obviously they were terrorist whales working for al quedaandbad mouthed enron

[Guest guest]

Poms are the English, or Pommy Bastards (joke - we love 'em - especially

when we beat them at cricket and soccer...!) Just for the record, my (late

English) dad was C of E, but he had to convert to RC to marry my (Aussie)

mum, who was from Irish Catholic stock - not exactly a match made in heaven!

 

Look at all you free-thinking, interesting, well-educated American folk -

proves my point!
