Once, in The Fiddler's Green Pub back in good ol' Ypsilanti, MI, my friend
Charlie Schaffer and I got a wild hair and stood up after a particularly
rousing chorius of "We'll All Meet Together in the Green, In The Green" and
sang "God Save The Queen." Ghu only knows how we rememebred the words after
that much Guiness.
Not only did we make it out of there in one piece, they actually welcomed
us back the next week...



Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the 
argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.
