    New Yorkers wait on line.

    Torontonians wait in line.

    In New York it is a "pocket book".

    In Toronto, it is a "purse".

    In New York a chesterfield is a cigarette.

    In Toronto a chesterfield is a couch.

    The last letter of the alphabet is a "zee" in New York (and the rest of the USA)

    But a "zed" in Toronto and the rest of Canada.

    In New York, I took a class called legal process (pronounce pra-cess).

    In Toronto, it would've been pronounce PRO - cess.

    In New York, they make progress (pronounced pragress), in Toronto they make PRO-gress.

    In New York they drink "soda"

    In Toronto they drink "pop"

    In Toronto they say "good morning".

    In New York they say "*%&&%&#@@&^ %&^%&$4!!!"





    LOL
