William: In terms of cultural differences Joe, I mean like there are lots and lots of cultural differences aren't there between the UK and the States... Joe: Yeah. I think it was Bill Bryson who said that Americans live like they're never going to die, whereas 1 the British live like they're gonna die tomorrow. And I think what that's a reference 2 to is the fact that in the United States we are almost obsessed 3 with trying to be as healthy as we can, to build up big homes, big cars, earn as much money as we can. And I think one of the things that I really loved about living in England is that people here really enjoy the simpler things like good beer, good conversation in a pub and enjoying yourself, you know, while you... while you can.
