I’m really enjoying the Olympics (go Team USA!  Go Team GB!), and hope you are, too.

I just did a bit of trolling through the internet and came up this site on BBC America called “Mind the Gap, a Brit’s Guide to Surviving America, 10 Things Americans Say and What They Really Mean,”  which is written by Ruth Margolis, who moved from the UK to the US, the opposite trip from mine.  To see her take on this and other topics, and vice versa, click on these links:
