If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
with just my children and my wife,
I'd thank my lucky stars
to be living here today,
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
and they can't take that away.

And I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.

From the lakes of Minnesota
to the hills of Tennessee,
Across the plains of Texas
from sea to shining sea.
From Detroit...

We continued from where we left off, Dan being stopped by the cops again.

Captain: Hold your fire!
Dan: *looks in mirror*
Captain: You're surronded. There's no place for you to go!
cop 67: *driving toward Dan*
Dan: *gets in front of 67th cop*
Captain: Shoot him!
Coppers: *shoot their own man*
Captain: WRONG GUY!

Meanwhile far away 6 girls were cruising in a '52 Lincoln Capri.

Girl 3: OMG, he's so cute, but I don't know if I should date him.
Girl 2: Why would you date a dog?
Girl 3: Because it's cute!

Back at the car chase

Dan: *exits park*
Captain: attention all units, the pursuit is not terminated, repeat...

THIS IS VERY URGENT AND NOT A JOKE! ALSO DON'T GOOF OFF!!!!

I really mean it! What would you be able to do if SOPA/TPP censors the internet? What would you be able to do if writing fanfics and drawing fanarts become illegal? What would you do if it's illegal to do a cover of your favorite song on YouTube? What would you do if downloading things from the internet (music, movies, TV episodes, etc) became illegal? What would you do if SOPA/TPP wins the war and takes away internet freedom? Net Neutrality is already dead so far, we can't risk the freedom of internet...

The final part. Dan is trying to trick the owner of the other Buick. He was talking in a british accent

Dan: Excuse me sir is this your car?
black man 2: Eeyup.
Dan: Would you mind stepping into the manager's office? We have to rewash it.
black man 2: Rewash the car?
Dan: It won't be too long. *gets in car*
Copper 1: All units, the suspect must be trying to change the appearance of his car. Keep your eyes open for a heavily damaged Buick Special, red in color.
Dan: *drives other Buick*
Copper 53: We have set up a roadblock by the car wash, and are checking for our suspect. He has grey hair, and...

The Aquarian Age of What

It was while I was having lunch today
at the next table
a man wearing one of those stick-on beards
and a yellow turtleneck sweater
was telling his friend
"Do you know the New York Times
just carried a story
quoting to scientists and ecologists
and they said that, in ten years
this planet will be uninhabitable for humans?"
and the friend answered
"Is that so? Well, let me tell you, buddy
it's uninhabitalbe out where I live right now
with all those blacks moving in close
and the neighborhood hippies
with their damned motorcycles and
peace posters
and the liquor store down the street

Nice park, isn't it?
Nice park, isn't it?
Hi guys, since my parents have been there 2 years ago, here are my reasons on why I would love to go to New York!

Diversity

The city is famous for diversity of different races, and this promotes tourism and I truly appreciate that. I also have a godmother who is staying there and would love to pay her a visit soon!

Broadway Musicals

It is the home of famous Broadway Musicals, I have seen 4 so far. I'm dying to see other musicals like Miss Saigon and Wicked just to same a few!

Shop Till You Drop

I am gradually love to shop and I hope that the stores have more choices than in Malaysia, another reason to be appreciative!

Nature Lover

There is also a famous park in which I would love to walk, it brings me joy and happiness when I'm down.

The American Dream

I love the United States and its culture, I hope to bring my friends there soon too.

Based off of the original Gone In 60 Seconds, sort of...

Welcome to St. Louis in the year 1961. Our main character is now driving his Lincoln Continental toward a railroad crossing, to find out how a train got derailed. "Morning Sarge" He said as he climbed out of his car. The workers of the railroad were not sure who this guy was, so he told them, "I'm Daniel Karr, St. Louis police department. I'm here to investigate what happened." One of the workers told him to go check on the engineer, he was sitting on the train tracks looking at his engine, a Norfolk & Western GP9. It was laying on...

Follow That Star in the East, Officer

Were you at the miracle of Woodstock?
the third largest city in New York State
surrounded by tiny rivers of hate
conceived in magic
born in music
and rocked in fields of alfafa, baby
Were you ther on the highway called Happy?
where the Jefferson Airplane streaked through the sky
explodin' like a comet over Philippine Pound
while the cattle were lowin' and roamin' around
diggin' the sound
and the Wise Men rode on a Day-Glo bus
"Oh, come along with us
and make the scene
where Groovy Way meets Gentle Path
at the intersection of Freedom
and we'll all take a bath in milk and...

Hearst Castle in California
Hearst Castle in California
I was browsing the internet recently, and at the bottom of my search result page were a few links. One of them said "American castles", I was interested and clicked. I found an article, on CNN, that was supposed to be about seven grand castles in the US. I usually tend to avoid comment sections, as they tend to be full of hate and general stupidity---and especially on something like CNN, but I decided to stroll through the comments.

I actually regretted doing this. There honestly wasn't a positive comment in sight. Many comments (if not all) said repeatedly "they're not castles!". Well, yeah,...

In the late 70s’ I had my dream holiday, me and John Wood booked a trip to America. We flew Freddie Laker (the innovator in cheap flights 1976-1982) to JFK New York where we stayed at the Y.M.C.A. In spite of Johns build he was somewhat scared in the city. We were both forever looking up at the huge skyscrapers and more than once I had to grab his arm as he stepped off the pavement without looking at the walk, don’t walk signs. We did all the tourist sites, the Empire State Building, The Chrysler building, Central park, Statue of liberty, Macys, we walked block after block, we had huge...

Continuing the car chase, we see Dan driving a somewhat damaged Buick Special away from the cops that are following him. I got bored writing like "ohqiegs" Said 03j0wti. So I'm writing like this from now on

Cop 1: rewthy
Cop 2: What?

Let's continue shall we?

toll guy: Hey, what the fuck?!
copper 75: The suspect just passed the poll.
copper 43: You mean toll?
copper 75: Screw you.
Dan: *enters Illinois*
copper 43: Suspect is out of St. Louis.
copper 2: 1 baker 11, we're right behind him.
copper 43: Hey, are you driving or is your boyfriend driving.
copper 2: He's not my boyfriend, just my partner....

One of the copper's '61 Impala
They did it, Dan & his team stole all the cars they needed, but there was one problem. One of the cars they stole was a Buick Special, and Terence made Dan return it for not being insured. Kenny went Pearl Harbor on Dan, and got beat up badly. Not only that, but he quit the team, and called the cops. So Fuck Kenny, let's continue with the story. Dan knew where he could find another Buick, which was insured. It was right next to the Gateway arch, but Dan didn't know that the police were watching him, thanks to someone that called for them. It was two police officers, one was a girl, and...

The tow truck
The tow truck
The next day was going great. They were stealing all the cars that they needed until, "We got a problem with the E Type." Kenny said. "What?" Dan angrily asked. "I overheard the police saying that they found out the serial numbers were changed." "Then we only have one option." "No Dan, we are not crushing that car!" Kenny shouted. "We have to! It's our only option." And with that, Dan left.

He stole a tow truck, and went to where the E type was. While putting the E type on the truck, a police car stopped by the dealership. The cop had a dog with him, and when he got out of his car, the dog...

The Buick Special
Dan called the three of his friends that were with him at the garage. They were now at the airport, about to steal two cadillacs, and a rolls royce when suddenly, "There it is." Dan whispered to Terence. One of the cars they had to steal was a Buick Special. Dan was walking toward it, and opened the door when suddenly, "Hey. What are you doing?" An old black man asked angrily. Dan apologized, and left "Wrong car." He said to the others. "That special we need is at another place." Percy told him. He showed Dan the adress, and the four continued stealing the first three cars.

Later that day,...

Los Angeles!
Los Angeles!
Hi guys, my name is Dee and I come from Malaysia, this is my very first article about this wonderful country. What I am going to write are some of the things I love about the US and which part that I would love to visit!

Los Angeles

I love this city as it is very clean, and it is full of diversity. I had been there 15 years ago before 9/11, many of the people are friendly and I hope to go there again after the general elections there.

New York City

I would love to go to New York as I have a godmother staying there. It is famous for Broadway Musicals and my favourites are The Lion King and Wicked,...

Natural gas is cheap cuz there's too much on the market

Petroleum wannabes have borrowed loads o' cash
to get a piece of that nasty Klondike

In North Dakota, they burn off $100 Million worth each year
just plain wasted in the air and the reason is,

everybody knows the necessary pipeline to move it around
would never remake the money it took to build


The promotion of Fracking made promises of
endless buried treasures but they failed to mention

Shale pockets don't last long
You gotta keep drilling wells every 2 miles

So now you start to understand
who really makes the serious doe in Gasland :

- Hole Diggers
- Toxic Mix Solvent Makers
- Loan Bankers

What if Cheney's Halliburton and all the guys at the Club
asked for a bailout in 4 years time

That would be so American-like
