How nice to know that not everyone thinks we're dull.
Dull?! How could anywhere that could give the world this - http://slate.msn.com/Features/bushisms/bushisms.asp or this http://www.xmission.com/~mwalker/DQ/quayle/qq/hall.of.fame.html ever be considered dull?
An interesting aside on the matter of differences between national preferences for humour: I heard an interview on the radio with a professor from the London School of Economics. He had done a study of jokes targetting different ethnicities/nationalities - and said that the only instance he could find where there appeared to be a vein of real hatred under the humour was in the jokes told on opposite of the Tasman about those across the water.
