The Germans are coming

Things I've learned from the Germans who are visiting us in New York

"we love the American food"

"we love the barbeque the meat the portions and the ranch dressings."

"we love the ben and jerrys"

They will watch 4 hours of "cooking channel" (food network) but not one frame of Gossip Girl. They also think the word gossip stands for Gospal and missy elliot sang Gospal music in "gossip folks"

After explaining that I had jury duty on Thursday they asked me "if I had signed up for this because I had seen the crime."

They think Tivo is magic and I can fast forward live Events while they are happening in real time.

When we take a cab they press every single tab on the taxi tv screen repeatedly until we reach our destination.

We went to ground zero and they asked if the freedom tower would have rental apartments available.

More later...
