Plenty of men call themselves American/Britons who don't speak the lanugage or know anything about the culture and I am not sure how many of you will agree with their idenity. For those who are locally born and raised and yet call themselves otherwise - such as American - I can assue you when they do go over to the "mother land", they won't be regarded as a fellow country man. What I don't get is: what's so great about calling yourself anything other than what you really are.
Very true BQ
Will be interesting to see the reaction from the crowd if Kevin Han wins gold at the badders

That's better known as a hard-boiled egg.
Does that make Phil Lynott a century egg

2H2H,
I don't think a court would as "what are you".
If they ask me "what is your nationality" I would answer "British, but I am a Permanent Resident of Hong Kong".
If they ask me "where is your home country" I would answer "Hong Kong".

and if they ask you how do you plead, you would answer "Guilty"
But god help them if they ask you: do you swear by almighty God...

That dish made from all egg whites is called ' choi pong Haih ' you serve that with a bit of red vinegar.
You obviously got it confused my dear, first of all I am very offended that you called me an omelette which I think I should be called egg foo young. The similarities are both beaten eggs, an omelette is well cooked and thick in texture , like a piece of pan cake. Where as egg foo young is juicy and tender .

erh an omelette is not well cooked, but rather "baveux", and thick is not a texture, and its got nothing at all in common with a pancake, except maybe for that pancakes contain eggs but thats as far as the similarity goes.
come and have en omelette on me for once as i see you need to get some education on the matter.

That's very nice of you 2hot. I like education. Where is your Restuarant located ?
Can I bring AKA ? He is a well educated person and he might want to educate me with Karaoke lessons afterwards.
