Wasn't there some kind of funny email going around a few years back about the Brits apologizing to us for the revolution, or something? I was trying to find it, on the occasion of the Queen's visit, and can't find it now. I seem to remember it was really funny. Anybody know what I'm talking about? And now, I'm not talking about the Canadian apology, which is also funny. This was better. I think actually it might have been written after Bush's first or second election, and in response to it. Anyone?

UPDATE: Okay, this is getting interesting. Someone in the comments posted a link to a piece entitled "John Cleese's Letter to America." That's the piece I was thinking of. But get this. John Cleese never penned any such thing. And, there are numerous versions of it flying around the Net. About.com has dissected the history of this bit of urban legend humor. It's actually quite interesting. Here is one example of the piece.
