That's a total of 31,391,758 Americans claiming decent from that little
European island.


So IOW there's no such thing as an American claim to fame.

So when are you thieving *******s gonna give the land back to the Native
Americans then?



Quite a generous proposal, I am stunned.
I would think you would want us to
give it back to you.

go down to the Falklands and tell the Argentinians to bugger off.


That was my point. Good show.

Of course, "we" means "The USA and the Brits right behind us".


My understanding is that the Americans were rather keen that we didn't go to
war with Argentina. The US imposed sanctions on Argentina but didn't have
any military involvement.

What are you smoking? Is an aircraft carrier and its escorting
mini-fleet "nothing"?

Wait! Don't run, did you escape to the US for dental care?

At least in the UK I get medical care for FREE...

Of course, much as in dentistry, the British health care system is
*renown* as the standard for health care.

Just as Brits are *known* for their good teeth, so are they *known* for
their great medical system. Just as Brits are *known* the world over for
dental hygiene, so are they *known* for their health care. Certainly,
British dentistry and medicine go hand in hand.

I will go further Ian. I will state here now and for posterity that
British Martian Lander Technology is held in as much esteem as Brit
advances in dentistry and health care!

Yes, there you have it- an admission: Brits are far, far, advanced in
dentistry, health care and Martian Lander technology.


Much as I dislike responding to a Troll (Wingardium Leviosa is possibly
the right thing to say!), but I suggest the our Peter Spammon looks at
the proportion of the US population that still have there own teeth at
the age of 60, (not synthetic implants!), and compare that with the UK.

You might then want to stop drinking so much Coca-Cola over in 'Murrican
land when you see the discrepancy.

I don't mind my crooked, but healthy teeth, even if I do go for a dental
check-up only every 6 months.


In addition to their renown in the areas of dentistry, martian lander
technology and national health care, the Brits are well known for their
firm grasp of reality.


Nope, a World Health Organisation report from a few years ago.

Actually it's losing several wars to the French that does it to you.
Stiff upper lip and all that rot!




Anybody got a clue WTF this **** is going on about?

What wars.....???


(We *lost* a war? - When did that happen? Why wasn't I told? - Actually,
forget that, the French actually *won* a war??? What's that all about
then?))

It's all nonsense. Napoleon was actually English.
