The Fourth

I recently commented on the terrible state of Chinese manufactured goods, but I must retract a bit. Fireworks and pain medications are both universally manufactured there are they both seem to be pretty good, at least the illegal ones.

I find it somewhat fitting that, to celebrate the most American of holidays, my family drove our Japanese car to a makeshit wooden stand to buy Chinese made fireworks. We also drove to the big box supermarket, WINCO, to buy Mexican eggplants to grill on the Weber, manufactured in Canada.

This is wholly American, isn't it?
