"I can't believe I ate the whole gopher"
In Belgium, you can buy waffles from a vending machine. Is this a great country or what?
I am also quite content to be in a country where I can say nonante for 90 instead of quatre-vingts-dix. I don't know where this desire to say nonante comes from, as I've never spent any significant time in Belgium or Switzerland, but it makes so much more sense than the ridiculous compound "four twenties and ten" numbers the French use.
