No use...under the Webster-Ashburton Treaty Canadians can freely canoe across the Minnesota/Ontario Boundary Waters.

It being understood that all the water-communications, and all the usual portages along the line from Lake Superior to the Lake of the Woods; and also Grand Portage, from the shore of Lake Superior to the Pigeon river, as now actually used, shall be free and open to the use of the citizens and subjects of both countries.

The only Duggar show I would bother watching would be if all the girls were sent off to different parts of the Wellesley Campus for a semester or two (they'd flunk out with all that high quality home education they've received). The boys can go off to Florida State or Syracuse for boobs, booze, and other college experiences.

I didn't know there was one. But I'll be honest; I'd be stoked if there was a video about lady boners over my immodest clothing. Share if you dare, Sausage Woods.

No dresses? Because dresses were okay in the 1950s, and we all know everything was perfect then.

Ugg Boots. These will not arouse any men, but they are ugly.

Ugg is actually a word shortened by leaving off letters from the front and back...the word is Fuggly
