Instructions? On a gum wrapper?

Sounds like…
Ok I’ve been spending too much time with the TV on nearby at home.
The guy sitting across from me is from Egypt and sounds just like the man running the ‘Punching Dummy’ from the ‘Master of Disguise’ movie. You get to meet the ‘Punching Dummy’ guy at the end of the movie.
Then, there’s a local lady a few desks down who sounds like one of the characters from the ‘Teletubbies’ show, especially when she answers the phone. (“Hallooo… uh oh… Goot Byeee…”)
It’s hard to keep a ‘stiff upper lip’ around here sometimes. I’m certain my slight Texas accent doesn’t help them either…
Funniest quote heard today
“I’m speaking for everyone here today except for myself…”
Nice to hear
Today I heard a native say something nice about the States, not realizing that I was around.
That was really nice. It’s a breath of fresh air and much-needed.
