I once had a friend who, presumably because there are so many American movies on TV, seemed convinced that everything he saw on TV was in America. There was a rugby match on one day, and he said "That rugby's coming from Scotland. Scotland's in America". To which his Dad answered "Everything's in America as far as he's concerned".
