To the citizens of the United States of America from Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II:
In light of your immediate failure to financially manage yourselves and also in recent years your tendency to elect incompetent Presidents of the USA and therefore not able to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately. (You should look up 'revocation' in the Oxford English Dictionary.)
Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths, and territories (except Kansas , which she does not fancy).
Your new Prime Minister, David Cameron, will appoint a Governor for America without the need for further elections.

I think they should be allowed to keep baseball, but with some minor changes, first it will be called rounders, second, their two handed bats will be replaced by a small wooded bat, held by one hand only. And when the team gets a home run (now called a rounder) The crowd must chant "rounder, rounder" in unison. There sorted that one out.

That was wonderful! Best thing I've read so far. And it's funny, the more I think about it, the more I feel that it may be a valid solution to our problems over here. Especially the beer part! (being a brewer myself)
From Latin color, via Anglo-Norman colour (Early Anglo-Norman culur). The US spelling, which excludes the u, was chosen to conform to the word's Latin origin, and to make all derivatives consistent (colorimeter, colorize, colorless, etc; see below).

Funny joke but it doesn't respect the history of our language.
It originally had no u.
So let's at least make our jokes factual next time. Thanks.

Gordon Bennett, that's brilliant!! Every line game me a larf; maybe because I'm from the east side of the pond I hope those from our soon to be colony find it equally amusing.

After all those laws are enacted, the US can then call themselves Australia as well.
Wouldnt be any different than us here, now.
