Actually not and I'm not a Geordie - another strike to the wrong column.

You know, you really are getting tedious.

I have no clue what's going on in your tiny mind and what has brought about your apparent mental breakdown, but I'd had enough of your prepubescent junk. Amazing to think that I did actually have a few shreds of respect for your opinion before this weekend. Pity you blew it.

Time for you to join your Australian friend on the ignore list.

Clearly I'm going to be deeply concerned that you'll never read this post...

Ahh, pity. We were there until '92. Pity that we didn't cross paths then.

Yup! Never ceases to amaze me. I now work with a guy that I used to have as a student in one of the classes I taught in grad. school. Imagine how freaky that was to find out on the first day at the company.

So your wife came all the way to Britain to reel you in? I must tell that to Hermina and her cousin, both of whom very lazily waited in the USA for British imports to arrive for them...

Yup - it's called the marriage abroad program... many students that take end up coming back engaged... see, inn my case she came to me, whereas in your case it was like the movie "Love Actually" where you went looking for her and lured her with that fine british accent of yours.

Some of the local ladies do seem to appreciate it...

I keep telling my gf it's part of the cunning plan to return America to the British Empire: we put lots of Brits on the western and eastern coasts for a pincer movement. She points out that none of us ever seem to make it more than ten miles inland, which dooms our strategy. Oh well...

Hey, it's a good strategy and don't let anyone tell you otherwise... let them get lulled into a false sense of security and then the next thing you know we'll have them all singing God Shave The Queen.
