The US army bases near the Canadian border, the plans, drawn up between the wars, to invade Canada?
It was the ill will from the war of independence and the 1810 war of complete humiliation (for the US  )

I love americans, when I travelled to Mexico my favourite part was sitting in the airport bar in Atlanta or Houston chatting to the yanks for 6 hours whilst waiting for my flight; they are so interesting and friedly
You could even chat to lone women without them thinking that you're cracking on to them, something you can't do in England

Minor correction. You're thinking of his grandfather (George II). George III was English. Yes, he was from Hanoverian stock, but he was born in London. His father was German, but he never took the throne, having died before George II.

He is still a despotic German king, whichever way you play it. Heck, even queen Victoria had a german accent!

No, thanks. They start sprinkling water and shouting things in Latin as soon as they see me coming.

Correct but @LabViewStuff got there just a smidge ahead of you...

I found THIS ONE quite hilarious! (SFW) 
I'm no grammar nazi of course. But I hate it when my autocorrect changes my texts - As far as I'm concerned, it can go straight to he'll

Hello all,
After a week out of the office...
When I turn the laptop on while connected at the dock station I can see how the computer brand appearing at the POST screen normally at the beginning, but when the Windows 10 login screen should appear I can see nothing but the mouse cursor blinking.
This also happens when the computer comes back from the screen saver/sleep after a short period of not using it (i.e. leaving the computer on before going to lunch).
I can write my password and press enter and then everything starts working properly.
In other cases I need to press the power button and send the computer to sleep. When I wake it up everything works as expected.
This is new for me... Not a super big deal, but... any idea on why this could be happening? any cpian has seen something like this before? and in case you have, how you've solved it?
Thank you all!

Our dog behaves the same way when we go away for a week - pretends it doesn't know us, etc. Perhaps your computer has reached dog-like intelligence?
Seriously, I find that I get similar errors when I cold-boot my computer with an external drive connected. Could this be it?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
--Winston Churchill
