Lets Stop George Bush before he Destroys the Whole Planet Earth.

So you think that Indians spend all day singing & dancing?

Of course we do...

better than running around all day shooting each other

...but with only bows, arrows, and spears, we can't wreak too much havok

Bonnie & Clyde, Dillinger, St Valentines Day Massacre, The Lone Ranger etc. all fiction?

Not at all...don't let 'em lie to you, Rich. Why just the other day, my dear ol' Ma and her stage coach were saved from an unfriendly band of heathen savages by an unknown masked man. But the silver bullet he left behind can only mean one thing...

an unfriendly band of heathen savages

that'll be the FBI. From what we see, its best not to upset them too much either. They make the KGB seem like ameteurs

Technically, the FBI doesn't amout to much more than glorified State Troopers. The NSA is the one to watch for...


EDIT:
oops! Better watch it. This kind of conversation will bring the wackos out of the woodwork

It must have been that crumpet I had this morning

Does your wife know?

 

[dan-cat]

Does your wife know?

Yes, she was the one who prepared it for me, with lots of butter

 

[Rich]

You refer to hot totty as it and your wife prepared it for you
does she have a sister by the way?

Well a crumpet is a tasty breakfast item isn't it

 

[Rich]

Well a crumpet is a tasty breakfast item isn't it

Well it could be, crumpet does have two meanings here

Not that I am an expert, but the Crumpets I have had were pretty much what we would call a pancake.
Now fill my plate with some English bacon (not streaky), black pudding and eggs, I am there!

 

[Rich]

Nah, nothing like a pancake

 

[FoFa]

Like I said, the ones I have had. I would say they were pretty indistiguishable from a pancake. Consistancy was just a tad different, depending on who makes your pancakes (Crumpets were a tad more rubbery).

If you had a pancake as thick as a crumpet then the pancake wasn't cooked properly, anyway crumpets are nearly back in season

In regard to the Perry Mason sub-thread

Perhaps, but then the guy he was defending was never guilty, was he? Otherwise the show would have been over too quickly.

My dear departed Mum was a Raymond Burr fan, watched all of the old Black and White episodes. ONCE and ONCE ONLY, Perry defended a guy who was guilty. Per American guidelines, he assured that the criminal's rights were not violated and he made sure the police dotted all the i's and crossed all the t's. But at the end, Lt. Tragg figured it out. Perry was still there to assure no rights violation, but the baddie got caught. I don't recall whether Perry took the guy's money anyway.

Hmm... I believe you are using the word 'crumpet' in the same way we sometimes use the term 'cupcake' - though we also have the word 'strumpet' that seems to more closely fit the context you were using earlier.

Buttered cupcakes are really lots of fun, but washing up afterwards is much trickier than if you use something more water soluble than butter.

 

[The_Doc_Man]

Given the cultural shock brought about by 9/11, Americans are probably at least partly responsible for allowing the bombing of Iraq and several other types of bombing. Now ask us if we feel remorse. While you are at it, ask Israel if they have remorse over the bombing of Lebanon.

Regret? Yes. Remorse, probably not as much. Do it again? Don't honestly know. Some wake-up calls have very negative effects. 9/11 was one of the more powerful wake-up calls.

Will we stop it? Eventually we will. Remember, though, we had 10 years of weapons production to use up. Gotta replace all the bombs with new ones, don't you know? But right now, it ticks you off so much that we might do it some more just to yank your chain.

OK, googling Crumpets images, these are more what I have had, but the other images look like exactly what I would call an English Muffin.
