Only in America

"Only in America"...

- can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance

- are there handicapped parking places in front of a skating rink

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

- do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters

- do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and leave useless things and junk in boxes in the garage

- 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

- do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight

- do we use the word "politics" to describe the process so well: "poli" in latin meaning "many" and "tics" meaning "blood-sucking creatures".
