For another thing, that was a lot of food to prepare without any plan in advance. And wasn't it too cold for ice cream?\

45	->My parents were both from Nova Scotia, a province from which they felt themselves in exile all their lives. My father was born in 1906, and was the son of a backwoods farmer. His mother had been a schoolteacher, and it was she who encouraged my father to educate himself - through correspondence courses, there being no high school within reach. He then went to Normal School, taught primary school, saved the money from that, got a scholarship, worked in lumber camps, lived in tents during the summers, cooked his own food, cleaned out rabbit hutches at a low wage, managed at the same time to send enough money ‘home’ to put his three sisters through high school, and ended up with a doctorate in Forest Entomology. As you might deduce, he believed in self-sufficiency, and Creator/HenryDavidThoreau was one of the writers he admired.
46
47	->My mother’s father was a country doctor of the kind that drove a sleigh and team through blizzards to deliver babies on kitchen tables. She herself was a tomboy who loved riding horses and ice-skating, had scant use for housework, walked barn ridgepoles, and practiced her piano pieces - since various efforts were made to turn her into a lady - with a novel open on her knees. My father saw her sliding down a banister at Normal School and decided then and there that she was the girl he would marry.
48
49	->By the time I was born, my father was running a tiny forest-insect research station in northern Québec. Every spring my parents would take off for the North; every autumn, when the snow set in, they would return to a city - usually to a different apartment each time. At the age of six months, I was carried into the woods in a packsack, and this landscape became my hometown.

That doesn’t happen, so the best part of the pageant is the National Costume contest, which went down in Miami last night.\
206	Dozens of beauty queens from around the world risked breaking their necks, cracking their shoulder bones and pulling their back muscles while carrying forty tons of glitter-covered fuckery on their bodies. The National Costume contest is the competition that separates the queens who don’t give a shit and bought their costume at a Party City on Biscayne from the queens who go all out and let their patriotic fuckery flag fly high. Case in point: Miss Canada who gave us Canada’s answer to the legendary low-budget ''Transformers'' costume from Miss USA in 2013.\
207	Allison should be proud of her home country today, because they broke the budget by throwing as much props as possible on top of Miss Canada. If UsefulNotes/MarieAntoinette moved to Canada, fell in love with a hockey-obsessed traveller and married him, this is what she would wear on her wedding day...She looks like the queen in The Sports Network’s version of ''Series/GameOfThrones'' called ''Game of Hockey Sticks''. The only way this costume could’ve been more hockey crazy is if she shot pucks out of her crotch at the judges.''

That didn’t stop the astronaut from trying to ingratiate himself to the Canadian audience, though, accidentally damning the country with the faintest of praise. The Toronto fans should have been grateful to hear that Canadian engineers built the landing gear on the Apollo 11 lunar lander, but no. No one ever cared about astronauts anyway; back in the 60s, [[DamnedByFaintPraise every little boy wanted to grow up to be a landing gear technician!]] The fans in attendance, thinking Aldrin was turning heel on them, booed poor Buzz, even after his enthusiastic exclamation of, 'Woo.
