At the risk of offending Green Witch, I find it necessary to post yet another thing British.

We have baseball. What do they play?

Cricket.

That really is beyond sad.

I think the attraction has something to do with the paddles - they're a nation addicted to spankings. (this will be my only British submission)

Whoever ignored YOU on The Brit Thread, gus?

Certainly not me...

Everyone is welcome on OUR thread, it's not exclusively British... I would rather it was called The Colonial Thread.

You are all welcome to pop in for tea and crumpets!

Rule Brittania!

Of course you are all welcome!

You can even bring along the contestants for next year's Miss America 2007, if you like.

The one of the left is my ex-wife! Of course, that was back when she still looked good in a bikini. Before she gained all the weight.
