hmm aside from chinese, Spanish I think English is the next most pouplar language spoken ? Maybe this explains that phenomena <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
MeaCulpa
On thing that always upset me about my own countrymen was their total stupidity of expecting others, In Their Own Country, to speak the English language.
I mean, get real!!!
If you are in France...Learn to speak French.
If you are in Germany...Learn to speak German.
And so on etc...
Why a lot of my fellow countrymen fail to understand this is beyond me.
The typical stereotypes that still go on today between our countries is absurd!!!
I am a mentor to children in my spare time and this one wonderful little girl of 10 years old had it in her head that the French Men run around wearing Beret’s, skin tight horizontal stripped shirts, and thin moustaches.
She got this notion from some Xbox game that’s out for children.
I had to teach her that those thoughts were wrong and she shouldn’t think that way.
Of course I had to explain it in a way a 10 year old child would understand.
But anyway I am rambling.
I just wanted you all to know there are also American’s who do care about our neighbors from other countries. But it is very rare you would ever hear about us. We are the normal everyday people who wake up and go to work and then go back home after work day in and day out.
Take care all
