    Sometimes it's hard to tell between a Canadian and a Nazi through a pariscope.

    I have to admit I found this comment to be in poor taste Chris. Especially considering my wife is German and I take things like "Nazis" damn seriously. IF you want to go down that road we could have an educated discussion regarding current US policies and actions and their comparisons to the rise of the Third Reich but that would be stepping out from "Joking around". I know you are (hopefully) joking but please don't use words like Nazi loosely and kindly never make this kind of comparison again. My Grandfather fought in Italy, and most of my great Uncles landed on D-Day at Juno. I find these days people use the word without thinking about the millions and millions that died. Even German soldiers who fought in the war and had no nazi affiliation deserve more respect.

    Besides, the Third Reich didn't have donuts!

    Thanks dude,

    Its totally ok dude, I just hate the flamboyant use of that word etc. etc. for the reasons I mentioned. Better to say something than stew on my end of the PC. I was almost positive you didn't mean it anyway but thought I should mention it. No harm, no foul
