I had to look Sheldon Cooper up. I had never heard of him, because I never watch TV. But I'm not sure being called his twin is a compliment. From Wikipedia "Sheldon exhibits a strict adherence to routine, a total lack of social skills, a tenuous understanding of irony, sarcasm, and humor, and a general lack of humility or empathy."
So how does an Odessa girl know who this guy is?
Its not the first time this has happened. I met a girl in Kiev a couple years ago - who taught English to aeronautical engineering students in Kiev. She asked me to do a lecture on America and American life for them and to take questions afterward. A lot of the questions had to do with the TV series "House", which apparently they had been seeing a season or two behind.
Again - since I never watch TV I had no Idea who "House" was.
jet, i don't have TV, but i know who Sheldon is!!! Maybe I'm not odessa girl, maybe I'm Pasadena guy?
And i think blu doesn't need your explanation of who Sheldon is :)

I’m sure that even after acknowledging he (jet) knows nothing about it,,,,, he still gave an hour long lecture on “House” and how it impacts the American family.
Ukraine has many of the same TV shows that we watch, but some series are a year or two behind. They even get the same movies. I took 4 or 5 of the latest movies I could find,,, my girl had already seen all of them!
I've known Sheldon Cooper for a couple years now ;) Though having a girlfriend that can not be touched or you break the girlfriend and boyfriend contract agreement is a little to much!
