Happy Greek Independence Day

  1. I am half-Greek myself so I hope noone gets offended but I cannot help but remember one of the jokes of Basil the comedian:

    “Kosta, what are we going to wear when we kick the Turkish arse. Its important that we look cool!”

    “I have just the right idea! A nice skirt. And red schoes with a huge woolen pompon! But most importantly white stockings!”

  2. 202 years Hellenic State.Also queue in the Albanians sprouting their pseudo-history,it only makes you more ridiculous.For the record the Arvanites and the Souliotes etc fully identified as Greek during the Revolution.To add the first Constitution adopted by the revolutionaries was the most liberal of its day.

  3. Εὖ γε τῆς ἐλευθερίας ὑμῶν! Εἴθε γάρ ἐς ἀεὶ παραμένοι.

    (Apologies… I know it’s the wrong kind of Greek, but I couldn’t resist).
