Thread Name: Talking To Americans
Subject: RE: Talking To Americans
When I was touring Scotland, I took a lady friend along. She was trying to buy something, and couldnt get it through her head to just double the stated price. At the time, the pound was worth $1.90. Finally, in frustration, she turned to me and said "How much is that in REAL money?" I wanted to leave her there. This is the kind of crap that gives Americans a bad name. Anyway, I have about a dozen Canadian friends, and whoever this guy is, he will have to work harder than that to make me change my mind about Canadians.
