Your car is German. Your pizza is Italian. Your falafel is Lebanese. Your democracy is Greek. Your coffee is Brazilian. Your movies are American. Your tea is Tamil. Your shirt is Indian. Your oil is Saudi Arabian. Your electronics are Chinese. Your number's Arabic, your letters Latin. And you complain that your neighbour is an immigrant? Pull yourself together!' Copy and paste if you're against racism

5. I stole this one from somebody yesterday: |

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have $49.00 today! If you purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG, you would have $33.00. If you purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers, you would have $0.00 today. But if you purchased $1,000 worth of beer, drank all the beer, and turned in the aluminum cans for recycling, you would have $214.00. Therefore the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg Plan

Toyotas are unbeatable (in my extended family and circle of friends) as far as gas mileage and years of use before any major repair was needed on the vehicle (10 years or more on EVERY Toyota any of us has owned).
