Jade...she reminds me of the Child Catcher from "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang". I think it's the nose. Don't care for the 12' fake eyelashes. Can't stand the songs she makes either.

The GEICO cavemen would never ship out unwanted British white kids. They have lived with and understand oppression.

Cornelius: [reading from the sacred scrolls of the apes] Beware the beast Man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him; drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.

hmmmmm....

Speaking of insurance....Progressive Insurance is believe it, or not, owned by one of the most dangerous of all the Progressives.

Hey, here's an idea. Let's pay people to sit around and breed and consume stuff and not work. That'll help global warming, right?

Didn't read the story...I admit I've pretty much been skipping Greenwolf's stuff for a while now, as it had become the same tired note, over and over.

The title did give me a laugh, however. Implication being, "down with progress".

That's right, let's get the U.S. backing up like a truck. Maybe we can even get one of them beeping alarms on it when we're backing it up.

I lived in close proximity to a diary which operated 24 hours a day.

After about 3 years, the diary bought a couple of new bobcats (w/the gaddam reverse warning beeper). The workers loved operating those things at 3 am.

Thread jacking Pacman?

Maybe you should read the article. After all you might be one of those kids the Brits shipped off as cheap labor.

Yeah they were.

"programs that operated between the early 19th century and 1967."

1800's to 1967.

Since Queen Victoria ruled from 1830-1901, and she has been defined as a conservative, where do you get that "progressives" are behind this?

"British empire was built on trade and on the need to defend it against other Europeans. The idea of creating new colonies was very unpopular after the loss of American states, but after 1830 it became again a topic of importance."

Hmmm, trade, defense, growth...

Sounds like the conservative mantra flowing around now to me.

You'll have to forgive greenwolf... since it wasn't in cartoon form, he has a bit of trouble understanding it.

I suppose we should be grateful he's trying to move from just posting pretty pictures.

Queen of England running the British government? R U serious? Maybe you just need to brush up on your history.

Picture this...Brit progressive government takes children from families and ships them out of country to solve a government problem in the UK. Nothing conservative about that.
