Thread Name: American Cultural oddities
Subject: RE: American Cultural oddities
A couple of weeks ago I heard Ken Ham, an Australian living in America, who speaks at creation science gatherings. He mentioned that Australians hate pickles but love vegamine and that Americans are the opposite. He also told of asking a friend's daughter to nurse his baby and when she refused he told her that he supposed he'd have to do it himself! (in the US "nursing a baby" means more that caring for the child it usually means to breast feed)
