re: #189 Dr Lizardo

A couple of weeks ago, I was downtown, and stopped off at Burger King in Nova Karolina shopping center.

When I walked up to the counter - and without even opening my mouth to say a single word - the cashier girl took one look at me and immediately started speaking English.

Several years ago, a German friend of my brother in Germany was staying with my mom in California. She sneezed at the library, and a man said ‘Gesundheit’. She said, ‘Danke’, and went back to my mom’s and asked, ‘How did he know I was German? Do I look German?’
