Oh, that creepy fan gal
If I were a mind reader then I'm afraid there might be at least one person I'd catch thinking those thoughts the next time we run into each other. Well, and I don't understand what I did wrong. See, it happened the day after the Phillies clinched their division title and I was riding, what should we call it - the metro or PTA or - a bus! Then I noticed another passenger wearing the said team's hat and I figured he would be a real fan and perhaps a real American and therefore happy to chat about the game. I was wrong. There was something that made him basically run away from me after we got off at the same stop. Well, he could have filed it off as another odd foreign experience and be done with it but no - we happened to ride on the same bus again, only two days later.

You did the right thing, babe!
so i take it you are an american living in estonia? my wife and i moved over here two years ago, from garrett county, maryland. myself, i was born in estonia but lived most of my adult life in the US. after being away for straight eight years without any visits, i find myself often surprised or dumbfounded by somethings regardless of my heritage :) anyway, what i wanted to say was, don't take the logos on clothing at the same value here... lots of stuff comes from so called humanitarian aid, aka rag stores in the US. i once even saw an old estonian dude wearing a shirt with USMC logo on it and i doubt he was ever in the Marines :)
by the way, what part of the states are you from?
