mechanic... do you or don't you think that the US will have to destroy the next euro tyrant?

lazs

I know that the US was critical in destroying the last one so if that situation should repeat itself, my first thoughts would be Yes, we would need your help.

although we would probably all die of food posioning first wouldnt you think?

iirc, Long John Silver's uses an Alaskan fish that is odorless & tasteless.

um whats wrong with alaskan fish? nothing besides it cost more and taste better,,i dont care what anyone says,,i had alaskan halibit and local halibit,,alaskan is twice as tasty and twice as fresh. and why does it cost more? because its better,, same with alaskan salmon,,the local stuff here will allmost make you sick it taste so gross,,now when my freinds come down from aslaska with salmon,,yum yum,,somthing about being rasied in cold water up there,,makes the meat taste that much better

Mechanic - you really should try that pizza restaurant in High Wycombe - park in the big car park by the bus station, then walk back into town and it's on the right in that street.

Pizza Express?

love it, take the misses there regularly

American Hot is by far the tastiest pizza.

Pepperoni and hot jalepenoes. good beer also.

Lazs I think you might find that we were the only guys that stood up to the last Euro mega tyrant intialy. You lot only joined in three years later! So please don't take all the credit for sorting out that funny Austrian corporal.

Of course none of us stood up to Milosovich properly to all our eternal shame. ( I believe he was Europes last mini tyrant ) Well until it was too late anyway. planes on their own don't count as you know troops on the ground are what matters.

As for our greasy breakfasts you havent had a proper one as yet by the sounds of it. And Fish and chips is an institution not like your bland, everywhere you go it tastes the same fast food gunk! lollol

It is surprising when you really have a look... 5 new A330 Tankers, 737 Wedgetail AEW, $1bn for 12 new MRH-90 troop lift helicopters, new airborne cruise missile system etc etc...

mechanic... Where did I give the US sole credit for winning WWII... we stayed out to let you savages sort out your latest mega slaughter till it spilled over to us and then we finished it.

and.... I find it amusing that someone from the land of pudding and boiled chicken is complaining about US pizza being bland.

I didn't find one good mexican resteraunt in england either.
