One of my sons noted to me recently that when an American puts his hand on his heart and says, “I’m American”, he means something different to the rest of us speaking of our nationality.

Photos Needed
I’m starting a series of IDIOT TESTS to see if I can help some people get their grey-cells working.
So, I’m looking for some photos of people doing something STUPID!
