philadelphia freedom

"Och aye, the thahngs we do for Brrrrrrrraddy."
{Actual quote from a Glaswegian East Ender.}

Yeah, so Brad Pitt was in Glasgow for two weeks.


Filming a zombie war movie, erm film, downtown.


But do you notice something unusual here?


Well, the film takes place in Philadelphia.


So Glasgow became America for a wee while.


Street signs and stars and stripes and everythang.


I live and breathe that Philadelphia freedom.


If you choose to you can live your life alone.


Some people choose the city.


I like living easy.


Without family ties.


'Til the whippoorwill of freedom zapped me.


Right between the eyes.


Shine a light, won't you shine a light.


Philadelphia freedom, I love you, yes I do.


We have lots of stern signs in America.


Proper trucks, none of this lorry business.


Air Conditioning!


Yellow Cabs!


S.W.A.T.!


Dunkin'!


Verizon!


USA Today!


Garden State Plate!


USPS!


All this stuff = disorientation for an American girl in Ggow.


And reminding me that I don't ever want to leave Britain no no no.


America, blurghhhhhhhhhh.


Now unfortch I didn't get to see Brrrrrrrraddy.


But I did get to see Prince William this summer.
And we all know that Prince > Pitt.
