IJMC Only In America

                    IJMC - Only In America

The first one here should probably be the last one...it's the most 
telling to me. Although I miss the days, the days when if you passed a 
Domino's Pizza delivery vehicle you KNEW you were driving too fast. 
Nowadays, it just means you're probably speeding. <sigh>         -dave







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 people order double cheese burgers, a large fry, and a
 diet coke.

Only in America...do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to
 the counters.

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".
