Top 10 Reasons I'm Glad to be back in the U.S.

10. Wendy's Jr. Bacon Cheese Burgers

9. I can understand people SO much better.

8. I don't have to look up menu items in a dictionary to figure out exactly what I am ordering.

7. Mexican and Chinese restaurants in every strip center.

6. I can get in a taxi and know where I am going and know that I am not going to get ripped off.

5. Americans pretty much understand the concept of standing in line, rather than a free for all as were many lines in Italy.

4. People in the U.S. understand ones personal space, unlike the huge breasted woman in 95 degree heat that kept rubbing her boobs on my back (while we stood in line). GROSS!

3. The drivers in the U.S. realize that we are not all Italian racecar drivers (unlike the Taxi drivers in Italy)

2. The option to set the air conditioning as low as I want it. If I want it 68, I can have it that way as opposed to not going below 70 something when it is 95 outside.

1. Diet Coke is hands down better than Coke Lite any day.
