"At home, he dropped his Moroccan briefcase, hung up his Scottish tweed coat, removed his Italian shoes and Egyptian cotton shirt, then donned a Hong Kong robe and matching slippers from Taiwan." "More comfortable now, he poured a cup of hot Brazilian coffee into an English coffee mug, set a Mexican place mat on an Irish linen tablecloth atop a Danish table varnished with linseed oil from India. Then he filled his Austrian pipe with Turkish tobacco, lit it, and picked up a Chinese made ball-point pen with which he wrote a letter to his congressman demanding to know why the United States has such an unfavorable balance of trade."

| Spam King | I'd buy American-Made products, but I can't find any... The Honda Accord is made in Marysville, Ohio. The Chevy Impala is made in Canada...  |

| No Chance Outside | Why don't you? The English teaching market is huge here so as long as you have a college education and you're white, you can earn around $30,000 the first year (possibly even after taxes) and earn a lot more the 2nd year depending on how you sell yourself. The more years you give it you could be making up to $60,000 or more. Of course that depends on your effort but you know what I mean. |
