Default Round seven of "Name that Vehicle!"

Yes indeed folks, it's hard to imagine that we're already into episode seven of the riveting gameshow, "Name that Vehicle!"
The winner of episode six, Snowtractor lives in sub-arctic Canada, which is anywhere north of the 49th parallel. Mr. Tractor's hobbies include Penguin ranching; a hobby he picked up in New Zealand after visiting a Sheep station. (Don't forget the velcro mukluks, eh sean?) Another activity that occupies his time during the long, Arctic winter is exporting" Neige Jaune " to Quebec. Tabernac!
Mr. Tractor correctly guessed Stalinetz crawler after only one clue, therefore is the exuberant winner of four fine frothy fresh Lone Star beers, the "National Beer of Texas!"


Now, without further delay, I am proud to present the seventh episode of:


"NAME THAT VEHICLE!"

You mean Japanese Navy, sniffed he.




Dang Sean! You got a copy of Vanderveen's book too? Shouldn't you be out tending your flock? Is your production of "Neige Jaune" satisfactory?
Oh well, everytime I think I got a toughie, it gets solved lickety-split!


WINNER!

Nah,
I've got a George Forty book and a Kurt Rieger and Uwe Feist book and Dr.Seuss book...I would love a Vanderveen book , I don't have a single printed word of his. And with two Basset hounds and a Baby boy there is lots of Yellow Snow around. Incidentally , until I had see the American commercial I had never heard the word "ABOOT" before not in 40 years. It must be a very localised eastern thing the US has grabbed on to about Canadians. Though , I don't thin you hear "Howdy" outside of Alberta very often.
Cheers
Sean

ps: the flock of penguins in actually only one, you can see it here http://www.mapleleafup.org/forums/sh...ght=snowmobile

pps: you know Texas and california seems to be where I keep turning up 1940-48 cadillac 346 V-8 engines that are still running. I could sure use one for the Penguin to breath life in to it again, should you be out drinking beer and shooting doors of old cars and trip over one

Dang ol' cars keep eyeballin' me! 'course I shoot 'em!


Heuring's Theorem: The availability and proximity of firearms is directly proportional to their usage on smartass automobiles.


Yah, what is it with Americans thinking we Canadians pronounce about as aboot? I've never heard it pronounced that way.
As regards "Howdy", you will hear that used in Texas, once you get into cattle country anyway.
I'll keep my eyes open for a 346 runner. If any caddies eyeball me, I'll shoot 'em in the trunk! Cars survive a long time in Texas, although the sun plays havoc on paint!




CHIMO!

Geoff, here's a pic of my Wiener dog on sentry duty. No wonder the Krauts lost the war!

Default PittBasset

The meaner of the two Bassets doing her morning Tai CHi workout. She calls this the 'coiled serpent' just before she lunges at her opponent and rips out their thorax.
