Note to Self: You Are Not Canadian

I was driving around town the other day when I spotted an elderly gentleman walking down the street looking something like this:

Only without the boots, the pants, and the rugged good looks--and in truth the coat was just a belted red coat and the hat was only similar. Here are the first thoughts that entered my mind:

1. I should slow down so he doesn't try to pull me over. Then I realized that a mounted police officer on foot probably couldn't pull me over.

2. I don't live in Canada and am not currently in Canada.

Why thought no. 2 came second is completely beyond me, but in the future I will try to do better at remembering that I'm not Canadian.

You should read Mrs. Mike. You'll stop twice for every red coat after ward, eh.
