Our National Anthem aka "Canadian National Canthem" played on Molson beer bottles & cans.
Update: Spain took home the Euro Cup 2012. Final score-- Spain:4 Italy:0 Team Italy got clobbered.....badly!

Today this wonderful nation I live in--
although I could do without the winters-- turns 145 years old. On July 1, 1867, Canada became a self-governing dominion of Great Britain. Customs include pancake breakfasts, parades, concerts, carnivals, festivals, firework displays and citizenship ceremonies for new Canadian citizens. It's a national holiday but several of the malls are open today with amazing Canada Day Sales! Of course that is what I will be doing later on today, shopping til I drop and then watching the sky light up with colorful fireworks.
Although I find the World Cup a tad more exciting (Team Brazil!!) I've been watching the Euro Cup and was rooting for England to win the cup. Unfortunately Team England lost on penalties to the Italians and that was the end of that. Today is the finals: Italy VS. Spain for Euro Cup 2012. I'm a little undecided on which team I want to win. Speaking of soccer, I can't believe Mr. David Beckham has been left out of the Olympic soccer team even though he was listed to play. After helping win the Olympics for London and with all the promoting he's been doing, Team Great Britain's manager Stuart Pearce decided to go with Craig Bellamy instead. I would have to agree with what some others have been saying, "a terrible and clueless decision by the team manager."
Happy Canada Day & to my loyal and dear readers across the boarder in a few short days you celebrate your Independence....... Happy 4th of July. Wishing You A Safe And Fun Long Weekend. Peace Out. ~x
