Globalisation

Snowstorm
By Snowstorm

Who gets time for making up something like this.........not me........

 

Question : What is the truest definition of Globalization ?


Answer : Princess Diana's death .


Question : How come ?

 

Answer : An English princess with an
Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a
French tunnel,

driving a
German car with a
Dutch engine,

driven by a
Belgian who was drunk on
Scottish whisky:

followed closely by
Italian Paparazzis in
Japanese motorcycles;

treated by an
American doctor, using
Brazilian medicines.

 

And moreover this is sent to you by a
Indian,

 

using
American
(Bill Gates's) technology,

and you're probably reading this on your computer,

that use
Taiwanese chips,

and a
Korean monitor,

assembled by
Bangladeshi workers in a
Singapore plant,

transported by
Pakistan lorry-drivers,

hijacked by
Indonesians,

unloaded by
Sicilian longshoremen,

and trucked to you by
Mexican illegals.... .

That, my friend, is
"" Globalization ""

 

Hope u got it...??

I'll give you Jason he was usless anyway, Leave Kylie out of it she has had a bad run, First of all we didn't want to claim her then she won here grammy and all of a sudden she was an ozzie again, Steve(R.I.P.) at least he started putting his money were his mouth was by buying up huge plots of land in the amazon and various jungles of the world, for presevation puposes. Vegemite well agreed its an aquired taste but not as bad as marmite and at least you can use it for cooking stock if you run out of stock cubes.

I've always said Australia should become exclusive. I guess the good thing is we always manage to stay just underneath the radar enough that we generally don't get blamed for anything.
