Europe Versus America

Europe: Realism
American: Optimism

Europe: Speaking voice.
America: Singing voice.

Europe: Edith Piaf
America: Britney Spears

What?

Europe: multi-lingualism
America: lack of pretension

America- opportunity
Europe- history

For the record, we had history way before you guys came. :wink:

Europe - Budapest
America - The Declaration of Independence

Europe (Western Europe, anyway): more social equality.
USA: better service.

Europe: Most of my stuff is there.
America: All my stuff that isn’t in Europe is there.

Okay, for reals…ummm…

Europe: long lunches.
America: big breakfasts.

E: Those enormous squares in the center of major cities. Those are brilliant and should be emulated everywhere.

A: The sense that anything’s possible. Whether good or bad, sane or not, SOMEone’s trying anything you can imagine.

There’s every chance that this was the entire point of that post, but I’d just like to note how wonderfuly ironic it is that RandMcnally is being accused of not being well-travelled.

Europe: You can into places like cathedral towers (Ulm) that would be off limits in America (“everybody stay with the group.”)

America: Nature that’s still natural, not like a tended garden.

Europe: hotter men.
America: hotter women.

Europe Euros

America Dollars

Gotta disagree with that. Europe has some seriously hot women. :smiley:

It may be a matter of taste. I rarely have the same taste in women as woman-loving men do.

Europe: Canada
America: Mexico

Europe: F1
America: NHRA

Europe: Beer
America: Heck of a trading partner

Ice is readily available here, although you won’t find ice machines in your hotel that often if ever.

Europe: beer
America (OK, California): that other popular intoxicant that shan’t be named here
