An American in Europe

05 November

You can take a girl out of the 'boro. . .


"So what park did you live in?"

-- That's the question one of my Bloomberg colleagues asked me at the American Embassy in London on election night.

Five time zones away, in Europe's largest city, surrounded by television screens and t.v. cameras, we chatted about my home town of Willingboro. My colleague got his start in journalism at the Burlington County Times, my home town paper.

We explained to a girl from Germany and another from Wales about 'Boro's park system, which names all streets in the same park by the same letter.

It really is a small world.
