[Hello from a new U.S. listener!]

I'm another American who's been listening to Radio 1 on Sirius off and on for the past few weeks.

Some things I've learned:

• "Space on Abeetha" is not a boat, but a dance club on an island off the eastern Spanish coast
  
• Paris Hilton had a doppelganger,
  
• Everybody loves to "text from their mow-biles" (it's uncommon to do that with a cell phone in the USA or Canada)
  
• The word brilliant needs to be used more in everyday conversation in North America,
  
• College entrance exam results seem to be a big deal.
