Globalization!
« on: December 15, 2009, 10:44:49 PM »




IT'S A SMALL WORLD



Finally,  a definition of  globalization  that I  can understand and to
which I now can  relate:




Question: What  is the truest  definition of Globalization?



Answer: Princess Diana's death.



Question: How  come?




Answer :

An English  princess with an Egyptian  boyfriend

crashes in  a French tunnel, driving  a


German car


with  a Dutch  engine,


driven by  a Belgian


who  was drunk


on Scottish  whiskey, (check  the bottle before you change the  spelling),


followed closely  by


Italian Paparazzi,


on Japanese  motorcycles;


treated  by an American  doctor, using


Brazilian medicines.


This  is sent to you  by


a Canadian,


using American Bill  Gates's  technology,


and you're  probably reading this on your  computer,


that uses  Taiwanese  chips, and a


Korean monitor,


assembled by


Bangladeshi workers


in  a Singapore  plant,


transported by  Indian truck  drivers,


hijacked by  Indonesians,


unloaded  by Sicilian  longshoremen,


and trucked  to you by Mexican  illegals....  . . . . . .

That,  my friends, is Globalization.

Very good Jerry.

I had a German roommate some years ago who defined German culture as "watching an American movie on a Japanese TV set".

Cheers,

Mike

Anytime I see something screech across a room and latch onto someone's neck, and the guy screams and tries to get it off, I have to laugh, because what is that thing?
