Before the Infamous E-mail

But Does it “Count” with Pizza Delivery?

Every time we see The Countess DeLesseps on The Real Housewives of New York, we are reminded of the line spoken by the security guard in the 1984 movie”Moscow on the Hudson", when, speaking to Japanese tourists, he says, ”You in America, speak English!”.

Luanne Nadeau, a Native American from Connecticut, certainly seems to think this old European title means something in America.  It barely means anything in France, where is was conferred upon Ferdinand DeLesseps for his role in the construction of the Suez  Canal.  

Maybe the pizza delivery people in the Hamptons need to bone up on the Countess before the next delivery:
