mild humor for my buds

1. Only in America......can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance.
2. Only in America......are there handicapped 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 cheeseburgers, 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 lettering.

I liked the one about handicapped parking spaces at a skating rink.

Not that they can't be used by persons with a disability, but it reminded me of when I drove tractor-trailers. Down in Florida, the rest areas on the interstates have - I kid you not - handicapped parking spaces for tractor-trailers, despite the fact that, under the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, most disabilities for which such a parking space would be required disqualify people from getting commercial drivers licenses.

Go figure . . .

LOL... good stuff

:lol: Great post, Mrs. T! :dg:

:roflol: :roflol: :roflol:

Very funny! The only problem is I have a complex about the answering machine and call waiting! I guess no ones really brought that to my attention before?

:) nice. I've heard some of those in an email before as well, good stuff. God bless the USA.
