It's our annual way of celebrating Independence Day! (Or as you Brits call it, "The Beginning Of The End.") If watching some gorgeous girls in tiny patriotic swimsuits get clobbered with pies doesn't make you think "God bless America," then are you even a true American?!?!

I'm right, to have taken that one as a joke? That's not to try and start anything, but to make sure what I took as a joke is meant to be a joke.
Yes indeed. I assumed 240+ years wasn't "too soon" to make a joke at the expense of the British Empire!
If if makes you feel better, the U.S. is definitely entering the "twilight stage" of our own empire, and I for one welcome our new Chinese overlords....
