You mean to tell me your brother runs the Crossroads Restaurant in Gowensville, or is he in the white building diagonally across the street opposite the Spinx Gas Station?

Oh yeah....now you did it. My wife has cousins in TO and yes they think that the GTA is the center of the universe. Living down here in South Detroit (Windsor) we laugh because most people think Ontario ends in London.

Toronto is also home to some great musicians too. Rush, BTO, Yes. Toronto is a blast, but Muskoka is awesome. We have a family cottage up in Huntsville.

It was about a guy who lived in East LA of Mexican decent who got stranded in Mexico because he couldn't speak a word of Spanish.

I believe Jim's family did travel around alot (he has talked about the family living out of their car for a while!) but his biography on Wikipedia does confirm he was born in Newmarket
