You reminded me, I went snowboarding with a girl from Toronto, you're accents are much different than I imagined. I imagined like completely unamerican, she didn't sound American, I was just heavily reminded of it. She was an absolute Champ at Skiing. I've never seen anyone so happy to see snow in all my life! :D

Like anywhere, there's different regional accents here. I really wouldn't know how to describe a Toronto accent, but I know it matches a lot of the accents from the Northern US (except maybe Upstate NY). We like the snow here (there's really none right now), though we complain about it a lot. It's messy and slippery! Skiing and snowboarding are quite popular here, but we don't have proper mountains like they do in Vancouver, which is why we could never host the winter games!

It's beautiful, I'd love to go one day. I love old European cities. (I was born in Belgium myself, I love going back to visit)

I live in Columbus, Indiana, where there's a stagnant attempt at a music scene and 80% of the people are *******s.

I'd rather be in Europe.

That band kicks major ass.

Freddy and the Dreamers (my mates dad was the drummer before they were famous)
The Smiths (Joyce played drums for another of my mates punk band called the hoax, in the seventies)
Simply Red (Hucknell lived just around the corner from me in the town I was born in. My mum used to baby sit for him too. I also got to call him a ginger twat (claim to fame) while he was in the punk band The Frantic Elevators when I was just a cocky kid.)
Stone Roses (I remember Mani when he was a football hooligan)
James (my wife knows the bassist. The bald one)
Man City (who?)

You forgot the Ting Tings. I'll apologies on your behalf.

I didn't, but now that you say that I will check out that band.

I live in Sydney, Australia. Was born in my local hospital and have lived in the same house my entire life. Wow, I'm sheltered. I really wanna go to Europe and maybe Asia if I get around to it.
