And how much more independence do you need?

And England proved itself totally dependent on the USA after about 150 years!

They're pissed off cos of the state the English overlords have gotten them in.
Conveniently forgetting that the previous two prime ministers that played a large part of getting the country in the state it is in were Scottish.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

 Not in this instance. Born and bred in Illinois (just south of Chicago) so I'm a damn Yankee. I used that phrase purely for the humor.

The poor Scots, as you know from watching movies made by idiotic Americans, live in mud and have their women stolen from them by evil English kings, but, far worse than that, they are subjected to prime-time BBC shows on Saturdays.
They want independence so they can make their own show: "Strictly Nothing is Worn under the Kilt".

Hey, it's only been four months[^] since that one was posted! You're supposed to wait at least six months. 
It was first posted to the Lounge in July 2001. It's so old, links to the first copies in the Lounge don't work, and it even pre-dates Leslie!

A lawyer boarded an airplane in New Orleans with a box of frozen crabs and asked a blonde flight attendant take care of them for him. She took the box and promised to put it in the crew's refrigerator. He advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for them staying frozen, mentioning in an arrogant manner that he was a lawyer, and threatened what would happen to her if she let them thaw out.
Shortly before landing in New York , she used the intercom to announce to the entire cabin, "Would the lawyer who gave me the crabs in New Orleans , please raise your hand?"
Not one hand went up .... so she took them home and ate them.
There are two lessons here:
1. Lawyers aren't as smart as they think they are .
2. Blondes aren't as dumb as most folks think.
