Did you know that many Americans only know my country as being a place in Texas? And the ones who know it is in Europe say that Denmark is the capital of Amsterdam?

 Yes, they follow the Bush Curriculum .

Many places in the US have place names that originated from elsewhere in the world,  so some of them are bound to get confused.

In my country we have a village called Amerika and a village called America. So from now on I can think of these instead of the US?

Yes, I would think you are safe to do that

Let´s face it, Bush seems to live a Truman-like existence    (before the truth hits that is )

you can spot a Turk from a mile away no matter where you`re.

Anyone into "uzun esek" btw? I love this game.

 I think there are many of these on youtube too

It´s a little like Evil Kanevil without the motorbike and buses

The thread where members are posting their requests to join Beginners Class 1 at the end of October.  It´s rather long.

Yes indeed, silly season is here again. Most dudu´s bite the dust after a month so expect a sharp fall in membership....

 The dudu season hadn´t entered my head .  I was just wondering how Admin was going to cope with the demand, especially now Erdinc has left .  There´s at least twice as many applicants as there were for the first round of lessons.

 Perhaps it is time to set up the "dudu hotline" again???  hehehe
