Our English Football supporters are the salt of the earth. A bit like your Neo-cons loads of money and power but no brains so they go around smashing things up and killing people for no better reason than it feels good at the time. Oh and substitute English football supporter’s beer for Neo-con oil.

If I am going to be put in my place, everyone take note, Jes the man just did it! In style!

Jes you’re on fire pal, I’ll just sit down and masticate on the superior knowledge.

Yeah, you spelled it correctly but I fear as everyone else does that there is no real difference between the Tories or New Labour. Any real difference between them ended when all our affairs were dictated by Washington. No, I take that back, there is a difference at the speed at which the parties jump at the orders we are given by the US. New Labour 0.7 seconds, Tories 2.0 seconds. Other than that they are more or less the same.

Cheers…

I knew I could count on some support from you (my oh-so-worthy debator).

Re: Thanksgiving - It’s not at all about Independence from Britain, that’s the Fourth of July. Thnxgiving is about the early English settlers (at Plymouth Rock) finding the help (Native American Indians) they desperately needed to survive the harsh winters of New England (a Nor-Easter is one BITCH of a storm). Without that help, Plymouth Rock would have been another Jamestown Province (i.e. - no survivors).

Re: JJ’s comment about Goth haters - It wasn’t about you. The Goth culture takes a lot of crap over here, from all walks of life. It’s difficult to be accepted when the sheep are in wolves clothing. I had a view very good friends in college, who were Goth.

The best way to describe it is like this: If you’re into football (soccer, over here), are all football fans good people?

WHAT? When did I ever say something as aberrant as that?!?!?! I only said, in a sarcastic manner, about kws’ comment about tattoos being “like taking magic markers to a Rembrandt”, because that kind of disrepectful attitude towards the art of tattoos is something I find old-fashioned in a bad way.

If you look at my post, I was not saying anything about you being an old lady, or anything like that. In fact, I hadn’t even read your post above mine, I was just commenting on kws’s.

Whatever made you think I was talking about you, and most important, whatever made you say I think that rape and consesual sex are the same??!!?! You insult me, when I did not disrespect you at all.

I hope you’re not referring to me! If I read back through the string I don’t see where I actually say I don’t find Goth girls attractive. Maybe because I didn’t say that at at all. Goth Girls are a secret fetish of mine if things actually be known. I just don’t like the cliche crap of blood and guts- Its boring!

I adhere to the spirit of your comments and support them fully but I am too much of a Brit to do the thanks giving thing though…If I am not mistaken Thanks giving is actually a celebration of independence from Britain. I am not so sure that I’ll be helping anyone celebrate that… But, you Americans can do that which you wish and whatever makes you happy. God knows you do anyway.

Allow me to offer this suggestion. Thanksgiving is right around the corner. And although it isn’t a big holiday in GB, it is for Reese. So let’s start thinking about what gorgeous “stuffed bird” he’ll be serving us soon. Whatever he chooses, I (for one) hope it comes with a generous side-helping of Kerry Marie;D
