If you fancy a laugh, it's worth buying/borrowing a copy of today's Sun and reading the Jeremy Clarkson column, which is all about Hurricane Katrina and the American response.

Yes, I know the low esteem in which the "newspaper" is held, but it really is worth a read. Hilariously funny, at the expense of the US government.

Heh, but where would we be without Crossing Jordan on our TV shows, with her pseudo Irish wannabe (lucky) charms?

And of course, many a time she's been caught up in one of the greatest sporting rivalries in all time, the Maine Blue Cars versus the San Houston Super-Tigers.

Go go the super tigers, that's what I say.

Bit much saying no one would have got that reference, it's one of the biggest rivalries in all of sport after all.

All you needed were the Mariners there Fix and that's my 3 favourite teams, plus my home and my 2 spiritual homes :-)

I knew the team existed.

American culture permeates our life enough that a fair few people would know that.

Red Sox are a baseball team (without looking it up - you'll have to take my word on that).

New York Yankees, Toronto Blue Jays (canadian but what the hell). :)

It's a reference to an American sport, therefore nobody understands it properly. You may as well talk about Martian sports. You know what he's getting at by virtue of the very fact that he said it, but he could have made up a team and no one would have noticed.

...I think this may have lost something now it's had to be explained.
