    I think the fact that ParNone said that she went abroad, means that the people calling her a yankee would not have been from the US. Yet another international misunderstanding, I think!

    Oh, crap. I thought she meant she went on a cruise. D'oh. Ha ha. How funny. Yeah, when you read it as abroad, it makes sense. But, I guess I didn't realize people outside of the US called all US folks yankees...you learn something new every day!
