Quote of the Day:
JoNell the nephew’s wife and I are looking at an ad for the new Kit movie.
Me, to JoNell: Were you into American Girls?
Matt, interrupting: I’ve been into American girls since I was 14.
That QOTD (btw, you should read the entire post that goes with the QOTD: it’s great!) reminded me of a conversation I had the other day with a 24 year old Jordanian Muslim guy at Petra:
Jordanian: I want to find a beautiful American girl. Can you help me?
Me (laughing): Sorry, but I’m not sure I can–I haven’t found one of my own yet!
We think such a question is hilarious, but in Eastern culture with arranged marriages, asking someone to help you find a wife is a normal thing.
