Pnut has been thoroughly enjoying his xpat experience so far. Last night at dinner, he comes out with these little gems:
P: So I was thinking how funny things can be when you translate them from Italian to English. Like in Italian when we say “va cagare” [fuck off], you could say “vaca gare” which in English would mean cow races.
T: (blink, blink)
P: Oh, and do you know why all the Italians in New York are named Tony?
T: (blink, blink) Uh, … no?
P: Because it’s spelled TO - NY. Get it? To… NY? ha ha ha ha ha
T: I think I’m gonna need another glass of wine.

Taz,
What do you value most in other people?
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
If you could choose one of your personality traits to pass on to your child, what would it be?
What would you do if you knew you could not fail?
What is the best advice you’ve ever given? Received?
What is your middle name?
What is the first thing you notice in the opposite sex?
