America didn't win by itself. In fact, America is indebted to the French and the Spanish for helping it out and supplying it.IdealistCommi said:
And Coldplay is our shame.
OT: God's own counties (every county in the country thinks God lives there)
Pomposity (that's me all over)
Political Correctness (the term "race" as in "running" was apparently changed to "dash". No one has complied)
Health and Safety (anyone want a pamphlet on the correct usage of a door?)
Tea
It's apparently not called Spotted Dick anymore. I think "Richard" is one of the replacing words.cloudywolf13 said:

I find it interesting how almost every U.S. citizen has mentioned the rev.war, and not a single Brit has even touched upon it. Highlights the importance of each in each nation's history, don't cha think?
1. Innovation.
2. Democracy.
3. Justice.
4. Hypocrisy.
5. Engineering.
6. Good food.
7. Fantastic, world-shaping music.
8. Commonwealth.
9. Queen (Unfortunately.).
10. Black Cabs, Red buses, phone booths, and other assorted and regrettably outdated images.
I'm proud of my country. Seems to be quite a passée view to take, now-a-days. Britain may not be as powerful as it once was, but then no modern country anywhere in the world is or was as powerful as Britain used to be, it's a foolish comparison to make. As well as having hundreds of inventions to our name, we are still world-class scientists, engineers, soldiers, artists, and more. We're great at almost everything we do...
...Except sport, of course.

Well England has raped and opressed Scotland, Ireland and Wales for the past 1000 years so it would have to be 10 bad words.
If you can't play live, what's the point in playing at all? No one will have any fun.Gilbert Munch said:
... And that is the paradox they call 'Coldplay'.KillerMidget said:
Nevertheless, I enjoy their albumed music, although I do admit their suckiness at being live takes a bit of the wind out of them.
