THW: Germany′s army of volunteers for disaster relief

My favorite "Americans vs Europeans" joke:

Q: What's the difference between an American and a European person?

A: A European thinks 100 km is a large distance. An American thinks a hundred years is a long time.

I definitely qualify as a European in this regard; "only 6 hours" is super long to travel for me.

I like that one a lot. My other favorite (as an American) is:

Q: What do you call a person who speaks two languages?

A: Bilingual

Q: What do you call a person who speaks one language?

A: American

I recently read it takes around 12 hours just to drive through Texas, the same time it takes to drive from Munich to Barcelona.
