A little comic relief.....

America is great and all, but you can't help but laugh
at some of the ironic things you can find in America......

The top ten list of things only found in America:


1. Only in America.....can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance, or the cops!


2. Only in America......are there handicap parking places in front of a skating rink.


3. Only in America......do drugstores make the sick people 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 popcorn, nachos, and a DIET Coke at the movies.


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


6. Only in America......do we leave cars worth tens of thousands of dollars in the driveway, and put our piles of 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, while hot dog buns come 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'' being a name for ''bloodsucking creatures''.


10. Only in America......do we have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.
