    I think the refrain here was supposed to be, "Who cares?"

    Radically different dialects ... like UK English vs American English.

    Define:
    Lift
    Flat

    How do you get "lorry" out of "truck"

    All Sicilians are Italian but not all Italians are Sicilian.~Giuseppe Cusimano

    In London, you would take the lift (elevator) to get to your flat (apartment).

    My Sicilian Grandmother told me about talking with her in-laws from Naples and some word they kept asking her to get meant one thing to them and “pillow case” to her. She couldn’t figure out why they wanted her to get the pillow cases to help set the table.

    Just about the same amount the average American deserves for being as much native American as she is.

    Let’s see if I can calculate that. There are 300 million Americans and the “average” is typically within one standard deviation of the mean, or about 60% of the population. So about 18 million people have just as much right to the $1 million. That works out to about 5.5 cents each. As one of the 18 million, who do I talk to to get my Trump nickel. :Wink

    Stephen Crowder (Louder With Crowder) says that Warren has proven that she is the whitest person in America.

    Not only did she find out her bloodline but I heard she also found out her Cherokee name... "Eating Crow".

    She's whiter than snow. The whole analysis was flawed because Latino DNA was used for comparison instead of Indian DNA. Warren lied her way to the top when she got her jobs at Pennsylvania (?) and Harvard. As Senator Hatch said, he has that much T-Rex in him and the rest is just assorted dinosaur. In Warren's case, she is pure Aryan with those blue eyes and that pasty white skin.

    In Maine, I'm pretty sure that one must have at least 1/4 Indian ancestry, well substantiated, to obtain tribal privileges. I'd guess it's the same or similar for other US tribes.

    In London, you would take the lift (elevator) to get to your flat (apartment).

    Rats. You beat me to it. My response was going to be:
    Lift: Mr. Otis will oblige. Going up?
    Flat: We usually don't rent pancakes.
