I will never forgive the Americans for Macdonalds.
2 things though...
American TV and commercials are mostly regarded as cheap trash. Other than one or two pieces of genius such as star trek.
Also, about the American War of whatever it was, it is not covered in much detail in our education system due to the fact that the English have a much longer and more elaborate history to study.

Thats a good point that I never thought about. I do not remember how much in detail our schools went into this subject. Other than all the stuff about the Declaration of Independance. I have recently seen a good show on Discovery about the American Revolt. Was England, in the old days, as ruthless as depicted in some of those Mel Gibson movies? (BTW, Mel is an Aussie, for those of you who don't know.)
One more thang. I have met two, and ONLY two, English face to face, that I can remember. Both were dicks. Obviously they do not represent the entire population of England, but at the same time gave me a bad impression. I had to work with one of them for three loooooong months.
My sincere condolances on the passing of the Queen today. We as Americans are not infactuated with your royalty. I think most of us agree that Di,for example, was way overrated. A land mine charity effort??? whats that about??
Most USA TV commercials are cheap trash and I wish we could get rid of them.

We haven't lost a war since 1066.
So you still rule a third of the world?

Nope! This is all we have left:
Anguilla, Bermuda, British Indian Ocean Territory, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, Guernsey, Jersey, Isle of Man, Montserrat, Pitcairn Islands, Saint Helena, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, Turks and Caicos Islands, United States of America.
Oops, delete that last one, no-one is supposed to know about that except You Know and Larouche.

OOPS, I just realized that. Mother not Queen. You rule the US? Since when? All of those Islands make up about 1/39000 of the land mass in the world.
