I've actually seen this done. I was at a shopping mall watching some fish in a tank, when some random chinese dude walked up and started wiggling his fingers. The fish all started to swim in sync. I figure it has something to do with "schooling", they see the wiggling and think its other fish and follow it.
I did okay, but I missed 8 of them, and then kicked myself because they're things I should have remembered... "Vermont? People ski there!". Still figure I did okay for a Canadian
I managed to keep a drawing of a bird there once, for about 6 days before someone vandalized it. Then someone else came along and fixed it, so that was nice.
Man, poutine is awesome. I'm totally shocked to see it on here. Also, out west we do pronounce it poo-teen, but all the Quebecois I know pronounce it poo-tin.
