Let me say this about that. For all our faults, Americans live in the greatest nation in the world.  I do not make this statement lightly.  Unless you have actually resided in another country, you can never have a full appreciation of all our shortcomings – and our greatness. What makes America great?  Our wealth? […]

Let me say this about that. Omar, a good friend of mine came by last week to borrow a set of tools.  When he walked into my house, he asked why I was wearing different colored socks.  I told him that it kept the purple dragons away.  Omar:  “Shambo, you been smoking peyote again?  ……. wearing different colored […]

Let me say this about that. Quickly now!  Tell me three things you know about The Netherlands.  Can’t think of three?  OK, how about one thing?  Fact is, most Americans don’t know a helluva lot about The Netherlands.  If you use the term ‘Holland’, we tend to revert back to our grammar school days to […]

Let me say this about that. Americans are a sports-loving bunch.  Show the average American guy a game that involves a ball and you can be sure of one thing … he’s gonna bet on it.  Seriously, we love our sports and our interests vary widely from baseball to dog racing to figure skating to horse […]

Let me say this about that.
