... how the French seem to always challenge the Brits?

I guess their only lookin' for easy pickin's. [:D]

.....or challenging matches for a change! [:p]

Of course it could be that they are our historic enemies and you Americans and the Indian Alliance are historically our allies.

Besides, the Limeys are more fun to insult....

[:p][:D][8D]

Some of us have historical "beefs" with them red coats

I always was under the impression that just <u>everyone</u> challenges us, and I say this, I am fine with it. There's a German saying "viel Feind, viel Ehr", meaning "the more enemies, the more honour" and I think it applies here too. [^]

Besides, there must be someone to teach all you descendants of rotten empires, ill-fated rebellious republics, and decaying savage confederations the advantages of progress, order, civilization, taxation, and a good cup of tea. [8)]

Fear the King and pay your taxes! [}:)]

Why doesn't the sun ever set on the British Empire? God doesn't trust the Brits in the dark![:D] Pardon me if I am repeating an old saw.[:I]

<b>Fear the King and pay your taxes! </b>

This of course is not in dispute (at least not by <i>us</i>)The main bone of contention as it were is which King you should fear. The rightful King of the British Isles, Charles Stuart and His Most Christian Majesty, Louis of France, or those German sausagemaking upstarts...[8D]

"Why doesn't the sun ever set on the British Empire? God doesn't trust the Brits in the dark! Pardon me if I am repeating an old saw."

That was funny Cpl Driscoll Sir! [:D]

Philippe' Marquis de Roubaud is right about the King, Charles Stuart is the rightful king over those Redcoats, That fat German guy needs to go.[}:)]
