Sorry to moan....

.....but does everyone in the fecking work think that London *IS* England? For example, Tom Clancy, every time he mentions England/Britain, he goes nowhere outside London. Second Example, Puff Daddy at the EVMA in Barcelona, goes through several countries, "Is USA in da house, Is France in da house, Is Germany in da house....Is London in the house!" No mention of England/Britain anywhere. I could have strangled him! OK OK its the capital, but if every movie made in hollywood was set in Washington and no mention to the rest of the states, their would soon be an uprising of people saying, "There is more to the US than Washington" I don't get it. Another story, My driving instructor was on the west coast US in an airport when someone (american) came up and asked him, "So where abouts are you from, Australia?" So he said "No, Well, do you know Liverpool or Manchester?" She replied "No" Fair enough he thought and said "Well do you know england?" Assuming she'd know that much and he could narrow it down from there. She said "No". So he said "What about the UK?", she said "Oh yeah i've heared of that somewhere, near London isn't it?" DID YOU GUYS GET TAUGHT ANYTHING AT SCHOOL! There is only a limited amount of American history compared to other countries, and the majority of that is civil wars and the war of independance. Who was the war of independance against FFSake!!? Grrrrr...... Sorry if this offends anyone, ive had a hard day.
We brought out this new and very similar version of our expensive software because the old version was......old....It's a good enough excuse for Microsoft so its fine for us.

Remember that the UK and other "Small" countries created the societies we live in today. The fact that we made a lot of mess is another thing, the US being a big mess that we helped create. Not to mention India, Northern Ireland, most of africa etc... OK we made a mess, but don't complain because America is about to mess everything up via Iraq.

Woohoo...I have a supporter. Now, as for the motion, that London be discharged from the UK and we have a new government based in a city with a bit more culture, like Liverpool or Newcastle. (At least if Liverpool was capital we'd get broadband!)

I'm going to rephrase that to: .....but does everyone in the fecking work think that Toronto *IS* Canada? Well, Toronto and Vancouver. And if they can figure out that it's not, then they'll assume Toronto's the captial. (technically, it is the captial of Ontario, but not the whole frelling country). I knew someone who wants to take a taxi from Edmonton to Winnipeg (~1,300 km) :omg:. I told him that it wasn't poossible. "But they look so close on the map!!" was his response. :grrrr: That's why I ramble so much. If you're short and quotable, there's a much greater danger of ending up in a sig.

Because the capital city is not the only city in most countries. I also assume that the Capital is not the best city in the country. For example IMHO Istanbul is a much nicer city that Anchara (sp?) in Turkey, yet the latter is the capital.
