Most Used American Word: More

have any of you seen the advertising on nbc for their new reality show called celebrity chef showdown or something? it's pretty telling about american society. here is the lead-in to the commercial: "there's only one thing that can get people this worked up...food!" yea, not global warming. not de facto annihilation of the 4th amendment. not environmental destruction. not potential global nuclear war. no, it's food. because that is what americans are all about these days: their fried burrito-wrapped caesar salads and their tube-cooked egg, rubber sausage patty, greasy bacon and partially hydrogenated cheese by-product piled in a sugar-drenched, deep-fried krispy kreme donut.
