Since I am programming your viewing habits...


National Geographic has a 'reality' television show where an American family is sent
to another country for 9 days to 'experience'
what life is like for the native citizens.

They are paired up with a family and introduced to the customs, food, lifestyles......

LOLOLOL,
I do not know what these people expect when they sign up for this program.

Should there ever be the situation where people have to 'rough it'-plant, harvest food, raise and slaughter animals, cook and live off the land-
I won't worry.......then we can cross off about 99.9% of the USA.

Most of us think 'roughing it' means forming our own hamburger patties and cutting a lettuce, as opposed to opening up a cello bag with pre fab Ceasear salad in it or picking up a package of hambuger patties, the kind with the wax paper in between the meat.


Most American families aren't soft.....


they are liquid.






:confused:

I seen a show like that last night! It was hilarious! Sure wasn't what they were thinking.

My husband really got a kick out of it, he thought it was funny. I just hope he don't want to do this. I am used to the softer side of life now.

I'm a liquid, high maintenance, materialistic, lazy, industrialized, capitalist American.


Thank God.
You can rough it all you like in the wilderness or third world countries. I'll be at the Hilton if you need me.

There is a show here at the moment of a German family who spends the winter in Siberia. They won't be the same when they come back.

*shaking when thinking of the climate*
