    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Impressive. I could do 3.5 of those.

      The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

          Yes with French being the 0.5.

          His Portuguese accent was worst of all, as far as I could tell, though I admit my “Luxembourgish” is pretty weak.

              Luxembourgish is really weird. About 20% of it sounds German.

                He must be either native Luxembourg or has a parent from there.

                Since @Kalus mentions it is only 20% German, it does not seem like a language that someone would pick up on random. LOL

                  I had a banker friend who ended up in Luxembourg. I think a lot of bankers end up there.

                    According to Wikipedia, Mr. Crowther was born in Luxembourg to a British father and German mother.

                    I was only joking
