Only in the US
Only in the US......Is the Senate of US sustained by protocol, alcohol and Geritol
Only in the US......can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance.
Only in the US......are there handicap parking places in front of a skating rink.
Only in the US......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.
Only in the US.....do people order double cheese burgers, large fries, and a diet coke.
Only in the US......do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.
Only in the US......do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
Only in the US......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 the US......do we buy hot dogs in packages of twelve and buns in packages of eight.
Only in the US.....do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.
Only in the US......do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.
But not this......can you buy Tylenol containing codine without a prescription. In fact, Jane Fonda was once stopped at the U.S. border for trying to take it home.
