I really do love this country, but...
1. Only in America... can a pizza get to your
house faster than an ambulance.
2. Only in America... are there handicap parking places in front of
a skating rink.
3. Only in America... do drugstores make the sick walk all the way
to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy
people can buy cigarettes at the front.
4. Only in America... do people order double cheese burgers, large
fries, and a diet coke.
5. Only in America... do banks leave both doors open and then chain
the pens to the counters.
6. Only in America... do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in
the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
7. 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.
8. Only in America... do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns
in packages of eight.
9. Only in America... do we use the word 'politics' to describe the
process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning
'bloodsucking creatures'.
10. Only in America... do they have drive-up ATM machines with
Braille.
