PUN

I´ve been in the States in 1986 to ´87. The most common question was:

"Where are you from?"

I:"Kiel, as in Kiel Canal."

"Which country?"

I:"Germany, northern part."

"I didn´t realize there´s a Northern part as well."

I:"Beg your pardon?"

"Oh, I knew there´s a West and an East, but it´s new to me that you´ve got a North Germany, too."

I:"So where´s Alaska?"

"Canada?"

 

footnotes for Kenneth Sand:
* the so-called Germany was reunited in 1989!
* The old name of Kiel is not Alt-Kiel!
* It´s Tom Kyle!
* And I´ve been to Amsterdam, both cities!
