My cousin John, of the Subversive Cheese thread, has a chum in England. When said chum came to visit him in Kentucky, he suggested they run up to Wyoming for the weekend. Suggesting that Americans are not the only ones who are geographically challenged.
When I was in high school, our British biology teacher told the class, "The average I.Q. in the United States is 100. The average I.Q. in Great Britain is 98, probably because we imported so many Irish."
The whole class signe the card that proclaimed her an honorary Irishman.
