I was mailing a book to Bahrain yesterday. The address ended with "Kingdom of Bahrain". The post office clerk kept saying the postal machine wouldn't recognize the address. Some hoo-haa ensued, then I determined he was typing in "Kingdom".

I suggested helpfully with a straight face, "Try typing in Bahrain."

That worked.

Btw, he said he didn't know where that is. I said, "That's where the King wears a turban."
