I am 67.5% British, just like
Sir Elton John
Roots in the UK, the rest of your hair is in the US.


Well, not bad, at least I have roots... I might end up causing a riot seeing how many Americans are aorund here, but I am a purist of Britishness... You'll never catch me writinf 'color' instead of 'colour'...unless it's one of my many typing mistakes ;)
(that of course doesn't mean I have anything against your spelling or anything, just I chose to stay on that side ;))

Man, I'm only 35% like Madonna.

"Just as happy in LA or London. Aren't the narrow roads in the UK quaint."

Hmmm, my accent is more like British than the American English... but I'm only 35%!!! Guess there's nothing to do with the accent thing. *shrugs*

I am 62.5% British, just like Sir Elton John. Roots in the UK, the rest of your hair is in the US. I would point out that I am Southern American, of Celtic, German. and Cherokee descent. However, I read a great deal of British Lit. and my favorite TV Show is Doctor Who.
