Naturalization wobbles

My women don't need their cars maintaining coz I always buy them a brand new one

You're my kind of man...

[elmcitymaven 9,712]

You're my kind of man...

Naff off, I saw him first.

Tell me more about my new car, Alan.

[Captain Oates 910]

You're my kind of man...

My shares are BP and Goldman - my car is Toyota

Has somebody got it in for me ?

[Captain Oates 910]

Well, as you would imagine, I am not the sort of brute who assumes he knows what you want.

Oh no, but I wouldn't take you to a kia showroom either

First I would ask you what kind of car - you would reply with 'blue' or 'red' etc so we would go to a 'red' car dealership to see what makes they have.

Perhaps you would want a soft top or the one with the bouquet already on the back seat and I would say "That's a very attractive feature"

No talk of ABS brakes or V6 engines or road holding while 4 wheel sliding through adverse camber bends on a wet road covered in slugs. NONE of that stuff

I would volunteer to pay extra for that special tinted glass that the cops can't see through to spot you on your iphone.

I know what a woman really wants and I would find those little touches like reversing sensors but not ones that go grrr in a low tone - I would have em changed so they make a little tweeting noise like sky larks in a meadow when you got too close to that lamp post behind you

You get the picture. Now where can you find a 22 year old male model who can think like that ?

No, you're practically perfect in every way.

But it has to be a V8, sorry.

But... but... I am a girl! The girliest!

practically !!!! I have never been so insulated in my life !(grant available). Come on and go the extra mile - I am Bill clinton and you are Monika - now close your eyes and give it some welly !!!

practically indeed.

That's not what the owl says. She says you chew beetlenuts too and scratch your rump when you get up on a morning.

No, that's what she does. I am awakened by rosy-fingered dawn whilst dressed in my finest silk night clothes. I stretch daintily, and bluebirds fly to remove my peignoir. Fluffy bunnies bring me my coffee and breakfast of berries and clotted cream. It's all adorable.

hum yes that's all good....VERY good

Prince George : Marry? Never! I'm a gay bachelor, Blackadder, I'm a roarer, a rogerer, a gorger and a puker! I can't marry, I'm young, I'm firm buttocked, I'm...

Blackadder : Broke?

Prince George : Well, yes, I suppose so.

Blackadder : And don't forget sir, that the modern church smiles on roaring and gorging within wedlock, and indeed rogering is keenly encouraged.

Prince George : And the puking?

Blackadder : Mm. I believe still very much down to the conscience of the individual church-goer.

Blackadder : Caroline of Brunswick is the only available princess in Europe.

Baldrick : And what's wrong with her?

Blackadder : Get more coffee! It's horrid! Change it! Take me roughly from behind! No, not like that, like this! Trousers off! Tackle out! Walk the dog! Where's my presents!

Baldrick : All right! Which one do you want me to do first?

Blackadder : No, no that's what Caroline's like. She is famous for having the worst personality in Germany, and as you can imagine, that's up against some pretty stiff competition.

But I do think there's a conflict of interest in being a citizen of two countries. It's an interesting topic...where does the allegiance fall? How can one really claim loyalty and the like to two different countries at the same time?

I guess it's all in what you're comfortable with. I was born and spent the first part of my life in the UK. My parents moved us to Canada and I became a citizen of that country not long after my first marriage (to a Canadian). I feel a strong allegiance to both countries. Kind of like having two parents. You don't have to choose allegiance and loyalty between one or the other parent. The UK and Canada and the US are allies..... they (for the most part) have the same policies. Now, should one of those countries' leaders suddenly lose their mind and take up with Osama bin Laden or some other nutbar then the choice would obviously be quite easy.

I got drunk with Al Gore so I have mucho real world experience.

Oh, I HAVE to hear THAT story.

[elmcitymaven 9,712]

Oh, I HAVE to hear THAT story.

It's in OT somewhere.

I think any Brit who takes US nationality and expresses a willingness to bomb the UK, should have their UK passports cancelled immediately

If I were an American, I wouldn't want that kind of new citizen

If they will switch once, they will switch twice

I would rather have a new citizen who has fond thoughts of his country of birth and would be very reluctant to go and kill his friends/relatives/schoolfriends because that is normal

Anyone who would do that gladly is a psychopath and a turncoat anyway and not to be trusted

That's being real and that's getting away from all this pie in the sky theory
