It wouldn't be as cool. The Canadians would bring us pie and compliment us and shake our hands while the Americans preen like peacocks.

Not if we used Minnesotans to conduct the ceremony.

Looking at the list of borders, it looks like you have to go pretty far into the middle of nowhere before you find a crossing that isn't 24 hours anyway.

For a lot of us in the military, we use sometimes use elaborate pageantry/are overly formal for amusement, or to subtly poke fun at higher-ups/the system. this video is a good example. (Created after a company of Marines was told to get rid of their porn)

I wonder how many of those soldiers at the border closing are smirking on the inside? Either way, it looks like a lot of fun. [Smile]
