But you're spread out in the world, a Canada there, Australia way down there... But we're crammed in a third of a peninsula :dead:
Like little children arguing over a pillow and dreaming how good it was when the bones on the bed were still alive

Jimbuna 10-19-11 03:41 PM

We don't even own bones to argue over these days :doh:

Thanks for that...as a newly admitted member to the Florida Bar, I really appreciate comments like those.

Maybe I should not bother to visit these forums. After all, no one "gives a rats crap what [I] think." :nope:

That being said, this is a pretty inane thing to argue about...illegal or not, the U.S. isn't going back to British possession, so who cares?

That was pretty much the point of it.

A rebellion is always legal in the first person, such as "our rebellion." It is only in the third person - "their rebellion" - that it becomes illegal.
From the movie 1776. :D
