Comments Oh Gaz, what a wealth of information you are. However, in Kara's defense, I do feel compelled to insert a little correction in your reasoning. You'll recall that there was this funny little document called the Declaration of Independence right?? Written long before the war was won?? The British may not like to recognize it, but the colonists did in fact offically absolve their allegiance to England in that document and declare themselves a sovereign nation. Which would lead to the conclusion that the war won by the Continental army was won by American citizens my friend, not British.

Comments Oh, and some other things:

If my Allyson is actually getting married (we have to be on our guard here, as she is in a film about getting married, which might lead to some confusion), how difficult can it be to have her cad husband 'dealt with'?

You'll notice that Mil translates Margret into early German as 'to be dangerously insane'. I would like to submit and alternative interpretation in Old French: M' (Me, or, as in this case, I) Argr (argue) Et (it). Spooky, really.

Comments Oh dear, Kara, did you think you could slip that one in without comment?

The Continental Army won the war. An the Continental Army was comprised of citizens of ... anyone? anyone? ... that's right, Britain.

Some Brits beat some other Brits. And isn't it funny how, even though the Colonies were just about evenly split at the time, *every single American* is now certain that they belong to the rebels? For all you know, your great-great-grandpappy might have been the finest NCO in the Essex Rifles.

On the same note, of course, what makes you think that all the Brits you crow at would heve been loyal to the Crown in the circumstances? I doubt I would have been.

Get over it. I have. Although I am Scottish; the English still seem pretty pissed off about the Malvinas, so maybe they lie awake at night cursing Paul Revere too.

Comments I like you. I think you are a very funny guy... But I have the sad sad duty to inform you that Alyson Hannigan is getting married. It breaks me to pass on this information since I have a huge crush on her as well. I must say, I was told by my wife, who had an interesting evil grin on her face when she told me. Your girlfriend hasn't been to America lately has she?

Comments Why is it that Brits are often putting America down, yet they saturate themselves with American culture? Mil's page alone is littered with American references (no offense to him.) I had no idea you people were aware of the Cosby Show. We often hear about entertainers wanting "to make it big in America."
We won the war. Either get over it or commiserate with the Southerners, who are also struggling with their humiliation.

Comments Tomato in pre-packed sandwiches. I have to agree that they are a bane of existence. I would mind even less if they were to list the accursed 'fruit' in the ingredients, but they never-bloody-do. Is it a plain chicken sandwich? Is it? It says that it is in bright, bold, gut pleasing English on the package. They may even mention a little mayonnaise, possibly seasoned, to offset the chicken and add a little piquancy, but they never, ever tell you about the evil little outcroppings of red horror that they have seen fit to hide within.
And don't get me started about 'B.L.T.s'. 'B' and 'L' I can live with, although, to my mind, 'B' is entirely sufficient, but the 'T' can take a running jump.
I'm with you Mil and, God willing, we will be able to stamp out the evil tide, although we should make sure to use old shoes, as I'm sure tomato would stain good leather.

Comments I always used to wonder why my boyfriend (now ex for some reason) would look at me with this look of astonished bafflement when I had done something completely reasonable and rational like spending half an hour eating my toast and then not letting him buy the paper because we were going to miss the bus, which by the way he used to complain about every morning, when he could just have easily have bought the paper while I was having my breakfast. I guess now I know. But you tell me why he used to say I reminded him of his flighty French trotting horse. That still makes no sense. I'm half French, by the way, but surely this is only coincidence.

Comments First of all, Gaz has a bad attitude. Not all Americans are illiterate morons who don't have a grasp of world geography or the capability of reading lengthy sentences. Most of us just don't particularly care to spout off the location of random Middle Eastern countries, nor do we have the odd proclivity that seems to plague the British of needing 25 words to say what could be said in 5. The English language is a beautiful thing, but Americans are a little too fast paced to spend a lot of time exploring intricate sentence structures. Ok, now with that said......my real reason for writing is this. Mil, your not ever coming to the U.S. to promote your book is a horrifying reality that has yet to fully sink in. When it does I'm sure I will have to be hauled from my desk when I collapse in a fit of sobbing hysteria. Besides the fact that I think you are a fabulous writer and possibly the wittiest person alive, I have to say the red hair is really cute! It is appalling to me that the most well written, humorous book I have come across in a long time is not being promoted in this country. Sigh...maybe Americans are a little more shady than I thought... Well, in any event, you should still come visit. I know of a very nice YMCA in the area....

Comments You guys are American, right? Most of you, anyway. Have you ever heard of a comedian/enne named Tina Kim? Apparently she was on MTV's "Bunker Project" in 1999.*

Just thought I'd ask as I went to see her show tonight. Not because I thought it'd be funny - she's a girl - but because I fancy her. Turns out, if you've got a ticket, it's not stalking. Who knew?

Anyway, I didn't ask her out because American girls over 19 frighten me. So I'm writing to advise you all on how to be less intimidating.

You see, in Britain, we do not 'date'. We 'go for a drink' or, as you Former Colonials** say, we 'hang out'. Unlike you, we do this well beyond our teens, and the idea of having to a) think up some fun activity and b) pay for it, just to make the first tentative speculations in the direction of spending a night in a bed that smells of other than Lynx and biscuit crumbs, terrifies us.***

Tina made it quit clear that she does not 'hang out'. So our relationship is doomed. Fortunately, as she likes Robbie Williams and is so American she hasn't the first badger-baiting idea where Jordan is (there are two answers, of course: on the river Jordan (duh) or in the middle of Britain's greatest concentration, at any given time,of Association Footballers), she is no great loss.****

Nevertheless, ladies of the New World, the lesson stands: if you want the ups of bad teeth and kebab consumption, you'll have to put up with the down of the Slug and Lettuce.

I believe you will find our menfolk to be worth the sacrifice.

Gaz

* Note for Britons: MTV buried six people under Timnes Square at the end of 1999 so that, in the event of world collapse, a team would be ready to save MTV from the inferno. Thank God for that, eh?

** (c) The Weekly, 1812

*** I bet you don't see sentences that long in the Colonies. Apart from at the Texas Department of Corrections, obviously.

**** Yikes! That one was a monster, too!

Comments PPssSSS: Well, I guess I'm on a roll today with my "Remembrances of things past," all relating to: loos, WC's, heads, johns, etc....
My friends in France had it tough compared to most of us. One friend in Toulouse lived in a large apartment building that took up a block. It was an ancient building built around a courtyard. His 3rd fl. apt. did have running water... but there was no shower or bath in the whole complex, and there was just on toilet down on the bottom level. Another family I knew had an entire house as a dwelling, again with running water in the kitchen, but only had a small porta-potty for a bathroom.
And that leads me to the time I was sitting on the pot in my apt. in Boston (close to Fenway Park) when the ceiling fell down on my head. Now, you may be able to fathom the affects that memories of lavoratories et al have had on me.

Comments PSS: Ah geeezzzzz, I almost forgot, another toilet encounter. As I mentioned last month, I was off to visit w/ the Mexican Navy. Well a week later it was the Japanese Navy, the tallship "Nippon Maru" was visiting our Port. Being a "volunteer," I had access to the ship and asked a female cadet if I could use the restroom. She did not speak English, but showed me that I was to turn a red knob counterclockwise to flush. I did so, but not much happened. So, I started pushing all the buttons and turning the knobs on the toilet itself. During this experimentation, I saw a little plastic piece jut out. It was a little bit dark and I didn't pay much attention to it. Suddenly the room felt warm, I thought it was just steam from the ship being released in the area. I gave up on my mission of a proper flush and opened the stall door. I looked down and found my left leg totally soaked. Apparently this toilet thought it was a bidet and sensed I was a Francophile and decided to have a go at me. I tried to indicate to the Japanese sailor that I needed a towel to dry off. First she brought me a small wet washcloth. I think she thought I'd had an accident. So then I mimicked drying myself off after a shower, and was able to get her to bring me a dry towel. When I was done with it, she seemed very reluctant to accept it back. I then had to walk down a gang-plank in front of a long queue of people waiting to visit the ship, with my wet leg. Ah, the joys of being a volunteer.

Without doubt the funniest part of the book is the post shoulder injury shower scene. I have now replaced the rather pedestrian phrase "shut up and sod off!" with the much more expressive "Soap my breasts!". It kills every argument stone dead and since I got the last words in, I always win.

Perhaps she meant "thanatology" which is the description or study of the phenomena of death and of psychological mechanisms for coping with them. This sounds much like marriage to me.

Comments mim, A picture in the shower would never work. He could always hide behind the foliage.

Mil, I would like thank you for allowing the publisher to "dumb down" the cover for the US version of your book. Heaven forbid we americans get caught looking at a book in which there are actual words and not just pictures.

Comments So That's why I have pictures of a sodden flaming red-haired chap in drippy clingy underwear...Yes, you are right, they didn't do anything to preserve your modesty. Why can't Margret just pounce on you when you are in the shower? You have no place to go and the $20 bar of "soap" made from scraping Zebra hooves would impair your reflexes, thus you would be unable to escape. Then she would have accomplished her mission and can go about making them into Christmas ornaments. I recounted the "tea with mussels" incident to my father. I really shouldn't have done it in a restaurant as he dissolved into paralyzing spasms of vociferous laughter. Poor man. I don't think he'll be able to look at mussels again.

Comments Usually I won't respond to other peoples comments, given they generally won't read them, but I found this one particularly amusing, so I hope you enjoy it to :P

In response to Katrina, of 04/08/03, Firstly, the generalisation of all Americans about being obsessed with rituals, which wasn't really a generalisation, but was immediately follwed up with (I'm a teenager Yes I sound older), promotes some of the purest irony. Teenagers trying to act mature? Heaven forbid you'd fall into that cultural pit-trap with your 197 IQ.

Secondly, according to www.dictionary.com,
::
No entry found for tiranthopolgy.
Did you mean drainplug?
::
So given that marriage is a moral connection, a covenant, and a drainplug, I'd like to firmly congratulate Mil on not flooding his kitchen floor /you idiot/ and enjoying his life free from plumbing problems caused by troublesome marriages.

Anyway, enough attacking/baiting/generally poking fun at Americans, a sport I assure you is also well renowned in Australia. Thanks for providing such a great read, I could have been doing so many more constructive things with my time, and I'd like to thank you for the opportunity not to do them.

Enjoy life,
Coman

Comments And did I get any sympathy for my headache? Did I buggery. I had walked all the way from home up to Royal Berks hospital. Through Royal Berks hospital. Around Royal Berks hospital. Through it again and then eventually to A&E. My legs were tired, I was hot and I had a wicked headache and yet *she* was the one that got all the sympathy and, most importantly, the drugs.

Comments Okay, 1. After reading the latest entry my partner and I have decided that we fear for your safety and would like to offer our guest room to hide. If you do not do this, we imagine you will end up on a plate with Pam telling her new husband: It is margarets husband.

and 2. Why I agree that we foreign partners (especially when coming from the north west of the continent) just MIGHT be slightly deranged, that we have strange languages and that we spend our lives scaring you guys to bits, I would like to note that you British Men are, plain and simple, bastards. Okay Okay, since you are always so kind to provide me with examles, I will do the same.

I broke my wrist (thanks for the sympathy aaaaaaa there) a week or so ago, and had the change to sample the lovely phenomenon called the British NHS hospital. Luckily, I survived. Now, as I am sitting waiting for the x-rays, a sweet nurse reports to me (I think it was me, my name has the most amazing ways to be pronounced) that my lovely, supporting, life saving partner has arrived. Elated I await his approach. He walks up to me, sits next to me, and I report that the dr has told me it is most likelu broken. He looks at me, and says in his most sympathetic voice: Well, if it is any consolation, I have got a headache.

See, bastards...the lot of you.

Comments Well I have a couple people to address numero uno. You fricked idiots sitting at your computer typing'duh why does my name matter' get a LIFE it is just an inquiry not a psychological crime! Number 2, in your faq the bit 'bout rituals? I have no objection myself to you not being married and all, but your generalization of all Americans about being obsessed with rituals (I am a teenager yes I know I sound older) disturbed me somewhat, anyhow marriage is not a ritual it is a moral connection, a covenant, and a tiranthopolgy. Don't bother looking that up, the definition will confuse you too, some people don't have 197 IQ's like me. Instead of ranting about your girlfriend then go out and do something like PLAY WITH YOUR KIDS?

Comments I spent 5 whole minutes writing possibly the best comment ever and now it's disappeared. Shame on you you heartless fiend, who by logical process of extrapolation is indeed aroused by lifestock, as his nervously guarded hints suggest. On an unrelated note, did you know that if you goo to www.ask.com and ask Jeeves how big his penis is then you get your site as the first result (I should point out that I was 14 years old, the age at which I started to read this site [I am now a stapping lad of 18, a change which was entirely the product of your website kind, benevolent sir] and achingly, mind-sodomisingly bored in the school computer lab with my equally unpopular, well, not friends exactly because that would rather contradict my point, but, hmmm, let's say 'the sort of people who hang around school computer labs during lesson time rather than expose themselves to the ill-advised fumblings of the educational system')? Some diabolical plot is bubbling away here, I'm sure of it. Feel free to try this O my disciples of the internet and report back tomorrow with your findings. You may even discover the size of the penis of the literary creation of a man who opennly admitted being sexually aroused by cricket, even if he is a fine writer of charming farce.
