So anyway i`ll start this off by asking any Americans here to answer the following questions........

1. Everytime there is a visiting American president in the UK there is a lot of talk about the 'special relationship' between the two countries , do you feel any closer to the UK than say for example any other country?

2. In the last Football World Cup , the USA had their best ever tournament & got to the quarter finals, do you care & did you watch any of the matches?

3. Which British band do you feel has had the most impact in the U.S. in say the last 5 or 6 years?

4. When you think of the UK , what is the first image that comes into your head?

5. David Beckham is probably the biggest British sports star around the world , are you aware of him & what he does?
I'm late to this but figured I'd like to take part.

1. I feel closer to the UK than other countries yes. A lot of cultural similarities. Either the UK or Canada for the closest.

2. Yes I cared. I remember staying up until maybe 5 a.m. watching the US beat Mexico and lose to someone else (I wanna say Germany).

3. Eh. None.

4. Small elevators. Like the inside is tiny compared to those in the US, that's just from my hotel.

5. Yes, he plays soccer and humps a very fine piece of ass.
