RIP Jerry Lewis
@Searcher: Huh. I just assumed Nutella was well-known across the Western hemisphere. I actually used to think (when I was a kid) that it was German, because it is so ubiquitous here.
So Az has it right.
@yira: I've been working in Spain since the beginning of March, but since two weeks, I've been home again for summer kind-of-vacation.
So Az has it right again. ;)

I feel bad I didn't know you were back in Germany but at least I didn't completely make up the Spain part.

Re: Thread : In the news today
Don...either Searcher doesn't buy groceries or doesn't have a TV or skips the commercials because it's hard to go more than about a day here without seeing a commercial for Nutella and the knockoff brands are rather common here.
