But yes, we are the only fucking country on the planet. Registered in
1778, with the "United League of Fucking Nations", the United States is
the only fucking country on this planet. Britain applied for memebership
once, however, no one considers that sort of fornication as "fucking".
And if you consider that the United States is the last great
"superpower" country, combined with the McDonaldization of European and
Asian societies, perhaps on the grand scale, it should be observed and
discussed with more relevance than other countries. Where the US is today,
Europe will be tomorrow. Admittedly, this is broadbased and simplified,
but I'm a bit tired of listening to foreigners whine about US/Internet
domination. We did build the damn thing after all.

Here I thought New Zealand did. *shrugs* I call up Echelon and ask them
what I was supposed to do this week, its a handy reminder service.
Oh, and a brief word of advice? Learn to spell. Really adds to the insult
credibility level. www.dictionary.com might be a good starting resource.
