During quiz night at Stallion’s pub in Orihuela, Spain, where, incidentally, there are nothing but Brits.
Quizzer: What was the name of the Lone Ranger’s horse?
The husband unit: The Lone Ranger?
Me: I think it’s a cowboy.
Guy sitting at next table: You should know this. You’re American.
Me: I’m Canadian.
Guy sitting at next table furrows his brow to indicate doubt.
Me: If I were American, I’d admit it.
No Americans were harmed in the making of this blog. But a handful of Canadians were probably a little miffed, and at least one British man was very disappointed.
