Re: Header


The new front end is very good - fresh and crisp. Love the colours and excellent pics.

However, think it would have been interesting to have a montage of all DP members, old and new, somewhere on the board.

Also, why not set up a DP pic album that members can post on to of anything they think others might like to see?

Featuring every DP member past and present is too much for a banner. And there are plenty of pics on The Highway Star if anyone really wants to see them!

As for a picture album, it's a nice idea, though I think people can just post their pics with their reviews in the relelvant section!

Now that I've had a chance to think about it, it's about the highest form of flattery one could give, even coming from a typical foriegner such as yourself.
Let's think about it for a minute shall we. Who is the most dominant country in the world?
right you are..America
Who is the most powerful and influential country in the world?...
Right again..America
Who is the most progressive country in the world?
WOW..your hitting 100% that's right..
America
Who is the first ones to offer aid in times of crisis, even to our enemies...
Oh your good..that's right..America
What is considered the greatest country in the world to live in today giving reason why so many foriegners move here?...
Again...America
 So to be called an American cliche, which in English would also be known as a stereotype, is a great honor indeed and there are many Americans here among us that would love that distinct honour, as well as being deserving of that honour.
 So..in closing, I would like to take this time to honour all of those unmentioned Americans who are also richly deserving of the title of Stereotypical American.
 Especially coming from one of those stereotypical, hands across the chest at an incredible BN show German.
 Thank you again as I wipe the tear from my eye.



now I understand why so many people all over the world cannot stand Americans.

There's been more than a fair share of America bashing in this forum (even from the 'moderators') - it's utter bullshit if you really look at it... America is made up of people of varying ethnicities, religions, politics, etc., and to put down the whole shows a very ignorant mind...

I don't blame Brian for going off - you people deserve it!

 But yet they still flock here in droves. Hmmm..I wonder why? Actually I don't because I already know why. And for those ignorant enough to base thier opinion on a biased newscast or retard leaders, then the problem is thiers and not mine as I don't give a flying FU^%$@#CK about what the rest of the world thinks of us.
 I'm American..and very..very proud to be one and there is no where else in the world where I would rather be.

Re: Header


I have nothing against Americans really

But I remember Ian Gillan once said that it is important to take a humility pill every day.

He said that in a different context having something different in mind. But when I read what you are saying and what other Americans are saying, when I analyze American mentality and judging it without any prejudice it seems to me that that is what Americans fail to do: to take a humility pill every day

no offence please

cheers

I think there is a misconception about America, and it is this -

Too many people have their opinion of Americans coloured by what they've seen in the films and what they see and hear in the media. I imagine that, like most people in most countries, ordinary Americans are pretty much like anyone else - working hard, raising families, saving, hobbying, sporting etc.

That said, I still think America could be a bit more humble, a bit more aware of the world outside of its borders in terms of altruism rather than what's in America's best interests.
