It’s Summer In Australia When It’s Winter Here.

Okay.  We all knew that, but I was looking at The Travel Book published by the folks at Lonely Planet, and I learned a new piece of Cliff Claven-type knowledge.

Albanians shake their heads to say yes and usually nod to say no.

Well, gosh darn it.  I feel like I’ved learned something.  Okay, so maybe you knew that, too, but give me a break.  I didn’t know the capital of Montana last week.

*Maybe I’ve been asking out Albanian women for dates all this time and just didn’t know it.  I knew it wasn’t me!

    This is brilliant: “Cliff Claven-type knowledge.” Since I can’t answer a single question on Jeopardy, I thrive on recognizing obscure pop cultural references from my childhood. I also have an amazing memory for matching faces of actors in movies and TV shows to other parts they’ve played. Too bad I can’t remember anything of value.

    I don’t remember if I wrote a post about watching this clip, but it’s appropriate:

    You remember all those “bonsai” we drank in Asakusa, too, and that counts for something.

    I’ll take “Celibacy” for $200, Mr. Trebek.
