What is the truest definition of Globalization?

Subject: GLOBALIZATION

Question: What is the truest definition of Globalization?

Answer: Princess Diana’s death.

Question: How come?

Answer: An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a French tunnel, driving a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whisky, (check the bottle before you change the spelling) followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles; treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines.

This is sent to you by an Englishman, using Bill Gates’s technology, and you’re probably reading this on your computer, that use Taiwanese chips, and a Korean monitor, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant, transported by Indian lorry-drivers, hijacked by Indonesians, unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen, and trucked to you by Mexican illegals…..

That, my friends, is Globalization

Earthquake in Mexico this morning (poor taste but a must)

A big earthquake with the strength of 8.1 on the Richter scale has hit Mexico.
Two million Mexicans have died and over a million are injured.
The country is totally ruined and the government doesn’t know where to start with asking for help to rebuild.
The rest of the world is in shock.
Canada is sending troopers to help the Mexican army control the riots.
Saudi Arabia is sending oil.
Other Latin American countries are sending supplies.
The European community (except France) is sending food and money.
The United States, not to be outdone, is sending Five million replacement Mexicans.
God Bless America

Wherefore, may God raise you from death by the power of the resurrection, and also from everlasting death by the power of the atonement, that ye may be received into the eternal kingdom of God, that ye may praise him through grace divine.

2 Nephi 10:25

Depressing how the first post to my family forum is the death of my grandma Skowronek. I have no words to describe what is going through my head right now, but I wanted to at least acknowledge her passing and my recoginition of the wonderful and loving great/grandma that she was to me and my family.

Here are the references to her obiturary I’ve found so far:

Update

Apparently, all these links are dead now, I’ll be putting up a PDF version of the obituary as soon as I have a minute. Until then, I’ve also posted the photobituary (or as I am not calling them) on YouTube for your viewing pleasure.
