those pagan canadians! (part 1)

woman: so, how long will you be home this Thanksgiving?

girl: I dunno, it depends on if Bill's going to be coming with.

woman: well, I guess that's okay. are you two thinking of spending the weekend before or after?

girl: it doesn't matter really.

woman: what about his family?

girl: well, it's not like he's going to be celebrating American Thanksgiving with them.

woman: (gasp) why not? do you mean he isn't a Christian?

girl: what are you talking about, he's Canadian.

woman: Canadians are Christians!

girl: yes, but they don't celebrate American Thanksgiving!

woman: why wouldn't Canadian Christians celebrate Thanksgiving? what are YOU talking about?

girl: Thanksgiving isn't a religious holiday you know. It's the day the we honor the pilgrims who landed at Plymouth, and the Indians, the harvest, blah blah blah.

woman: so why doesn't he celebrate it?

girl: because he's CANADIAN.

woman: Canadians can't be thankful?

girl: they ARE. but they're thankful in October.

woman: I don't know what you're talking about. are you coming home with the heathen or what?
