A Pop/Rock band originating from Stillwater, Oklahoma.
Members Nick Wheeler (Lead Guitar) and Tyson Ritter (Vocals/Bass) came from Stillwater, and recorded their first CD - Self Titled 'The All-American Rejects'- in 2002 with Tyson doing Bass and Vocals, while Nick did everything else. After a few line-up changes, they recruited Guitarist Mike Kennerty and Drummer Chris Gaylor to play with them (Both coming from Edmund, Oklahoma). Chris and Mike then became permanent members of the band. In summer 2005 The All-American Rejects released their sophomore album, Move Along. From this offering came hits such as "Dirty Little Secret", "Move Along" and "It Ends Tonight". The All-American Rejects' off and on-stage antics make them very fun people to watch and probably very fun to be around.

Get the All American Rejects mug.An American who clings to a false Irish hyphenated identity in an effort to dilute his/her annoying, ignorant American one. They are known as 'Plastic Paddies'. They have never set foot on Irish soil, don't know any Irish people and call Irish (i.e. Gaeilge) 'Gaelic' e.g. ''OMG speak some gaelic!''. They believe they are Irish because their grandfather's grandmother lived next to a woman whose postman was from Dublin. Incidentally, Dublin is the only Irish city they're aware of, unless they're one of the elite few who know of ''Galloway'' (i.e. Galway, pronounced Gawl-way) or Cob - H (i.e. Cobh, pronounced cove). A real Irish person is born in Ireland and grows up there and would never compromise their identity by adding 'American' onto the latter end of their title of nationality (even if s/he moved to the U.S. and lived there indefinitely). Unless you have an Irish passport, don't call yourself Irish...even if your fifth cousin's brother-in-law's dog lived in Kerry!

Get the American breakfast mug.The History of the United States of America. Founded in 1776 by our Founding Fathers including and not limited to General George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and Alexander Hamilton. George Washington wanted to be elected by the people and did not want to be King; he became the first president in 1789 followed by Adams (The only Founding Father who did not own slaves) and Jefferson (Penned the Declaration of Independence, buyer of the Louisiana Purchase.)
Between 1776 - 1860, more states in the West entered into the Union while the North and South became separated due to economy & slavery. After Abraham Lincoln was elected, the South became their own country: Confederate States of America with President Elect Jefferson Davis. Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation which freed the slaves. Civil War broke out at Fort Sumter, climaxed at Gettysburg and ended at the Alamo: 600,000 dead. The Union was preserved. Reconstruction followed.
