Hebrew National hot dogs come in packages of 7. :coffee2

This one has always scared me to death!! :toofunny :killinme

That's as bad as some drivers with cell phones

Oh man, I'm glad you said "SOME", because I was going to have to get all defensive. (Were you driving behind me this morning???)

:ursofunny

Dave Barry once said, '' Miami is the only place they will pass you in the car wash!" too funny

Was that you!?

:jolly

AND ONLY IN AMERICA where we have people on an Oneness APOSTOLIC forum that will argue on does it really take that to be saved. But this is America Jack and we love it

Those are the best.

Only in America
 

Yes, Hebrew National Beef Franks are in my frig right now ready

for me to make hot dogs, or chili dogs or other. We do not eat a

lot a processed meat but those are really tasty!

Why are they called Hebrew? I've never heard of them.

Because they're Kosher? Just a guess.

That's what I thought but don't know for sure.

i googled it

The only diff between Hebrew National and other beef dogs is really just the "Kosher" sticker....if they are still doing that. Nathans I think used to be kosher too but last time I looked they lacked the seal. HN are very expensive dogs compared to others

There's nothing odd about a handicap spot in front of an Ice rink

Not really. People come to watch games, and some folks who can't walk well can still skate... It still made me laugh though. I'm quite sacrilegious sometimes.
:stirpot

It's just the thought that there are some crazy things out there :toofunny

Oh does THIS bring back a nightmarish incident, when I was pregnant with my 2nd son I got the WORST bladder infection sooo bad I could BARELY walk., and the pharmacy people, possibly at doctors orders(?) said that it HAD TO BE only ME to pick up the prescription so I had to WALK all the way back to the back to get it (no drive thru at that pharmacy either waaay back then they weren't as automatic as they are now) and I distinctly remember like it was yesterday, taking every single precious step s l o w l y
hurting very very much all the way there, it took 4ever! I think that was a very mean thing to do to me. I dont' know what was so special about that particular medicine that it had to be only the sick one to sign for it.

This was to be funny stuff but I'm sure it wasn't funny to you then.

No it was initially funny but it hit close to home, too.
It is IRONIC that only in America presumably, things like this happen not necessarily on purpose., either.

bump

Re: Only in America
 

how come?

Re: Only in America
 

How come what?

Re: Only in America
 

why did you bump this, iow.

Re: Only in America
 

I think this thread is funny, but I can't think of anything to go along with it. Maybe you or someone else can.

Re: Only in America
 

lol well i can think of several, but they would mostly only upset people who are secure in their disillusion, imo...

Only in America do we combine "One nation under God" and "pledging allegiance to a flag," most likely. etc

Re: Only in America
 

I'd love to hear them, but I am just that way... even if they likely are not funny.

Re: Only in America
 

ha well they'd all be pretty dark; only in America do we fund our own downfall, etc...who can admit that they aren't being used as a profit center to feed the maw in some way...
