    I'm guilty of this quite a bit. Of course, I'm an admitted anglophile -- most of my favorite shows are BBC and ITV products, my favorite books are Forrester's and O'Brien's Brit naval series. I find myself dropping "Briticisms" quite a bit because there's something a little more genteel about saying "bollocks" than "bullshit" and so on. So, if that makes me wrong, well... JOG ON! :)

    That's funny. I've covered high school football in Odessa AND Paris (Texas, that is; sad to say, Odessa has more going for it).

    Got nothing for Hungary other than I have had goulash a few times.
