: Adam Curry returns to his other country, America, and starts waving the flag.

Being back in the states, if only for a few days, really helped me re-appreciate just how wonderful the country is. I found that I really have missed alot of america’s uniqueness. Little things, like how a waiter introduces his/herself and announces that (s)he’ll be ‘taking care of you tonite’….

And what other country in the world has happy hour; two drinks for the price of one?

Above all, most folks in the US have a positive mind set and an optimistic outlook on life. Something I no longer detect at all in the netherlands, were I spend most of my time, and it appears to be a disturbing trend in the rest europe.
