Electric soup was a beverage beloved of the lower orders in Glasgow. It was prepared by filtering coal gas through a pint of milk. Sounds even worse than sangria! |

Perhaps our American friends could issue a special note (bill) bearing the portrait of our Queen, Elizabeth II, to commemorate her 90th birhday? All right, she´s not an American but I´m sure she would like to be. You could make her an honorary citizen. After all, we are your closest allies. |
Sure. Her image could go on the back of the one dollar bill --- opposite George Washington, who graces the bill's front. |

Would any Brit want to be an American? I think I'll stay here, thanks. |

I think it would be more accurate to say she would like it if the crown still owned America. |

I thought you were pulling my leg so I did a search for Electric Soup. It sounds revolting. |
