Would the US invade Canada to take away our post-X-mas boxes?

I mean, if you guys ever found out the true significance of Boxing Day, I think you'd be on it like Haliburton on oil.

1. Yes.

The army is marching toward the border now. Safeguard your boxes.

I've never gotten the significance of "Boxing Day".

BTW Mr. Wonderful is from Co. Down, Ireland, Catholic and an ex-IRA man.

"Boxing Day" for the past 25 years means a group of half-drunk men descend on my house at 1:00 pm CST and play a card game called "45". Then about 6:00 pm CST or 7:00 pm CST, they all decide they want something to eat.

I tell them every year that there's left over turkey, ham, stuffing, etc in the "fridge" and to help themselves. Guess what, I end up making "samwiches" and tea for the whole lot, HP Sauce and all.

Mind you, this whole group has been at my house Christmas Eve/Christmas Day and were very well fed, but every year on Boxing Day it all happens again and I really don't' mind.

It's just a bit of craic!!

Watch your asses when we come to steal your water, though.

4. Nah

We'll invade Canada whenever Rummy decides to ... and not a second before.
