I suspected all along, but I couldn't be sure until today when she spelled 'humor' with a 'u'. Busted!

I also spell humour with a "u" and colour rather than color.
I was born in Brooklyn which is definitely part of the US of A.

I was born in Mississippi and have attended schools on the East coast as far north as New York.
Somewhere in this country, I learned how to spell humour with a "u" also.

Actually, my origin was documented here a couple of years ago. I discovered that another poster on AW lived right across the street from where I was born. She knew all of my relatives who still live there -- My uncle was her CPA!
So, I'm genuine American!

Ok Helen, I assume that you are in an earlier time zone and I'm sure you watch 60 Minutes. What was on tonight's 60 minutes? I'm about to watch it now.
If not 60 Minutes, describe another tv show that is on prime time network tv tonight.

Junquemama,
She left when AW began requiring credit cards. Now, she posts on other boards but I haven't kept in touch with her.

Cable channels are broadcast all over the world. It has to be network tv. Do this: turn to a tv program on network tv (any tv program) and describe 1-2 minutes worth and at what time.
