long ride, woot!

Beautiful day for a bike ride! 9.8 miles, from Prosperity down to Lake Accotink Park and back. More later.

Mel Gibson must (sadly) count twice, as an American who pretands to be an Australian and pretends to be Scottish (in Braveheart), kicking English butt (in BH and the Patriot) wherever he goes...

I always hoped the director's cut of The Patriot would feature an alternate ending, when Mel Gibson is captured, drawn and quartered *again*, and Tom Wilkinson watches as he is burned at the stake (or something). Guaranteed to sell thousands of copies in the UK and to British reanactors in the US. :-)

Je suis un soldat d'Angleterre, main avec un coeur d'Ecosse.

Quelle surprise...

Un Ecosse qui parle francais...

[winterbadger]

C'est un [consequence] de la alliance vielle...

C'est vraiment...

De la rose et le crux?

[winterbadger]

Eh, de la rose et le croix, peut etre, mais j'ai pense de l'Ecosse et la France. Que dans l'Ecosse ils appelannt "the Auld Alliance".

I have clearly exhausted my command of French at this point, especially since I've said crux and not croix, as I should have known.

But again, impressive ;)

(Good to know I can still read it, though).

Oh, and...
