Puzzled



Rick had that look on his face, the one that said, if I stay quiet what she says will make sense.

I had just said, Harry Fear, "Fear what a name for a reporter."

Fear was delivering a report from Gaza.

"He's really brave."

Rick's confused look did not go away.

"What does brave have to do with FIFA?"

"FIFA?"

We went back and forth as Rick tried to fathom what I said.  Finally it became clear. My Boston accent had struck again. FEAH was what he heard.
