Greek Stereotypes

Greeks:
Do not eat pita all the time
Do not have any dishes with Phyllo dough, except spanikopita
Do not paint every building baby blue
Do not eat Hummus

Are a big hearted people who want nothing more than for you to enjoy yourself
Are a bit pushy...but not in a malicious way
Savor life
Are proud of who they are...maybe to a fault
Are shrewd business people and are always looking for an angle
Aren't judgmental

I think it's safe to say that I like Greeks.

PS: I also met no one named Zorba, did not see a gypsy, and not once did I hear "If I were a rich man"

And if you had, Sticky would be PISSED -- probably moreso than the matzah/tamale thing.
