"One Is Silver and the Other Gold" or "One is US Gold Standard and the Other Is British Pounds Sterling"

I was back in the US for the last three weeks, and in spite of an increasing number of strange medical conditions, it was a great to spend some time back in God's country. Being back home made me realize what is great about the US and what is great about the UK. Here's the list.

Great Britain:
Kentish Ale
Mika
Trains
Football
The word "Royal" actually means something
Accents
Slang words
Skins (The TV show)


Fabulous USA:
A small coffee is 16oz.
The Fahrenheit scale
Movies that are only $6
Ice
Football
Stoplights
Weeds (the TV show)
REAL Burgers (http://www.lionstap.com)
$1 bills


There are probably more for each, but that is all that comes off the top of my head. Happy New Year and enjoy this Twisted Sister as my Boxing Day present to you:
