Second Gen (2003-2016, 2016- )
I may not write about all of those I see…that lawn mower on a stick, the chopsicle over at the base…but they are out there. Jetsicles and their variants. Yesterday, heading towards a great new microbrewery in old Galt, I saw my first rocketsicle out by the roadside in front of a budget motel. I bet there are some missile-sicles out there, too.
Imagine my surprise at seeing a jetsicle take such an important place in a moment in Canadian political history. Sadly, NB Premier Mr. Lord did not reference it in his press conference statement:
Mr. Lord warned that “when you put an obstacle like the passport between Canada and the United States, and you start thickening the border between Canada and the United States, you’re hurting our prosperity.”
These are the times in which we need to call on our jetsicle legacy. More on Canada’s jetsicle heritage here.
The mighty mighty Flea emailed me a link to this place [ed.: portland ordered a link decommissioning due to 12 pop-ups] where you can buy or pretend to buy a jetsicle home of your own [Ed: as seen on eBay]. I am thinking I would prefer to live on a boat but it sure would maximize your herb garden space.
Check out real jetsicle goodness here, here, here and here. I have one to get at the Kingston airport and I know there are a couple in Halifax needing added to the collection.
