"These guys are strange" exclaimed Grandpa

"Why?" I opened my mouth. Too late.

"They constantly talk about only one country and only one sport-- boring sport if you ask me, and, get this, only one drink!"

"who?" I shouldn't have.

"and why in the world would you discuss only one month? Constantly? You tell me"

I couldn't. Maybe you can.

These folks are:

The people at NATO

Since:

Among the codewords in their phonetic alphabet only one is a country (INDIA), only one is a sport (GOLF), only one is a drink (WHISKEY*), and only one is a month (NOVEMBER).

My advice - perhaps you should:

Take up dancing - with both FOXTROT and TANGO, you'll have twice as much to talk about! ;-)

_{* Of course this assumes:}

_{We ignore 'Tango' as a brand name of soft drink...!}
