sjs> reference huh, or a tall story

Um, well, Jerry *did* write:

JF> From the Cape Breton PostNews comes this story of a Sydney couple...

Do you have a Cape Breton in Oz?  That's Sydney, NS.  (Where a couple
from the UK recently disembarked from a flight believing that they
were going to honeymoon in *your* Sydney.)

terry> i am assuming that this is sydney, cape breton island, nova
terry> scotia, canada which probably does not have a walmart.

Jeez, c'mon Terry.  First you blackhole all of Canada on your mail
server alleging excess spam but then you think we haven't been sucked
into the cesspit of American marketing slime.  There are Walmarts in
Sydney, Sydney River and Port Hawkesbury, all on Cape Breton.  [1]

terry> this is at best wishful thinking; at worst a blatant hoax.

This bald-faced assertion reveals that you don't know very many Cape
Bretoners.  :-)  


[1] There will soon be a Walmart just outside the limits of my near-by
    shopping town of Bridgewater, NS, replacing about 20 acres of
    pasture and old pines (from which the hamlet of Pine Grove takes
    its name) with parking lot.  I'm going to recommend they change
    the name of the village to Blacktop.
