Heh. All of which puts me in mind of a recent rec.humor.funny
post about cultural differences, which ended with:

Aussies:   Have produced comedians like Paul Hogan and Yahoo Serious.
Canadians: Have produced many great commedians, like John Candy, Martin
           Short, Jim Carrey, Dan Akroyd, and all the rest at SCTV.
Americans: Think that these people are American!
Brits:     Have produced many great comedians, but Americans ignore them
           because they don't understand subtle humor.

I'll refrain from posting the whole thing here (although the
Aussie/Canuck/Murrican/Brit cultural contrast seems to be a
permanent subtext) but I can mail it to anyone who wants it...
