I don’t get it. I’ve seen hundreds of them everywhere I go. And not a bad-looker amongst them. Specially your between 16-30’s. They are absoluteley drop-dead gorgeous. Why the heck is that? And they’re real nice too. Seems like they often end up starting conversations themselves instead of you doing it. ---

I had the same experience in Toronto, so I’d say yes. ---

(Whistlepig dons flame suit) Well there are a lot of beautiful ones, but not all of them. I was at a Hooters in Vancouver a month ago and there were one or two that we thought got hired by some Canadian law that said the overweight and unattractive had to be 20% of the waitresses. Or was that 20% of the clientle? Is that how we got in? (Takes off flame suit) Whenever I travel, I find the women are more beautiful than at home. Partly, that’s because where I live I could have a barbecue at my house for all the non-white women in my town and still have some chairs left over. I love traveling out of Montana to see all the attractive non-Scandahoovian women. But there is something aboot those Canadian women. Whistlepig (Hooters is like, weird. That was the second time I’d been in one and if I go to another it would be for the chicken wings. Hooters lacks the honest leering of a strip joint and those orange hot pants and nylons make me feel like I"m Herb Tarlik. Plus, the darkest beer they had on tap was Budweiser. I can at least get an amber ale at most places in Montana.) ---

Sorry your experience with them hasn’t been as good as mine (or **Baron** ’s, for that matter) **whistlepig**. I talked to about six of them today who all mentioned various places in Canada - and I’d be lying if I said all six of them weren’t (strangely enough) stunning. If it weren’t for this one girl I am desperately trying to get to like me, I’d just ask one of them out. They seem so much more polite and friendly (even in a non-flirting way) than I usually get. ---

Montreal does have that reputation. And it’s true. Go out on a Saturday night and you will see hundreds, if not thousands of truly beautiful women. Unfortunately, I’m not one of them. ---

Well… There’s Jane\*… and Michelle\*… and Lisa\*… but they’re just a few. There are many attractive girls, yes. Unfortunetly, we also have our nonlookers 😛 [sub]\*Not their real names[/sub] ---

Oh, LaurAnge, yes you are, stop it. Canadian boys (especially French-Canadian ones) are gorgeous in large proportion too. As for Hooters… “Hooters is a great institution because there would never be a female equivalent. Women would never go to a restaurant called Balls. ‘Dyou want to go to Balls?’ ‘Noooooo! I hate their mozzarella sticks!’” - Margaret Cho ---

Where are you guys living? When I visited my boyfriend-type person in Toronto, I certainly didn’t get the feeling I had much competition there. And I didn’t see any guys half as cute as him. ---

If my French teacher is an accurate representation for Canadian women (since she’s Canadian and all), then they are all old, conceited and saggy, with huge boners for Oprah. Actually, I know other Canadian women, and yes, they are some of the best looking women I’ve seen. ---

\ ***Venoma preens** Well, maybe not ALL of us… but many 😃 Speaking from experience where I work, many many of the local girls are quite attractive. ---

But that’s not why I quoted you 😛 **Venoma** , you just created the funniest mental image… to me ‘preening’ is the way a bird will (for example) poke her face under her wing to rearrange feathers and whatever. Try to imagine a human doing that 😉 ---
