So I wake up this morning to the big news out of the UK...really didn't see that coming. Not sure what impact it'll have here in the U.S. - could be good for us when the pound tanks.

I saw this last night and didn't see it coming as well....apparently, what actually "pushed" the Brits to leave the EU was after the US President tried to "urge" them to stay in it.
 
The British pound has dropped quite a bit: http://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/convert/?From=USD&To=GBP
 
 

The pound will rally. Glad we're getting our country back, and won't be dictated to by faceless overpaid Eurocrats who we didn't elect and couldn't get rid of. Of course, it'll likely take years and they'll give us a good kicking on the way out to try and dissuade other countries from doing the same.

Yes, good for the Brits!!
 
Bapu for the new PM?

nothing's happened yet, and the result's actually not legally binding (just "advisory" - they didn't mention that much) but at least cameron's resigning

and the forum double-posted it for good measure

Another layer of bureaucracy and government waste obliterated. I could not be happier. Let's hope the remaining countries follow suit. I'll give the EU another 5 years. 

Well, our stock market didn't fall very fall (yet), but simply lost most of the gains that came from last week when it looked like Britain (or should I say England) was going to stay.
 
I've got a check due in Pounds soon, so that sux, but it is only a small one.  Maybe by the time it is writ the Pound will be back up.

 
It's a start.
 
Now all we've got to do is get rid of the House of Lords and the Monarchy
