I suspect the creator of the first one was being lazy, referring to 'Britain' in 1534, but there is a definite symmetry in that Scotland and Ireland were both determined to keep what they had.
Also, after the English Reformation, 100+ years of burning at the stake and general persecution of people holding differing views, and then a civil war. Well that's something to look forward to......

Stan Goldman has to admit that Houston was the better team. Apparently the 2010s are the only decade in which the Yankees have failed to make the World Series since the 1910s.
I will be cheering for the Nationals, because they started life as the Montreal Expos, whom I grew up watching...

I have been down with a cold again. But now I have discovered why for men it always is a life and death fight.

Princess Leia would seize the plans of the virus, and bring them with her, so that we can fight it, but she seems to be occupied for the moment!
So, hold on!

If you visit one of Dr L Skywalker's clinics, he will insert a suppository in your exhaust port which will seek out and destroy your man flu virus

Careful! The suppository must be aimed to the exhaust port by a highspeed run through a canyon. If the exhaust port is missed, and the suppository passes over the port, a more sensitive organ may be severly hit!
That's why you better await Leia, she knows how to do it the soft way!

I think that beard has been recycled 
I'm a big fan of Darwin. Apart from his epoch-making work, he just seems to have been a thoroughly nice man,
a good - if slightly absent-minded - husband and father, quite willing to admit to his own doubts and uncertainties,
not a hint of arrogance ... quite unlike the usual impression I get of geniuses.

I remember reading an account of Emma Darwin hearing loud noises coming from Charles’ study.. she rushed in to find him leaning over a tray of soil, shouting his head off. He explained he was bawling at earthworms, to see if they would react to sounds. Something about that combination of eccentricity, unselfconsciousness and empirical rigour always struck me as admirable. How the worms felt about it is not recorded.. no doubt they complained to their union representative
