Who decided that fast food was positive?

How can you be both a beacon to others, as well as be despised by others at the same time? Interesting isn't it...

i must admit, we do tend to let the whole, "running the world" thing go to our heads.

J - I guess it is a despised beacon to the world. Sort of like Malcom Fraser's (former prime minister) fence. He owned a farm and it had it's own road sign so you could turn off the main road and relieve youself on his fence (it was electrified from memory so I guess he got the last laugh). It was a beacon that just called out ...
P - I think it is like the New, Improved, Original, Better Than Ever, Brighter, Super, Washing Powder. The more adjectives they use, the more you pay. Double if they use the same adjective (like super) twice. That is why we (friend, ally and total kumquat) had to pay for the ammunition and bombs that the Americans asked us to fire at / drop on / launch towards the Iraqis.
Here, sonny, borrow my slingshot. See if you can hit that guy over there. Wow. You can. That's so cool. Have another shot. OK. That will be $100 - $50 per shot.

It wasn't just the two words together, what gets me is 'powerful' and 'USA' in the same sentence. I think it should be 'USA' and 'wannabe'...:grin

PRW - I am just having this mental picture of a non-powerful superpower :-) Nope.
JABOOBIE - I still think I would rather have the USA than say France as a superpower.
