Best Bomber of ww2

Also in 1776. My family line is full of guerillas that made a hobby out of "chasing Tories". But it's nice to know that our countries have evolved, so to speak.

70% tax?!?!?! Good God man! So if you had less taxes, your fuel prices would probably be similar to ours.

Or even less than yours. We get our oil cheaper than America. I think when US was at $50 a barrel - Britain was at $46.

In 1776 we didn't invade, there was no invasion at all. We just got kicked out of somewhere we went in the 1600s...that's mean...

 

[evangilder]

No invasion per se, but there were alot of troops already here. Although I do find it interesting to note that the "shot heard round the world" in history books has changed a bit. I was always taught that it was the British who fired the first shot. I collect antique books and one of the old book I have, from the 1800s said that it was never clear who fired the first shot and it was highly likely that one of the guns of the irregulars accidently discharged, which set off the chain reaction.

It's good that the Brits and the Americans get along well today, otherwise I would be in terrible shape. I have English, Scottish and Irish ancestry, sprinkled with some Dutch, Swiss and Cherokee. So I would be at war with myself as a yank!

To solve all the old international problems, we could just have stood you there to beat yourself up.

 

[evangilder]

Too funny!

Not really, then we can invade America and enjoy their cheap petrol prices...

Umm, I think you Brits tried that before...

They are cheaper than yours, but they have climber dramatically, especially here in California where it is considerably higher than the national average.

I heard somewhere it costs you the same for a gallon as it does us for a lire Thats just not fair.

 

[evangilder]

I think that's about right. But where do those tax dollars go?

 

[Nonskimmer]

Well now that's the big mystery, isn't it?

 

[cheddar cheese]

Looks like a case for Inspector Clouseau, in the next Pink Panther film

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

you see this doesn't happen when you use red diesil.............

 

[cheddar cheese]

No, but you do get nicked if youre caught and you have to drive a diesel, which isnt good.

 

[plan_D]

Tax dollars? What tax dollars? That would be confusing if they taxed us in dollars...

And our tax is going to the nice Iraqis, of course.

He-111 H6 , it could carry 4000kg of bombs and looks nice too

 

[evangilder]

Whoops, good point, tax funds is what I should have said.

 

[cheddar cheese]

He-111 H6 , it could carry 4000kg of bombs and looks nice too

You crazy?!

 

[Nonskimmer]

It may not have been anything like the best, but it did look sorta cool. 8)

 

[cheddar cheese]

It looked very cool i think 8)

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

yeah she was good looking................

 

[Lightning Guy]

No way should any version of the He-111 be considered in this conversation.

And don't forget that tax pounds that go towards socialized health care.
