Well, deer certainly do that in the US....
And of course, up here in Canada, wild moose roam the street
as parka-clad civilians dash from igloo to igloo dodging hockey pucks,
Seperatists, and errant lacross shots (the nation's _official_ sport!),
chugging their 'I Am Canadian'-Labatt beer, listening to Alanis Morrisett
(shudder) and The Hip.
And let's not forget that down here, in Mexico, we're all strolling down the
street in mariachi outfits, carrying our guitars and serenading every woman in
town, whose house is Colonial style and has a wrought iron railing around its
balcony, and that we all drink tequila and go to sleep with those thick wool
sarapes, and that outside Mexico City every single town is made of adobe houses,
and you can see horseriders with bandoliers full of bullets. Oh, and let's not
forget that everybody will call you "se���or" or "se���orita," either, and that the
national music stars are quartets that sing very badly.
And tacos are just as inedible as those in the US, too.

you've been watching too many American films whose stories play out in Mexico.)
