Ten Great Things about America

Monday, July 11th, 2005

A - Abundance.
No kanchathanam in anything. Niagara la irundhu Viagra varaikum.

B - Big
Think big.I really admire and envy the American’s ability to think on a scale that is mindblowing. Namallum 13 bridge kattinome Madrasla hmm:( Sorry adhai ellam bridge na soneen? Adhellam overhead platform.

C - Creativity
Adhu epdi, anything original especially in matters relating to technology has its origin in America.

D - Diversity
Diversity. Yendha oorunaalum seri. Endha skin color naalum seri. sarakku irundha seri type philosophy.D also stands for DOLLAR. Dollar na adhu USD dhaan.

E - Education.
Harvard, MIT, UCLA, Yale, Wharton - the list is endless. I bet America has more Noble laureates than any other country thanks to its education system.

F - Freedom of speech
Engey namma oorile Fahrenheit 911 madhiri onnu try panni paarunga. appa theriyum :-) Chomsky America vai pathi thittinadhukku inneram namma oora irundhirundha minimum he would have been ousted from MIT.

G - Growth prospects
The kind of growth prospects that America provides to an average, hard working human being is awesome. The honour and dignity bestowed upon your skill no matter where you are from is truly inspiring.”

H - Hollywoood. Need i say more?

I - Innovation
I don’t think Silicon Valley is possible is possibe in any other country. I don’t think Apple, Google, Microsoft could have survived in any other country. This is one country where a failure is not a failure at all. A failure is just an outcome accepted on some decision taken.

J - Junta
The spirit of the American citizen be it the way he fought Britishers 200 odd years ago or the way they handled 9/11 is inspiring. And the ability of the typical American to be in awe about anything from Kamasutra to Yoga is a testimony to their ability to learn and grow. Hail the American spirit.

No comments section:
Lawyers in America:
As usual koncham hyper parties. They have been used to strangle the voices of the individuals by many a US corporates.

Medical System:
Ungalukku udambu seri illainu doctor kitte appointment kaetta unga payyano ponna dhaan parka mudiyum.

Law and Order:
Nothing great about it. Summa bore adicha sudaraangappa.

Strictly no section:
Idhile marandhu poi kooda Afghanistan, Bush, Condeleszca Rice, Donald Rumsfield, Colin Powell, Enduring Freedom, Desert Storm, Imperialistic Foeign Policy, Oil wells, Iraq, Collateral Damage, Vietnam, Idhu madhiri kalisadaingalai serthudadheenga.

As a country, India has a lot to learn from US and US citizens have quite a bit to learn from Indian society too. I think as human beings we should think in terms of adapting the positive, good traits of all countries and cultures and strive to grow as human beings.

Therefore, it is hereby submitted that PK truly appreciates all the great things that US of A deserves to be applauded, worshipped and emulated.

Any additions folks?
Please treat this as an open tag. Irony isn’t it? The most vociferous America Basher is starting a tag on ten things that impress the most in US :-)
