HUNTING

[Mohammed]

Ahhh, I didnt realize the hounds did the killing, thought that was done by a human with a gun, and that the hounds just found/cornered the fox.

Yeah, that doesnt sound like a whole lot of fun to me.

It's pretty simple really, the English are at the top of the world with their socialising variety of sport. The fun is not in achieving your goal but the process of it, as well as getting totally and utterly sloshed during the process.

Look at Cricket. 3 days?? Anybody else on the planet goes "You for real?!", but it takes an Englishman to fully appreciate that 3 day process and the opportunity it gives him to drown as many pints or G&T's as possible during that time as well as giving their typical smart ass comments.

Then we come to Golf, which is nothing else but spending bonding moments walking across the country side.

Of course there is Lawn Criquet as well and the afore mentioned Fox Hunt. Hundreds of people and dogs after a single Fox? Get real, it is nothing else but an opportunity to try and show of your elitist standing as well as trying to get into Elizabeth's knockers, two very important aspects of the British life style.

That's why America is so different because it was mainly the peasants from England moving there. They didn't know any different but from doing things all by themselves. Just like Dick really.
