Minneapolise

Fra samtale med en 13-aaring amerikaner:

Han: So why are you in the US?
Jeg: I go to college here
Han: What are you in college for?
Jeg: Economics
Han: You don’t have colleges in Europe?
Jeg: We do have colleges in Europe, even in Norway
Jeg igjen: Was that a serious question??
Han: Yeah, well, I mean, for what you’re studying…

For oekonomi er jo ikke vanlig i det hele tatt…
