  • -100º Fahrenheit (-73 C) Santa Claus abandons the North Pole. Canadians pull down their ear flaps. -173º Fahrenheit (-114 C) Ethyl alcohol freezes. Canadians get frustrated when they can't thaw the beer keg. -460º Fahrenheit (-273 C) Absolute zero; all atomic motion stops. Canadians start saying "Cold, eh?" -500º Fahrenheit (-295 C) Hell freezes over. The Toronto Maple Leafs win the Stanley Cup.
  • lol..good one C.Bear It's true that hell will freeze over before the Leafs win the Cup..Go Sens Go : )

    Rocket

  • Hi Ottawarocket,

    The words above are meant for Ham eggs, or whatever his name is.

    Your Friend,

    Tommy

  • Tommy thanks for defending me brother! but HamEggsCheese meant no harm and was indeed just kidding around with me.

    Rocket

  • Cheese? cheese??? how did that get in here?

    nahhh, cheese goes much better with little onion or tomato ... or pickle ... and maybe a cracker or two ... yep, crackers! we seem to have plenty o' them about! lol

    ... all washed down with 3 bottles of Stella! (inflation!) :)

  • lol I really did mean chips. In Canada there is a great dish from Quebec called Poutine ..Chips and gravy with melted cheese curds blended in..Very tasty and goes great with 3 bottles of Stella or Molson Canadian : )

  • Hi Ottawarocket,

    Thanks for letting me know that. Then I was in the wrong, and for that I am very sorry.

    Your Friend,

    Tommy

  • Don't be sorry Tommy..I wish I had more friends like you, who are willing to stand up for a friend : )

    Rocket

  • Hi Ottawarocket,

    Very nice job, I truly enjoyed. Keep up your fine singing God bless.

    Your Friend,

    Tommy Burnside

  • Thanks very much Tommy..Means a lot coming from a great Musician like you : )

    Rocket

  • Hi Ottawarocket,

    Well the way I look at life, is no one is better than the next one. We just try our best, to do our best. Each talent is very unique, and it is indeed a gift we are given to share with others.

    Thank you so kindly for your nice comments God bless.

    Your Friend,

    Tommy

  • (part 2) ...

    It's not the way I might sing and play guitar (your chord timing needs a little work) but, you're a cool guy and doing your thing in your own cool way!

    A new "insult" for you ... "you really should be on the stage! ... yes, sweeping it!" lol

    I jest, good luck to you and carry on doing what you enjoy! :)

    PS: I had considerd resuming the pause button, but decided a cup of tea may be better for my health! ;)

  • Thanks Ham Eggs and chips are there 3 of you? I really do appreciate your honest comment and you didn't rip me to shreds..so hey your pretty cool also..Now if I can just get a job sweeping the stage for Dylan lol..Watch the rest of my vid and drink beer..it's more fun than tea : ) Thanks my friend

    Rocket

  • Hi,

    I don't feel you have to insult anyone. If you had any talent, you would know how to word things. I don't appreciate people who think their above others.

    Yours Truly,

    Tommy Burnside

  • Hi,

    I'm sorry if you feel I've insulted someone, that is not the case ... more importantly I'm pretty certain Rocket himself was not insulted ... it appears to me he took my comments in the manner I intended. My "insult" was a tongue-in-cheek addition to the "insults" he read during his vid, commonly known as ... humour! something I find lacking in so many these days! :D

    btw, your message, it's not "their" it's "they're" ... see? my talents extend to English grammar too!

    Have a good one! :)

  • Thank you for the grammer mistake, I'll need to brush up on that, like you should on Music. Have a great year.

    Yours Truly,

    Tommy Burnside

  • Hi HamEggsChips..I do realize that your comments were tongue-in-Cheek and no I certianly was not insulted. In fact I got a laugh out of your comments..Rock on : )

    Rocket

  • Hey, Crocket, I managed to sit thru 5mins 2secs out of 8mins 6secs, before hittng the pause button! (notice I said PAUSE and not STOP button, I was considering punishing myself further!) ... surely I deserve some kind of medal for that? ... or maybe just a bottle of that cool Stella Artois you have there will suffice! :)

  • Thanks HamEggChips. You really do deserve a medal for watching so long : ) I have a bottle of Stella with your name on it : )

    Rocket

  • I'm back from having tea and thought I was almost recovered, but then made the mistake of watching another vid of yours ... yeah! the one of your mum's Xmas bash! - ooh! the air turned blue! so blue I had to turn the central heating up! ... if she's like that before she has a drink, what is she like after??? lol

    Think you'd better make that TWO bottles of Stella! :)

  • lol two bottles of Stella coming up...

  • well done mate...very cool!!!

    Rocket

  • Hey Rocket! Glad I get to see your new vid, with great jokes and great music! Great cover! Didn't suck at all, buddy!

    (Love the guitar tuna!)

  • Thanks very much for watching John..Great jokes lol well maybe not so great..thanks buddy : )

    Rocket

  • Don't ya just hate that brutal honesty from friends!!!! But, those jokes were pretty funny. Noooo it did NOT suck, and I think I told you that before...nice playing Rocket...More..More...more....

  • Thanks Stella,gotta love that honesty from friends lol..I am not a comedian nor do I pretend to be one..I make these vids like I would talk to friends (and you are a good friend) so the crappy jokes are just part of who I am lol...I bet it's still warmer in Florida : )

    Rob

  • Your jokes aren't crappy, i love them, they make me laugh and we could all use more laughter...I think, anyway. Yes, it is still warmer here, I was at the beach today as a matter of fact!!! Loving it...

  • Thanks Stella..we really all could use more laughter..I even hear that the medical world agrees on this : ) as laughter is a stress reducer

  • I'm glad you rephrased that "Have you tried Stella yet..." Uhhhh we don't want people to get the wrong idea about me...ok??? Hey Rocket its HOT here...in florida. Great jokes!!! ahahahah. I can't believe they named a beer after me...WOW

  • lol..yes I must rephrase "Have you tried Stella yet" I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea about you : ) It's starting to warm up in Ottawa About 40f here today..the snow is slowly melting..I drank quite a bit of Stella (The Beer) when I was In Florida because they sell it for a fair price there..Here in Ontario the sin taxes make this beer quite expencive (200 bucks a bottle or so : )

    Rocket

  • i had "Stella" tonight and I liked the experience very much...thanks for the recommendation. i didn't think the price was all that much..considering the enjoyment I had, oh and there was music too!!! Peace my friend.

  • Yay..someone took my Recommendation on Stella..Just a nice light tasty beer : ) and it does go great with Music ..Thanks Stella (the person not the beer lol)

  • Great tune, and I love your opening monolog. As always. --Jan

    Rob

  • Now there's a song delivered fine! My guitar is out of tune (need to get my bass out!)

  • lol thanks identitytraveler...those fish sure can tuna guitar : )

    Rocket

  • You're style is very much like my dad's!

    Everyone says he sounds like Neil Young, and you sound a bit like Neil too.

    I really liked this video and song, you are a very good folk singer/guitarist, I love the Dylan vibes you give out, so keep on writing your music. Look forward to hearing some soon hopefully.

    Joe

  • Joe thanks very much my friend, being compared to Neil Young and Dylan is a real compliment..now if I could only get a backup guitar player as talanted as you

    Rocket

  • THAT'S PRETTY DAMN COLD!

    Urgh, I hate winter, and everyone should too. It's been leaving us here though, so come on spring, do your thing!

    Fantastic job on the song, too. Folk's a dying beast around these parts, nice to hear your contribution. Loved this!

    And yeah, the tuna gag was riotous :D

  • Thanks so much Benny! Yes winter sucks for sure. It is getting warmer here so spring is just around the corner : )  Folk music is a dying beast around these parts also..There are a few of us Dinosaurs left though...Thanks my friend

    Rocket

  • another view,cool video bro.

  • Pepi you are a great friend..Thanks Bro : )

    Lowforlife

    Rob

  • The Tuna gag is very funny (this first time)

    You're one of the best folk guitarists that I've ever heard play.

  • Chris thanks very much...I'm glad that you enjoyed the cheap tuna gag lol....and thanks for the comment on my guitar playing..you really are too kind : )

    Rocket

  • i have to say, i lived in Colorado for 28 years and i know too well, how you feel about waiting and wanting spring to break through the cold of winter. i liked the song and the video. i would have probably like the songs you chucked as well. it's spring here and it's on it's way to you.

  • Mike my friend, thanks very much for taking the time watch this vid..I do apperciate it. Colorado is beautiful! I really am sick of the snow here but it's getting warmer and I've seen some geese flying in...so I really do think spring is on it's way...Thanks Bro : )

    Rocket

    You Rocketized the song pretty good. And no thanks for watching and the end didnt sucked too much.

  • Thanks for putting up with my rambling Sherri, not everyone likes it lol..I always use a thumb pick when I am finger picking but my fingers kept getting stuck here..part of the reason I am not too happy with this performance lol..More practise I guess : )

    Rocket

  • Chipmunks flinging themselves at an electric fence..now that's cold. Your so funny..OmG... I look forward to the "ramble on" in your vids. Your vids give us two categories at once comedy & music. Don't ever change Rocketman.
