USA Top Five List


Top five lists are great, because you can't put everything - only the most essential things. I would have listed the internet as one of the top ten, but it would have to beat out something else. And seeing that it is becoming a tool to track everyone and their preferences, I can't rank it higher than the things that are already listed. More important than the things on the list are the kinds of people who worked to develop these things, and that's what makes the USA great in my mind.

1. Jazz
2. Funk
3. Martinis
4. Bloody Marys
5. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission

If this were a top ten list, it would include soul music, variety and availability of ethnic foods, and the internet - but it's not, it's a top five list. I encourage any of you who are reading this to try to make a top five list of your country, your city or town, and rediscover things you like.

Hmmm... Good thought. I think I'll wait until I'm depressed to do that, though. Might perk my spirits up.

(Personally, I like blues better than jazz or funk.)

Ha! That list is fantastic. Two types of music, two types of drink and a social program. Wonderful.
