The irony is not lost that 2 guys not from England proper are rooting for the day the Yanks declared independence from Mother England.

And here I thought you were loyal English subjects!

Thanks for the well wishes. I fell asleep whilst listening to fireworks and gunfire from the nearby hood.

Wow.. Now hold on a minute stratman, while I do love my English neighbours,
lets not get too far ahead of yourself with that big word loyal, especially now that the 12th is nearly apron us.

Problems Problem, now where did I put my Union jack?

I think you need to get out more and stop watching the darn TV, its doing your head in.
I was referring of course to the glorious twelfth.. Orange day

My hometown football team's colors are orange and brown though there is nary an Englishman on the team.

What do you do to celebrate your 12th?

I dont but our Northern neighbours do big time, they march around most towns in Northern Ireland
on this day every year, the Glorious Twelfth as its know.

Its to Celebrate William of Orange the famous Dutch Prince for his Victory on that day in July of 1690
when the Protestants beat the crap out of the Catholics; he later became King William III.

So ends the history lessons..

This should keep stratman amused for a while..

Thank you for the reading.

This looks like a surefire way to stir up trouble in Northern Ireland. Or are divisions pretty much settled between the sides?

I really do not know what the situation is, so this is a serious question instead of my previous joking around.

Simple answer...

Do Democrats and Republicans agree on even one fifth of anything?

Here endeth the lesson...
