Hi guys, what's up, I am currently in an US Air Force base in England, with my sister. Why am I in England? Because my Sister is preagnant and her husband is in basic training so I'm here to look after her while he's away. England looks very nice so far. That's about it, later.

People say I'm opinionated and I'm a jerk...but what about you? You strut around here with a chip on your shoulder the size of Texas.

You think your posts will just make people stop what they're doing and appease you.

You were already told once to stop acting like a mod, yet here you are, doing the prick thing again.

Plenty of other people on here make posts like Ericus did, and no one complains, so why must you go out of your way to be an absolute jerk? Seriously.

He hasn't harmed anyone, nor has he taken away from your experience on the boards here.

Seriously, quit being a jerk!

And Ericus, enjoy your visit.

Hmm, I don't think I can make it, but thanks for the offer.

And about Lord Zarak's post, I didn't take any offense.

Thanks for the warning about the TF drought, at least I got all the Transformers I wanted beforehand, the only Transformer I'm missing is leader Brawl. I won't even mention U.S. Masterpiece Starscream, guess I just did. Anyway, thanks for the greeting.

It's Dark Zarak, and I actually was mad and being a dick, for which I apologize.


I've been given a lot to think about in regards to my posting style.

I had a blast in England. I got a pretty good view of the country and the cities.

I don't know where you are, but find some castles. The ruins are great and they seem to be everywhere. The Tudor style castle have a lot of reenactments and were fun.

It's a different culture yet so similar to our own, I had a blast.

What city are you in or near?

I've always wanted to see London. I'm not sure why, but I have. I guess it's because of the shows and pictures I've seen. Although my dad and I did have a hilarious encounter here at the hospital...

(This is word for word, and for those of you not in the know: Torch= light/lighter, Fag= Cigarette (doesn't carry the derogatory meaning, no offense intended.)

So my dad and I are waiting for my mom outside of the E.R. and we hear: (in a really, really thick Cockney accent) "E'scuse me. 'Allo?" (We thought he was talking to someone else, honestly.)

"'ey! 'ey you! Yeah, you in the wheelie!" (which my dad finally figured out he was talking to us. My dad's in a wheelchair.)

My dad turns around and says "Me?"

"Yeah, gov'nah!" (I kid you not, dad and I started laughing. I mean he was stereotypical Brit.)

He walks over and says "I gotta ask. You got a torch and a fag?" (My dad turns snow white at this point)

"Uh sir...I think you might have us confused. I'm his father..."

The guy laughs his head off and said "Oh you Americans. You make me laugh me arse off. A torch is a lighter, a fag is a cigarette. Although I'm sure you two would make a lovely couple." (All three of us bust out laughing at this point and dad hands him a cigarette and the lighter)

He introduced himself, we started talking, and asked him what on Earth would bring him to Meadville and he said "You evah see London?" Dad said no, but that we wanted to, and the guy's face went completely straight and he said "Wot the 'ell for? The fog?" and he's just laughing his head off.

Dad went through the whole "Oh it's so beautiful, saw the pics, videos" blah, blah, blah.

The guy laughed again and said "Movies. They make me laugh. There's a few things to know about Ol' Foggy London Town...
A.) It sucks. (we busted out laughing.)
B.) It's foggy. I mean it's like a snowglobe, as you call 'em, filled wit smoke. You can't even see it on a good day." (we busted out laughing again...)
C.) It's cold! This town 'ere is like paradise compared to London. Not a lot of people, not a lot of bad weather, and it's cheapah. (dad and I just looked at each other with a grin.)

He then spent the next twenty minutes going over his problems with the town (expense being a legitimate and quite large one...expensive city! O_o)

He couldn't have been nicer or funnier though. Dad and I still want to go and see it, but we've lowered our expectations a tad, so we're not completely overwhelmed when we get over there and find ourselves completely dismayed.

...it must be pretty bad if he thought Meadville was paradise. Yuck. I grew up there, and I can tell you...it's one of the lower levels of Hell.

We spent our last three days of our Vacationmoon in London. They were going through an unseasonable heatwave (Aug 2005). IT was hot and our room had no AC, it was murder.

So anyway, we were out from dawn to dusk, so not to go back to the room.

I recommend, that you.

A) Take a doubledecker tourbus tour.
B) See the Modern Art museum
C) Go to the Sherlock Holmes museum. (It's on Baker st)
D) Don't go to Madam Tudor's Wax museum
E) Tour the Tower of London and then take the tour across the bridge
F) There's a cheesy haunted tour called, "The Terror of London", it's bad, like real cheesy, but we met Neil Patrick Harris(Doogie Houser) there
G) Grab some fish 'n Chips
H) Frolic through Hyde Park and take a picture with Peter Pan

Yep, that's it.

Yeah, I'm actually scared about the relative lack of rainfall this year.
It's even been sunny at the weekends. It's never sunny when people are off of work here. Until now...

:o

Yeah, London feels like 3 times warmer than anyplace up here. Yay for smog blanket insulation.

Shame it makes your snot grey, though.
