Americans are quick to use abbreviations, all of our states are two letters- Kentucky is KY, North Carolina is NC, New York is NY. We also use TV television, ID identity, TP toilet paper, PC politically correct, and many more. On the lighter side of English is a joke I recently received in an email. A Dr. (doctor) is talking to a patient in the hospital...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was performing rounds at the
hospital one morning and while checking
up on a man I asked . . .' So how's your
breakfast this morning?' ' It's very good
except for the Kentucky Jelly. I can't seem
to get used to the taste.'. . . Bob replied.
I then asked to see the jelly and Bob produced
a foil packet labeled 'KY Jelly.'
