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 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 locked 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".
