Arrest Mel Gibson for treason 6. Close down the NFL. Learn to play rugby 7. Enjoy warm flat beer and steak and kidney pudding. Train waitresses to be more aggressive with customers and not to tell you their names before you eat. 8. July 4th is no longer a public holiday. This has been replaced with Guy Fawkes Day (November 5th) 9. All members of this British Crown Dependency will be required to take 6 weeks' annual vacation and observe statutory tea breaks. 10. Driving on the left is now compulsory-recall all cars to effect the change immediately. 11. Report to our Consulate General in NY for your new passport and job allocation. 12. Have Meg Ryan report to the Prince Andrews Bedchamber. 13. Add the Royal insignia to the top of the Washington Monument - and the Queen's Christmas speeches to the Lincoln Memorial. 14.
