My dad was from PEI and these two islands are just off the southern coast of Newfoundland. It is like stepping back 100 years..........and my French is not good enough.

HA HA HA - we got smart and started drawing a diagonal line down the side of the stack, making it easy to see if a card was out of place. -- You can't trust your best friends, your five senses, only the little voice inside you that most civilians don't even hear -- Listen to that.
