My husband sent me this one. He can totally relate because he's in Asia about one week every month. When we had a home invasion (it was awful!), he was in Tokyo. I called the hotel and asked for his room. Asians have trouble with L's and R's and couldn't understand his name. I asked to speak to someone who spoke English. The operator said, "I speak Engwish." I said, "Apparently not because you can't even understand his name, even when I spell it." She put someone else on the phone, and I finally got through to my husband.

BR, what's a home invasion? Is that the new terminology for robbery? If so My Condolences! We had one of them--only my handbags were snatched, but I felt so violated. Not to say angry as well, since one was an Italian bag and the other one a Longchamps I bought in Paris. :bang: :bang:
