Only In America....

[Dutchy]

ONLY IN AMERICA:

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.

Only in America......do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, 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 put our useless junk in the garage.

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 'bloodsucking creatures'.

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

EVER WONDER ..

Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin ?

Why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed? !

Why don't you ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"?

Why is "abbreviated" such a long word?

Why is it that doctors call what they do "practice"?

Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?

Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?

Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?

Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?

Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?

Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?

You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?!

Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?

Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?

If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?

If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?

Actually there is a reason for that. The fat in the cheeseburger doesnt make you fat, its the suggar. Because a regular coke will rise your bloodsugar and your body will produce insulin to lower your bloodsuggar. This reaction has the side effect, that it leads to storrage of fat in your body.

I also eat a lot of food, steak, burgers, fries, nachos, pringles and all that kind of stuff. Still I'm not a fatty, because I dont drink 2 gallons of coke every day!

That is VERY interesting. Never knew!

Always nice to learn something (and I too love the burgers but coke LIGHT is my preference.....normal coke gives me a weird feeling of sugar coated teeth)

To quote a famous tv personality "why do they call it taking a dump, when you are leaving a dump? I mean, you're not actually taking it anywhere.."

Anyone know who?

[censored]! You are not a "fatty" because you are a young active man with a metabolism to boot. Wait till you hit thirty and still have the same eating habbit look who will be a fatty then. (Yep, this is from first hand experience ).

but it is true that hight bloodsuggar leads to a production of a stuff that has a side effect of storing fat in your body - at least they told us this at school back then. I think my wrestling coach told me that
