I started off the day making my British spouse listen to all the classic anthems about America.  :swiss:
"I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off."
I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

A moment's silence please for Mr Garbon 2.

I've been spared that, but the flag is up and I'm making potato salad.  :swiss:

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

From your link:

Quotepotato salad most likely originated from recipes brought to the U.S. by way of German and European immigrants

I like the way Wikipedia subtly digs the Germans for not being Europeans.
