Two things that I’ve observed:
1. The world no longer hates Americans, they just think we’re stupid. And who can blame them, we elected W, not once, but twice! And if a person who speaks American English seems to have an I.Q. score of more than about 27, it’s assumed they’re actually Canadian.
2. Marketing campaigns in Europe are all about exuberance.
Here’s the problem:
Europeans love the idea of exuberance + Americans are annoying for their exuberance = We really want to be exuberant, but only if no one is looking. It’s so…silly, whilst we’re trying to look so…sophisticated.

Happy Valentine’s day! Mianne.
Valentine’s day is not only being with a partner, it is also being in the heart of your friends or among them. Unfortunately for me you are not here in US, but please do not forget that you are always in my heart and thoughts!
