Love it here in the USA.

Water runs out of the tap when I turn it on, food in the frig, vehicle takes me where I need to go, and working ain't that bad either.

We got it made!

Perhaps you'll get it, maybe not?





Have you heard the story of the three Vietnamese shop-keepers in NYC.

One day they were having a discussion in the store owned by one of the three. In due course one of their fellow countrymen came in and addressed them in their native tongue. All three stopped and one said to the new comer.........

This is America, here we do not speak our native tongue,

We speak Spanish!


As Yakob Smirnoff sez!


What a Country!


ya!

We had a great day here too.

Even for California.

In the interests of honesty..and full disclosure..I was having a Pilsner Urquell from Pilsen Czech with a piece of imported Danish cheese, when I so snarkily posted that.

100%!

While our record isn't spotless, we have generally tried to do whatever was right in the context of the day.

The USA is a place where a person can succeed if he/she is smart enough, works hard enough, and has a little luck.

Both my Father and FIL came from meager beginnings, neither graduated from high school, and both left estates valued in the millions of dollars. Hard work, a keen eye for recognizing opportunities before others did, plus enough luck to be right more often than wrong.

I know two Vietnamese sisters who came to the USA as boat people refugees. Nobody in their family spoke English and their parents worked hard jobs in the meat packing industry to build a better life. Those parents, Mr. & Mrs. Tran, emphasized education to their children and Van and Sam worked hard to be exceptional students, earning scholarships to attend college and graduate school. Both have risen within their respective companies because they are smart and they get the job done.

There are millions of stories likes these, where else but in America?
