Stupid TouristsWhat's the stupidest thing you've ever heard a tourist say? Ever heard an American talking about visiting "Scotchland, England", or (and this one is actually real) a Japanese couple talking about the correct way to say Clapham is actually Clatham, as "ph" sounds are pronounced "th". Which has a certain logic really. UPDATE: Please, no more Loogabarooga stories. It's getting like, "and I opened my eyes and my mum had left me a cup of tea!"

Summer jobI spent one summer working at a local aquatic theme park. Needless to say, people from just about everywhere in the world came by, and I was often asked classic questions such as...
*"What time is the 11 o'clock show?" (I'd make them walk all the way to the front of the park to get a show schedule).
*"Where's Pearl Harbor?" (That's in Hawaii, not Ohio.)
*"Why the hell don't the souvineer fans have batterries?" (I forgot that it was MY fault)
