Only in America

Only in America... can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance.

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

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 cheese burgers, large fries, and a diet Coke.

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

Only in America... do they leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.

Only in America... do they use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so they won't miss a call from someone they didn't want to talk to in the first place.

Only in America... do they buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

Only in America... do they 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.

Turkey doesn't cause your food coma...
Turkeys may have won the heart of Benjamin Franklin, but they’ve been getting a bad rap ever since — often blamed as the reason people become sleepy after the Thanksgiving meal. This chemical in the turkey is blamed for the desire to nap. But the National Center for Biological Information says it’s not Tryptophan, a chemical present in turkey that’s known for inducing a desire to nap that’s to blame. Pure tryptophan must reach the brain for it to induce sleep not the traces present in turkey. It's the holiday hustle and bustle that gets you tuckered out.

....but overeating does!
During the traditional Thanksgiving meal, the average American consumes 3,000 calories, much more than most people’s bodies are accustomed to digesting. As a result of this glut of food waiting to be digested, your body shifts energy to digestion, which leaves you tired. See, it’s gluttony not turkey to blame for your exhaustion!
