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... are there drive-up ATMs with the braille buttons. Only in America... do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while cigarettes are sold up front! Only in America... do people order double cheese burgers, large fries, and a diet coke! Only in America... is there a box for a "blind" person to check on their tax return. 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 junk 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 means "many" and "tics" means "blood-sucking creatures." Only in America... can a homeless combat veteran live in a cardboard box and a draft dodger live in the White House! If anyone has more, by all means... |

I actually bought some hot dogs the other day and was pleased to see that the buns and dogs both came in packs of 8 or 12. No more trying to find the least common multiple.

I buy the Ballpark "singles" Franks that are individually wrapped. I think hotdogs taste better when just opened verses aging in a ziplock bag. And I don't like dealing with all that "hotdog juice" that comes in the big packages.
But the other day, I had the jones for a "stadium" type hot dog so I bought some Ballpark "Grill master" weenies that come, get this, 5 to a package! |
