Dear Sasha,
Whew - close call. For a minute, I was worried that I'd have to develop a British accent, spell those nouns ending with an -or as -our instead (which would have involved a lot of extra labour,) and started calling my hood, a bonnet, my trunk, a boot, and trucks, lorries.
Regards,
Yankee Doodle Dandy John |

True. But on the upside, at least there wouldn't be any need for mind-numbing TOEFL classes anymore either... |

Regardless of the undeniable up side to loss of US independence, I don't reckon you'd really want the hassle, wudja?
I mean, consider the current political, economic, and social situation....
and you thought a few thugs throwing some rocks in Tottenham was the beginning of the end of the world! |
