Where I thought ice hockey was popular in Scandinavia, or at least Sweden, and Russia that is probably Bandy.
Anyway, I prefer Air Hockey.
I've never met anyone anywhere, who plays field hockey.
I'd say hockey is hockey. It happens to be played on ice. I've never played it but have seen it on TV all my life and attended professional and amateur hockey games. It's a major spectator sport at The Winter Olympics. Is it possible hockey may be the Winter Olympics most attended sport? Hmm...
But I've never seen field hockey or bandy on TV or anywhere else. What is bandy anyhow? I know what Brandy is. I'm planning on making some homemade Peach Brandy, maybe some Apple Brandy too.
I do play air hockey. I own an air hockey table, and as well, I have a foosball table, ping pong table, billiards table, two working antique pinball machines, and a Frogger machine, in my basement game room.
Football? I played organized football for over 13 years. In my life, I've played linebacker, wide receiver, quarterback, halfback, wingback, cornerback, and safety. Yeah, as a kid, I played in some Wing-T offensive formations. (If you count fraternity flag football, make that 17 years. I did knock a guy out cold playing flag football.)

Correction Buz...
Canada did not become a country until 1867. Confederation. Dominion of Canada. July 1, 1867.
The MFers that burned down the White House 50 plus years earlier, were Brits. Not Canadians.
I know that, but Canadians keep claiming to be the ones that did it. I'm sure British colonists in Canada made up a good portion of that battalion. The very same British troops that burned The White House suffered a devastating defeat when they tried to attack Baltimore.
The US had amassed most of its army in the north and had recently repelled the British from invading from Canada. Before that, the Brits had repelled the Americans attempting to invade Canada.
The Americans naively didn't expect a sea invasion close to Washington and had very few troops in the region. The Brits marched around unmolested after defeating a farmer militia but oddly enough took heavy casualties from a hurricane that swept ashore. The Brits way underestimated the capabilities of the American militia at Baltimore, who had a very competent commander. The British infantry was decimated and their navy couldn't get past Fort McHenry.
The last battle of the war was an overwhelming American victory at New Orleans, but none of the combatants knew a treaty had been signed and the war was actually over. Unfortunately for the Brits, their general was killed. His attack plan was very poor. He was the brother-in-law to the Duke of Wellington that had recently defeated Napolean. The battlefield was a one-way slaughter.
The big losers in The War of 1812 were the midwestern lndians led by Tecumsah, who'd allied with the Brits. With the Brits defeat and withdrawal in the west, the lndians were slaughtered by the Americans.
Actually, it was a war that could've and should've been avoided with strong diplomatic efforts. A lot of people died excrutiating deaths because of it.
The Brits, with American colonists help, conquered Canada from the French and Indians in the 1750s.
You have to remember, in the 1700s and 1800s, Britain was an unapologetic super power, empire, not a bastion of democracy. Look what they did in India, China, and other places.
The Brits handled giving sovereinty over to Canada much better than they did the lower American colonies. Congrats to the Canadians.
Though the war was basically a military draw, the results of the war were good for the USA for continuity, future growth, and eliminating future British interference. The results were good for the Canadians as it helped them solidify a separate Canadian identity, like the 1750s war did for the Americans. It established Canada toward its own secure and unique path and future independence without American interference.
Let's have some drinks.

My story starts off...
It was a sunny day in Manitoba as Betty, riding her moose named Ricardo Montalban, stumbled across the bouncing titties of Yankee lesbians frolicking nekkid in a meadow.

fyi? tequila is AWESOME! fuck canada! they're always making us look bad! bastards! AND they burned down the white house! AGAIN! freaking evil fuckers!
Don't be so hard on 'em. We got even with those very Canadian dudes that burned The Presidential Palace just a few weeks later when we routed and decimated them outside Baltimore. British General Ross, the dude that stole the love letters between President Madison and his wife, Dolly, out of the Palace, well an American teenage sniper did him in permanently. A bit of overkill I guess you could say. That's when all hell broke loose for the Canadian Brits. The way they hightailed it in retreat to their boats pretty much erased any glory for burning our building. I doubt the survivors told that story when they got home. Plus we had to paint the Palace white to cover the burn marks when we repaired it and it became 'The White House'. A marketing bonanza that helped lead us to become the world's superpower. Plus, we got a national anthem out of whipping them over at Baltimore. But all that is water under the bridge.
Unless the current guy in The White House manages to undo two centuries of great relationship repair to best friend status with our Canadian and British friends, I think we're all okay. I do believe we can survive the guy with silly hair though, and get things on track again.
Remember, what trio stormed the beaches at Normandy? The USA, Canada, and the UK. Who stuck their necks out for our embassy escapees in Teheran? Canada. Who do we share the most cultural overlap with? Canada by far the most, but a lot with the UK, too. Borrowing a Brit rock and roll term, 'The Kids Are Alright'.
Eh!

I prefer a riding crop for whipping the bite of the leather across my naked ass truly sends electricity through my body.. it also allows the person whipping me the ability to stand over me as I press my shoulders to the floor with my ass in the air with my knees spread wide.
Okay, I've ordered a crop...

It would generally be considered unprofessional in my work environment. In fact, if anyone on our staff dropped the 'fuck' word or similar in front of clients, at a presentation, negotiation, etc. they could be fired. We have a strict code of professional conduct.
Our employee handbook even states that swear words and other foul language is not acceptable and can result in dismissal.
So l don't cuss at the office, dammit.
