What's with you Yanks anyway? Europe hasn't relied on rodents for
weather prediction since the Enlightenment. No wonder Airbus sells
more planes than Boeing, the US Dollar's in the dumpster and
everything else in the US is made in China.

How's that 8.9% unemployment rate (for the European Union) treating you?
What's it at in Germany? 11.4%?

Your economic growth is 2.2%...about half the 4.3% that the US is
experiencing. That's gotta irk you.

Some recent headlines:

" European Union abandons ambitious goals for economy "

" German Joblessness Rises as Benefits Are Reduced"

"Euro zone jobless rate rises to 8.9 percent"



Maybe I should have said, "Europe is *almost* perfect!"
