It's Memorial Day Weekend so I thought i would just give everyone a chance to throw out things they associate with America, or what kind of things are American to them. And if you see any of our troops make sure to thank them!

Memorial Day is a national; Holiday which celebrates the men and women who died for our freedom in America....I take it you're not an American citizen?

Memorial Day is always the last Monday of May. It is in memory of people who have served and died in the U.S. Military.

Honestly, I think of America when I drive by a McDonald's. Oh, and when I see Obama, who is everywhere these days. Obviously there are other things but these two come to mind. O.o

Mine are.. McDonalds, obesity, war, rescession, guns.

Then again, I'm European and honestly... I don't hear too many good things about America right now... but it's probably the same of Americans about Europeans so it balances out :p
