Subject: RE: BS: Separated by a common language
Sometimes we do speak a different language, even have a different sense of humour. But, we can still enjoy ourselves telling the same jokes or singing the same songs...but m,aybe interpreted a bit differently.

This well sung song is on here somewhere else, but clearlyt makes my point:

Ac Canadian Country-folk local eastcCoast folk singer once sang (about mining (Inco) town Sudbury Ontario:
"The songs that we'll be singing, they might be wrong but they'll be ring'ing,
When the lights of town are shining bright, and we're all tight,
We'll get to work on Monday, but tomorrow's only Sunday,
And we're out to have a fun day for it's Saturday tonight"
