Right now would be an opportune time to invade Britain, wouldn't it?
Do they even have oil?
Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not now that you've ruined the element of surprise!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Great. All we've got left is fear and ruthless efficiency.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
And the nice red uniforms.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I think Buffistas would govern Britain better than we appear to be able to at the moment. Go ahead and invade. I can give you maps. Not secret ones. Atlas of UK roads type maps. But still. Maps.
I really think one has to live in a place before letting his/her opinions to determine the course of the country.
Yes, probably true.
how can she vote, if she's not a citizen?
She's an Irish citizen. Northern Ireland's citizens can vote in Irish elections, and Irish people can vote in UK elections. People whine about it. As someone from an Irish family, I support it wholeheartedly, given the centuries during which Britain screwed the Irish over. (In fact, I think every Commonwealth country's citizens should have the right to vote here if they live here.)

Except for the possibly not entirely ideal climate, many of us would be quite pleased to consider one or more of the British Isles for the location of Buffista Island.

Irish people can vote in British elections, even though they have their own government?!? I had no idea. That's so weird. Is it only if they live in Britain, though? That at least makes a modicum of sense.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I probably have very, very distant cousins in Anglesey.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Well, Navajos can vote in US elections even though they have their own government. Not exactly analogous, I suppose.
