I've always been friendly with the US and have had pro-American ideals on a wide range of issues. But I also temper that feeling of goodwill with the memory of guys like that one bonehead at a Wyoming gas station (a northern state no less!) who looked at my Canadian twenty all dubious-like (back in the 80's) and said quite seriously "How do I know this is even real money?"
lol
Or the other dufuss at a Florida gas station who kept repeating "We don't take Canadian (money)" after seeing "Bank of Canada" typed across the top of my AMERICAN traveller's cheque with fucking USD printed beside the amount.
Trust me, my American friends, when you're up here travelling I can assure you with 100% certainty that your american money is good anywhere you go. Which means obviously that our dumbass rednecks are smarter than yours, at least where international currency is concerned. :D
