On a recent air trip, while waiting in line to board the plane, we saw a young American woman put aside her iPod to start a conversation with the Italian gentleman behind her. After the usual intro and complaints about air travel, she said, ‘I’ve always wanted to go that place, what’s it called, the one where they have water all over the streets.’
The offended Italian replied: ‘You mean New Orleans.’
