You must have been bored to post this news cowboy!

daveberta said...

Emil! Where have you been?!? I missed your memorable comments! ;-)

Actually, I have been to both Brooks and Onoway, and of course I care!

D :-)

Emilio said...

Hmmm. I've never been to both unless driving through Brooks on your way to Medicine Hat counts. I don't even know where the hell Onoway is.

And you consider yourself a real Albertan, Emil?

You sound more like an out of touch Ottawa LIBERAL! ;P

daveberta said...

Onoway is northwest of Edmonton.

Emilio said...

Whatever you say Jim! Mr. Alberta Liberal Party blog. Thats outta touch with Alberta. I'm out of touch b/c I don't know where some friggin town is. You sound like an arrogant Ottawa Liberal! You're prob. related to Jean Chretien! What's your last name?
