[QUOTE]Originally posted by Wraith: [QB] Well, the jokes were mildly amusing the first time you hear them. Unfortunately that was at least 5 years ago. I have no problem taking the piss out of the French, but it's far more amusing to do it about things that are relevant than dragging up jokes from WW2. Or the Napoleonic wars in some cases. Surrendering French jokes are especially unfunny when Americans do them, for obvious reasons. [QUOTE] Frankly, if the US had a large border with Germany in the late 30's they would have rolled right over us given our state of preparedness. [/QUOTE]Doubtful; the US army was pitifully poorly prepared in the late 1930s. Although they didn't really expect to fight a major land war. [QUOTE]I can drive 1000 miles in any direction and most people still speak English. [/QUOTE]Yes, but so could I, probably. Although any direction would have to be substituted for 'East', owing to a distinct lack of 1000 mile stretches of land to the west of the UK... [/QB][/QUOTE]
