I am quite surprised to have this third entry concerning British humor, but given Missourians' dislike for all things Kansan, I wanted to let my friends in the Sho-Me state know that they are not alone.
From a commentator on a BBC 4 radio "News in Review" program:
"When I took the Eurostar [train] from London to Paris, I guess I thought it was all going to be underground. How sad I was to emerge from the chunnel to find I was in Kansas."
Northern France, is, as you might have guessed, rural and flat. Unlike the drive across Kansas, however, here one is assured of perhaps the most incredible destination imaginable: the incomparable gift of Paris.
Not much rain of late now that it has gotten colder (30-40 Fahrenheit), still quite perfect nonetheless.
