After checking out of the hotel yesterday (took a nice trip to New Hampshire), I overheard some British (?) tourists commenting on someone's bumper sticker.
(in that accent) Got Deer? What is that? Got Deer WHOT? Loses something in the translation!
(laughing) I didn't feel like walking over and explaining about the Got Milk? ad campaign and how there are a lot of take offs on that. Somewhere in New England there are some old England types leaf peeping and wondering about that stupid bumper sticker.

LOL. I have a "Got Twins?" sticker on the back of my minivan. That would probably confuse 'em, too. 😉

And now if they see a Got Milk? ad, they'll wonder if it's some sort of take-off on the Got Deer? bumper sticker.

I just have a rather abrupt manner about me. I'm generally quiet but when I say something it's usually profound.

Nope, the market is all yours...
As a longtime Thunderbird, Firefox and Sunbird user I have to say that I've learned to love and hate each on its own terms.
Thunderbird when connected to an IMAP server will hammer the CPU.
Firefox doesn't release memory all that easily.
And Sunbird has quirks that will make you go crazy.

Some sayings just don't translate well far from home. When I visited London a few years ago, I bought a t-shirt that said "mind the gap" on the front. If you have never had the experience of riding the London "tube" system, you will likely find that "mind the gap" meaningless.

Sorry, I don't click on "links" with my "mouse" which point to the pages of some weird religious cult. You bozos even seem to believe that your leader will return while you people are still alive (parousia). A totally deluded cult, inotherwords.
