    From British Isles (rather obviously from my sig now...) and like most of the people posting in this thread so far. I wonder why?

    And if I guess how do I get my biscuit off you?

    I have no idea......however I've yet to meet an American that doesnt profess to come from another land. Strange.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    My stats teacher is named Mr. Indarawis and he is Egyptian. It took me three weeks to pronounce his name correctly. It may be a good thing there aren’t more Egyptians in the population to prevent us from butchering their names. The name is pronounced in-da-rous. Not exactly phonetic.
