Re: They speak english in london made me laugh..
Stupidity is evident everywhere..................
A couple of weeks ago while talking to a group of England fans in the pub they all asked me why I didn't stand up for the National anthem, when I told them I didn't feel in a nationalistic mood, the conversation started to get all serious and eventually I told them I was born in Iran............................
their response?
"You don't look like a terrorist"
"Is Bin Laden your mate then?"
Yeah, because Bin Laden is A; the only "terrorist" in the world, and B; he is Iranian!!

some would say the yanks only joined ww2 to get over the great depression because as we all know war is good for a recession it creates jobs and deflects attention from other things.

Did anyone see bush on the news the other night referring to the LA bushfires 
"I wish i could get up thar and change them darn winds around and stop em from blowing this way"
WTF!!!
The clip then turned to the governor of california giving more 'wise' words - the one and only last action hero Arnie!!! You couldn't make it up
What hope do the yanks have???

Dog & Bone = Phone
Barnet fair = Hair
Apples & pears = Chairs
Jack & Danny = Fanny
Whistle & Flute = Suit
Tom & Dick = Sick
Deep Sea Diver = Fiver
Ruby Murrey = Curry
Just a few slang words that I know that Londoners like to say to confuse us foreigners, of course I would love to know more, if anybody can add to it.
