- Read today in the paper that Brits are recommended to remove their lawn gnomes when they are selling their homes. The euros are indeed way advanced in their thinking.
- The television here is very different. I've gotta believe that some pub has a DirecTV dish right? How do US athletes like Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods get enough exposure to be famous over here if they don't show the sports?
- My conclusions from the late night TV here are twofold. First, the Germans are really into their porn. They have some channel that I believe is advertising porn, but there's no reason to buy because it's all right there. There's an opportunity for a joke about Tommy Verhasselt that I won't take. Second, the Brits like to text and they spend a lot of money playing texting games. So much so that the blond hostess spends about half the time warning people to not over-extend themselves. Crazy.
- I've decided to embrace beer during our time in London. At dinner tonight Tiff commented that I've had a beer everyday since we've been here. Let's see how long I can keep the streak alive. I actually like Guinness, but favorites so far may be Fuller's London Pride along with Boddington's (intro'd by the Pannonis) which I haven't found on tap, but I did get a six pack for only $10 at the Sainsbury's Local.
