A funny thing, the Koreans also call this country "Finland". That was about the only thing I could understand when I heard them talking to each other and confirmed it from them. Then I learned that they don't call their country "Korea" like we do in Finnish and English, but "Hanguk".

I blame you Britons. First you went there with your silly wooden sailing ships and lied to them that we are called Finland, then you came back with your silly wooden sailing ships and lied to us that they are called Korea. Because of your ancestors I have been calling a distant country wrong for all my life without even knowing it, and so have they. I hope you are happy now.

I know about half of the cars in Kosovo in 1999 were stolen from Germany, still had german plates and the D badge.

touché!

Those weird USAnians often confuse this, which makes it easy for people like me to tell them about our strict wooden shoe laws in Dutchland - no wood, no service.

Who knows. I'd suspect I'm more Bosnian than serb descent, considering I work the grill like I was born with it

Hey, Bet! Seeing as this thread is so far off topic that Felix Baumgartner is planning on jumping from it, can you tell me what this says -



And it's is only looking at these pics today I've noticed the vehicle on the right!

I think it should be renamed to the Bombed Balkan Auto.
