See, Mr Waylander, until you understand about Morris dancing, you cannot hope to understand the English. It is the secret of their national greatness. A nation that can cope with Morris dancing is unconquerable

Brilliant - Some other things they have trouble understanding - repeating it over and over doesn't make you 'greatest nation on earth', you don't need to be at war with someone or something to win votes, and that winning an American only, national competition does not make you 'world champion'.

Whats the the Potter angst? - they are hokey KIDS books.

We prefer to call it "The Stick and Bucket Dance".

Yea I have seen them. Nothing original between them. I'de put them at about the same level as Jurasic Park 2 and 3. Just gets repetative.

Sorry mate but I'm not one to like a movie just becouse of all the hype it has and lunchboxes it sells.

Well, pterry is writing for a more mature audience. (Who also will mostly like Harry P). I imagine the more sophisticated of the Harry P fans will move on to pTerry in a few years.

Mostly mature, but some of his books are written specifically for kids. I still read them, though.
