Anywhere you go I think you will have the range from idiot to intellectual.

Now in America, are we talking Northerners, Southerners, East Coasties, West Coasties, Mid Westerners, South Westerners ... ?

Midwesterners are by far the most blessed with the grey matter when it comes to Yank DNA. ;-)

My brother used to say that if you listened to a tattooed inmate talk from an English prison, he'd still sound smart. It's the accent. For some reason, that accent sounds very refined to our American ears. We both have great thinkers though.

Hanging out with a Girl from across the pond...

We stopped in Boston to get some Cigarettes for her.....

Marlboro please she asked in the "King's" .....

Sorry we're out...

Out of FU****G Marlboro's ....It's the most popular brand of Fu*****g Cigs!!!! (Again with the accent)

Now most of the time the Clerk would tell you FU** OFF!!

Yet when she said it and I agreed ....it wasn't offencive...

the Clerk said "You're right....I'm Sooo Sorry"

You Brits, Scots, Aussies, really confuse me when you don't type with an accent, I almost mistake you for a superior American, but every now and then you throw in those crazy misspelled English words and reveal yourself just like the Southerners.

LOL---I have a writing partner born in Wales, and while she lived in NYC, I had no problem critiquing her work. Ten minutes after she moved to London, I had to ask her for translations. JUMPER=Sweater. WHAT?

But my absolute favorite is using Brilliant. I love that. I use it myself now. I mean, we use brilliant, just not in the casual context of our British friends.

So one time I spelled gray---grey. Both are correct, and I do that often, but another Brit told me it was good to see an American spelling it correctly.

Other favorites: learnt instead learned, or dreamt instead of dreamed.
