Only in America!
-
Only in America! Only in America... can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance. Only in America... are there handicap parking places in front of a skating rink. Only in America... do banks leave both doors open but chain the pens to the counters. Only in America... do people order double cheese burgers, a large fry, and a "diet" coke. Only in America... do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and leave useless things and junk in boxes in the garage. Only in America... do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place. Only in America... do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight. Only in America... do we use the word "politics" to describe the process so well: "Poli" in latin meaning "many" and "tics" meaning "blood-sucking creatures".

Instead of bothering with all the cutting and individual eating, just pop a whole potatoe in the deep fryer, stuff it with ketchup, and serve on a stick... ...Actually, why don't they serve more fast food onastick? Here i am, driving 80mhp down the freeway with a double-chili-bacon-cheeseburger in one hand and the other full of fries, while trying to pick up the Coke with my wrists and drive with my knees. How the hell am i supposed to manage the ketchup?!? :omg: Why not serve it all on a skewer, so i can comfortably hold all the food in one hand while managing the beverage and condiments in the other? And people wonder why McD's is losing money... :rolleyes:

no, over here, "ti(c)k" is a .... hm, Babylon doesn't know a translation. Anyway, you have the bloodsuckers, we have the lunatics.
As James Bond in "die another day", Pierce Brosnan features traits handy in the dawning millenium. He fights without hesitation in a bewildering environment, trusts his high-tech-gadgets, and rather falls for beauty than pondering the political absurdities around him. [sighist]
