ROFL, at number 12. That is only funny because we got new helmets in during spring practice that have the same interiors of Paratrooper Jump Helmets.

16 reasons why ditching Parliament and crazy King George was a good thing IMO.

Can you imagine life under royal government? Extra vowels littering the literary countryside. Being constantly corrected on the proper pronunciation of words like "scone" (which BTW was stolen from the Dutch word "schoonbrood") when "biscuit" does the job just fine. I'm surprised it took as long as it did to send the Lobsterbacks packing.

An English misspelling of the word "schoonbrood"...

Ah... I was thinking maybe it was a misspelling of sconce.. which is a light fixture.. and it would be hard to argue that a light fixture and a biscuit are NOT two different things.. at least here in 'Merica..

Good point.

And then there's the insidious French encroachment. When I was a kid we had these things called crescent rolls, because they were shaped like crescents. Now all I can ever find is something called 'croissants'.

Steve, don't worry about it too much, put a complaint in a letter to the editor of your local paper, and the french will run from all claims of "croissants" within a week!

Edit, when the hell did i hit a thousand posts?? I don't remember that

"'Taint likely" (i'm practicing my Mainer accent). These are pastries, FRENCH pastries, we're talking about. not stupid rifles. It's well known (meaning some guys i know said it) that the French are mighty serious about their food, and their baked goods especially. Bet you didn't know that a bakery insult was the real reason Napoleon invaded Spain...

We reject French culinary terms at our peril...

Point taken. I'd hate to see the United States invaded by France.

As for the side driven on, it's my understanding (meaning somebody told me a long time ago, and I've never found any reason to challenge it...never found any reason to believe it either, but that's a different story) that the English knights would ride their horses to the left so the sword hand would be facing a potential enemy.

Americans drive on the right mainly because the British drive on the left.:p
