I love the way the experts work so hard at not breaking character. As an American, it reminds me a lot of what Stephen Colbert used to do.

I still remember a college friend's student teaching essay assignment in 7th grade 20th c. history in the mid 1980s. Instructions: Write a two page essay on an historical figure from WWll. Use and cite sources. For example Encyclopedia Brittanica. The title, followed by three laboriously copied consecutive encyclopedia entries, that to this day make me chuckle was: "Hitler, Hittites and Hives."

@JZ's BFF We have a rather unique ability to laugh at ourselves. We never take criticism seriously at any level.... we can laugh at our detracters...& laugh along with them. Something newer arrivals fail to grasp....and would wish to condemn us for. Duck 'em I say, Duck the Duckers.

I have a customer that comes to my store in Montreal, she was in the Royal Ballet during The Blitz. They were instrumental(as was the music) in helping people cope with the harrowing experience. She said that whenever the sirens went off as they were preforming, everybody would shhh them and the performers just kept going and help the crowd enjoy what could be their last moment. I'm transferring stores this week. Going to miss her.
