Although I love the country as a second home and one that has treated me incredibly well, I would, as a concerned parent first – and latterly, of a one-year-old daughter who may attend an American elementary school like Sandy Hook in three years’ time – seriously consider deporting myself.

For that market, American companies send small sizes of everything. As an example, a bottle of dishwashing liquid is about half the size of ours and it's an American product. They pay twice as much as we do for a bottle of dish washing liquid half as large as ours.
England is the land of tea, but in the grocery store, most people there buy Lipton tea - again a smaller package that we have and it costs twice as much as ours. The other brand they by is Tips tea, a lower quality tea. They drink tea every day so they buy the cheapest they can get. When I would go there, I would buy better tea for them.
Most of their cleaning and waxing products are from the US. Most of their toothpaste is US made.
My son's house is full of US products in the kitchen and bathroom and that's not because he is from the US. It's because most of their products available are US products.
My bill from an ordinary restaurant for lunch for the wife, the grandchild and me was over $100.
Very few people have a dishwasher. Their fridges are small with a tiny freezer part.
Most of the houses in London were built in the Victorian era and those houses cannot be torn down. The plumbing pipes are on the outside of the house since these Victorian houses had no plumbing when they were built. There are no built-in closets. They have “wardrobes” - a piece of furniture in which to hang clothes.
Their walls are truly brick and the inside walls are plaster over the brick. Their wallpaper is very thick to cover the plaster.
People with money send their children to private school. My grandson has been in private school all his life and he's now 15. Muslims tend to not have much money in England.
There are definitely “classes” in England. If the parents have money, the child must go to a private school in order to have the proper English accent. Even I can tell which child has a proper English accent. That accent means a lot to determine if you advance in your job. You can also listen to a person and know which part of London the person came from.
Don’t let the door hit you where the Good Lord split you. Now, about those gangs of asian yobs...
Re-reading his article, almost every paragraph is an outright lie or a twisting of facts......put forth in a clever piece of writing that would do Saul Alinsky proud.
Note, also, how he describes himself as a "legal citizen" for the purposes of trying to fit his ass into our society and culture. He craftily DOESN'T mention that although he's a legal resident, he's NOT an American citizen.
This man is an alien influence in our midst, spreading his girly-man anti-gun message throughout the land. Everyone should mail a penny in an envelope tomorrow morning to CNN to pay for his way home. If CNN doesn't like it, let this faggy network donate the coins to charity.
Address your envelope to "CNN, 1 Time-Warner Center, New York, New York 10019" noting that this coin is for Morgan's trip home across the briny.
Consider this an official freep. This is what we're here for, not for just endless typing....am I correct?
Let's Go !!! Keep the pressure going !
My envelope with a scotch-taped penny enclosed is already sealed and is going out in tomorrow morning's mail !

Bye, bye! Do it NOW!
Failed show, failed personality. Oh, Piers, say it ain’t so, we hardly knew ya; but, get the hell out anyway. BTW, Haiti could probably use you(as a voodoo doll).
Don’t let the boarding gate hit you in the ass.
Marcella, I always dreamed of retiring on a Tropical Caribbean Island, but I believe the U.S. Virgin Islands are the only place down there where they drive on the “proper” side of the road. Maybe the Dominican Republic as well.
I can’t imagine getting in the passenger side of a car and having a steering wheel in front of me. Worse yet, I like Manual Shift cars. God didn’t intend for us to use our left hand to change gears. Well, maybe if the car was Muslim, but that’s a different subject altogether.
My Politics match my driving habits, Right is Right.
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and a let’s pray for a Happier New Year.

In England, when you want to take a driver's test, no matter your age, you have to take a class before you can take the driver's test. The test is very difficult.
My son is a director of documentary films, and after 30 yrs. in London, he's coming back here. He is with me now and took a Texas driver test this past Thursday. It lasted 20 minutes and at least 5 of that was the guy checking the car to see it all worked right.
The test was easy and the son had no problems with it during that 15 minute actual driving test. Afterward, the driver test guy asked the son how the driver's test in England differed from ours. The son told him how much more difficult that test was.
I've enjoyed him being here and he goes back Jan. 6. Then, will go to Florida next April and start making a film here. That may be his final move here, not going back to England. He is really looking forward to living in his home country again.
Due to the fact England and the rest of the world is in the toilet, at least he will be here if this country also goes down the toilet. Better to be here than there.
