Just some Damn Canadian from Winterpeg Manisnowba.
They get 10 months of winter, one month of summer and then fall.
It was probably a culmination of being snow bound and cabin fever, having too much time on your hands which resulted in a new game of pool being invented.
The only reason that he took the game to Las Vegas I suspect is because we already have a game that we play in the winter months called Beaver Bowl.
We capture several Canadian Beavers, dye their fur orange, purple and black.
We hurl them down an elongated sheet of ice and try to land them on colored rings on the other end of the ice.
Then, we use bowling balls and try and knock our opponents Beavers off the colored rings at the other end.
Its quite a lot of fun but Vegas is too hot for Canadian Beavers so we had to keep that one in Canada.
That and we are starting to catch some flack from several animal rights organizations as we tend to go thru a considerable amount of Beavers.
After a fun afternoon of playing Beaver Bowl, we have another game that we play. Its called Trim the Beaver. But, I'll save that one for another time.
Fun fact. Strawberry flavoring is made from the secretion from the anal glands of a Beaver. So, when we are playing Trim the Beaver later, we can have Tequila Strawberry Beaver shots.
Canadians also invented Baja Rosa BTW. We tend to be an inventive bunch up here.
And considering that Beavers do build Dams, maybe that is why we are often referred to as Damn Canadians.
BTW, I do have a couple of recipes if anyone is interested. if you haven't tasted Canadian Beaver, you should. Quite nice actually. Its too cold up here most of the times so it doesn't spoil easily. Spoiled Beaver is quite nasty.
