    My shop is in a small town in Central Oregon. I used to have a UPS driver who came in nearly every day. Nice guy.

    One day I got a package from a former student of mine who lived in New Brunswick. The UPS driver noticed the address and asked me where New Brunswick was. Before I could get the words out of my mouth to tell him, he looks at me with this surprised and now wary expression and says:

    Last summer, a woman stopped me on my way back from some local Highland Games. She complimented me on the kilt, then asked if I spoke English.

    Vancouver ,WA USA was established before Vancouver, BC. and is on the Columbia River, which divides Washington and Oregon.

    Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.
