Yeah, just think of it as a 360-degree viewable episode of Baywatch, without the commercials.

Big difference: I don't have to watch them trying to act.

LOL

Remember its a "Win win situation." LOL

For crying out loud. Anything to bash the U.S.?

Actually those two counties should "work" with the UK:

The above are just a few snippets.

I have a whole collection that takes up a vast amount of space on my hard drive.

I add to it on a daily basis.

I used mmany excerpts from "official" sources to show its just not the UK media that engages in such blatant horn-blowing.

Why would any nation choose the U.S. for anything?

When any and all things from the UK are the "world's most advanced".

And especially when the U.S. is repeatedly "shaken and shocked" by anything British.

It doesnt make sense to me.

What in the world is the UK even doing in the U.S.-led JSF(F-35) program?

Again it doesnt make sense to me.

They talk about U.S. "arrogance".

LOL

If the U.S. proclaimed the "world's most advanced" or "best" in anything they would be vilified in the world media for months on end.

Not to mention attacked on every discussion board on the Net.

The UK does it on a daily basis. But not a peep.

Talk about your double standards.

Im guessing its because the rest of the world is deathly afraid of pissing off the Brits and having to confront the "world's most advanced" country.

But of course Im just "jealous". LOL

All i wanted to say that they could build acc to their needs & specs.

So much the better

Just make sure HRH doesn't observe your observations.

If I go by history, I will be sitting at the beach with mirror sunglasses watching #1 Daughter (kids can be such chick magnets) while HRH of House is busy abusing my credit cards.

Just so long as everybody completes their assigned duties

Better not be making fun of my subs again. Just because they burn, can't submerge very deep and are constantly flooding doesn't mean they aren't useful.

There are plenty of situations up here in the great north where having your sub catch fire is an asset. What if they get stuck in artic pass and need a heater or a stove? Its called 'multi-use' people. Don't hate just because your subs can't burn.

Well, they were built in the world's most advanced shipyard at Glasgow.

PubFather · 05-03-2006, 12:03 PM

Beer?? you lilly-livered Canuck. The only drink for fine vessels like these are fine single malts... and absolutely no damn ice... lol.. heretics...

dave angel · 05-03-2006, 12:14 PM

beer in the fridge? FFS!, savage colonials - they have supped with the devil and his name is cold p1ss that tastes of fire-retardent chemicals!

don't speak of what you don't know, Glasgow is the worlds most advanced city, its architecture is the worlds most advanced, its women are the worlds most advanced - in that at the age of 12 they look legal and and at the age of 25 they look dead - even Glasgow's death statistics are the worlds most advanced, every fcuker here dies at 45 of heart disease, asbestos poisoning and lung cancer.

foul rebelion and outragous comments by those not fit iron the tracksuits of our city's great citizenry, i've half a mind to send a gunboat and burn down your hovels.

hurrumph, rustle rustle...
