[Daveman]

I'm from Britain so I'd say "the modern world".

Ooh, good one. I should know, I'm currently reading about the industrial revolution.

It sure beats the shit out of the French and American revolutions, sorry, "war of independance".

not too bad for a small country everyone calls england! lol! It's Scotland fools!

Yeah, all scotland needs to do to become independant is to get all their population off the drink and back in their sheds inventing!

[karmapolice63]

I'm originally from Chicago, IL; where all food comes in a form of sausage or starch, the political system is the epitome of corrupt, the Cubs, and DA BEARS!

Now I live in West Chester, PA; home of Bam Margera, and millions of Phillies fans since I live 30 minutes from the city.

and last but not least
L. Ron Hubbard founder of Scientology.

That movie is against transsexuals, not gays. Isn't it?

She had sex with other women pretty sure that's gay. Yes, I suppose I could've been more specific and pointed out that she was transsexual as well. More proof, Were also the FIRST state that made a law banning gay marriage and civil unions. This is what happens when 2/3 of your population lives in communities with less than 1,000 people.

Also her murderer is very upset:

That article just reports that Lotter is selling his clothes, just fyi.

I was just saying, it seemed to me that they were more mad that she was a transsexual than that she was gay.

 

[Thanatos34]

The Berlin Wall was definitely made in Germany.

Mozart is Austrian, I think.
