    I have been to Japan a few times, and I was frequently impressed by the creative, even decorative use of English I saw all around, and not just on t-shirts.  I was given a pot holder while there with the words "Free and Easy Penguin Cooking".  I also had a saucepan with the words Easy Mama anodized into it.  I have never found a satisfactory explanation for either of those. 

    This may be getting too far off topic.  I just thought people might find it curious.

    So if Canada is America's hat… what does that make Mexico?  Its underpants?

    This may be a case of the metaphor being carried a bit too far…  😀

    Quite the clusterf_ck – a Finnish rock band and the Red Army Choir covering a Lynyrd Skynyrd song about American regionalism, civil rights, and nosy Canadian moralizing.  Surreal.

    That is one um, incredible take on Skynyrd.  I mentioned this to a friend today and he introduced me to the Red Elvises.  I found their song Love Rocket on You Tube.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CDWnhegy5M 
    I think it's a riot.  OK, I found others too.  You Tube is full of their videos, but none of the others worked for me.
