I say “Thank G-d” and have never been given funny looks or comments.
Funny story:
My sister was in seminary and we went to visit her. We were staying at the LaRomme Hotel. Al Gore was there (for some reason, the King David was booked solid for something else and he ended up there). Anyway, they cleared out the lobby but we went up to a floor where the hallway overlooked the lobby. As Al Gore walked through, my sister called down “Hi Mr. Gore!” He turned and looked up and said “How are you doing?” to which she responded “Baruch Hashem!” The Israeli soldiers with him were laughing hysterically.
