Waltzing Matilda
I already thought it was a little strange that Bill Bryson's book about Australia is called "In a Sunburned Country" in the States but is called "Down Under" in the UK and Australia. I mean, it's the same language, why not have the same title? Anyway, I enjoyed seeing the German version yesterday: "Frühstück mit Kängurus" (Breakfast with Kangaroos). I don't know why, but for some reason that made me laugh. (Incidentally, it's a must-read if you've ever been to Australia or would like to visit someday or just want a good laugh.)
