True, true, those mischevious Canadians burned down the White House.  No hard feelings, though.  Really, I consider history from 1776 to the 1820's as America's freshman year.

Besides, we had it coming after a gangly, socially awkward US torched York, the Canadian capital.

It's sad what the kids in those days would do for attention.

    Now you've gotten me all nostalgic (well I would be had I actually been around in the 18th and 19th centuries).
    Torchings really need to be fashionable again. It's much less noisy and more destructive than ammunition, plus it probably is more cost effective, and fun since you gotta gather an angry mob.

Whatever you're thinking, I would like to hear it.
