Chip,

I like to keep it basic - classic milk tea with tapioca pearls. Sometimes go wild with some condensed milk or brown sugar.

If you book 75+ nights, you will save a million dollars.

Do it! How often will you ever have the opportunity to do that?

You really can't afford NOT to book with that kind of savings.

You should jump on those fast...there's only two Master Suites on the property, the JaVale McGee and the Nima Jooyandeh. Lucky either of them are available TBH.

This must be an even BETTER deal then, because its only for a mini suite!

lapka,

The USA is a pretty diverse country. We have and know of most things. Like, I haven’t checked on this, but I’d be willing to bet you can get that birch sap drink like Tetemok (sp?) has somewhere, probably in NY.

Naaaa... on the serious note, I understand that USA includes very wide range of values, norms and also food habits. But nevertheless I think that the frequency of consumption is VERY different for some products in various countries.

Not sure if that was sarcastic... but OOT is not a good representative sample of the US.

Also, maple is sooooo much better than birch. Like, by at least an order of magnitude. We made maple syrup and my dad still does, although this year was not a good one.

This is true. USA#1 in general is not big on gruel.

lapka, don't listen to Brian. He's probably the only person in America who doesn't collect his own birch sap. Must be nice for rich people like him and Howard who can afford to just buy it in the store.

Half joke half serious. I am undecided with Canada. Are all Canadians like greg or like DZ?

Lapka,

Canadians are famous for not being like DZ. I guess you haven't watched South Park.

I’ve known quite a few expats and Canadians have almost without exception been pretty much like DZ likes to see himself- confident, outspoken, and mean. Is there some sort of emigration requirement for people like that?
