We kinda lost our minds after the uh, you know, the little tea rebellion. It's been said that English tea of the day took on psychotropic properties when exposed to the waters of Boston Harbor. Maybe some of our ancestors, you know, ingested some of that water by accident and... *sigh* well the rest is history.
But look on the bright side: Those thirteen colonies grew to fifty states,
and they brought you greasy fast food and infomercials. That's gotta count for something, right?

Where's a press secretary when you need one.
Personal Notes:
It seems that some of them have an unusual manner of spelling common words. This may be of great importance. I must report this find immediately to Chief Linguist Quayle.
Additionally, I must learn more of this 'football' the Schroeder fellow speaks of. It is apparent that football as we know it has sprouted anew in other countries. From brief research it would appear that their football is an evolution of our own. Perhaps our majestic influence is beginning to take hold. The Devil's Advocate General will be most pleased to investigate this matter. Now we just need to get them all hooked on Schlitz.
Our patriot brother August has arrived. Perhaps he brought a press secretary with him.

Hey! Stop peeking at my notes!
