RE: Britain is Repossessing the U.S.A. - ! - McIvan - 03-07-2008 Not sure its actually a John Cleese thing, as this has been around since not long after 2000 under a variety of names. There are also some US responses, which are equally clever at poking fun at the Brits national foibles. All mildly amusing teases, but of course not to be taken seriously.

Naw, I just hit the quick reply and there were no faces available to me....I was too lazy to retype it all so I sent it as it was. :whis: Now I'm not sure if they teach lawyers much on economics but the time to buy is on the way down not the way up...or maybe that was sideways...anyway...almost all Americans have switched over to drinking tea from coffee anyway....but it's not HOT TEA!!!! And to clarify one other item....we didn't get our Houses of Parliament burned down either.... Good Hunting.

Well the reason he didn't mention the War (Vietnam) is mainly that wasn't a war..it was a Police Action just like Korea...see we've got all these different classifications for those kinds of things nowadays..... Good Hunting. MR RE: Britain is Repossessing the U.S.A. - ! - Mad Russian - 03-07-2008 Combat Wombat Wrote: We're relaxed. We're too busy arguing about whose to become President at the moment to worry about much else....although as POS says there are some triggers out there.....:eek1: Good Hunting.

It is not reasonable to host an event called the World Series for a game which is not played outside of America. I would just like to point out that every once in a while, we let Toronto play, just to show what good sports we are.

If the rest of the world would just adopt that attitude, we'd all get along... ;) |
