Twig says, "I hear you're hiring a mexican gentleman to help in your garden." Ted says, "Don't you know any Americans, nana?" Agatha says, "I do have an able bodied, fully-documented granddaughter and grandson." Twig says, "What's your new yard care professional's name?" Ted says, "Can we get him ice tea?"

If your ancestors crossed the land bridge from Asia20,000 odd years ago, you’re Americans. The ones left wish they’d built a wall in 1491.

Last time I looked on a map the continent of North America included Canada, the United Stares, and Mexico. If you include Central and South America you can add in at least 16 more. Oops, then there’s the Caribean. And don’t forget The Bahamas, Turks and Caicos, and Greenland. Sorry, Bermuda doesn’t really count.
