So what idiot did that? And for what reason? Surely if one is being investigated then one should know what the charges are and who complained. Unless you know and are keeping that quiet. Col

Sorry to deflate your inflated ego love, but you don't even register as an itch. Col

I'm not familiar with 'goggle' my dear. Could you explain please? A new website perhaps? Col

Sorry dear, you're wrong again, as usual. Col

When we see news reports of some hurricane or tornado in the USA, there is always one glaring thing. Most of the destroyed houses are built of wood. If Americans are daft enough to live in tornado alley - wouldn't brick built properties be a better bet? Col

So why mention it?

You're right, I don't watch any of those shows. I think at least one has that gold digger Markel in it, I'd rather watch paint dry. Col

Oh right, is that all? I thought it was something serious. BTW, I know what 'kvetch' means. I don't need you to explain when you use less common words. Col

Can you explain? What are you talking about? Col

I preferred 'Laramie'. The bloke who played Jess Harper went on to play Dr Bracket in CHiPS.

Neither can I. I never said there was.

As usual. 'Supermod' is exempt. I was quite happy reminiscing about old TV shows until supermod put her oar in, then suddenly you take her side. It's so obvious.

And how long did it take you to think of your petty, pathetic sniping reply? Is that really the best you can do?

The word 'we' can refer to any number above one. I obviously cannot speak for the whole population of the UK. One of my favourite US TV programmes was 77 Sunset Strip, others are The Whirlybirds and Car 54 Where are You. Actually, I was never a fan of 'Gunsmoke', James Arness never seemed right...

No, we only get the US television shows that have loads of shooting and dead people. Tax evasion is too tame for export. Anyway, why bother with someone who was active over 100 years ago. By her own admission, we have a real one here.

No, you're wrong, it doesn't work that way in the UK. Obviously it does in the USA- so given that you have paid tax owed only after being threatened with a gun and the tax people have come after you with guns, then you must have attempted to evade paying taxes but got caught out. Is tax evasion...

I was referring to the fact that every American in films or on TV that eats a meal, only uses a fork. The combination of a knife and fork is alien. I'm afraid we don't have Texas style beef or ribs in Essex. Sounds ghastly. Col

Gosh, I didn't realise things were that bad in the USA regarding tax collection. We all know that Americans are fairly uncivilised, for example, struggling with the use of English like changing words so people understand them, or having problems understanding the use of a knife and fork. But...

In America, can you actually dictate where your tax dollars are spent? Or actually withhold payment? You have said in the past that you were robbed by paying tax. Why is it robbery? Surely every earner pays tax, why do you object? Governments money (tax) will sometimes be spent on projects we...

Not in the UK.
