It's pretty funny that you say Americans are all arrogant. Some are, yes. But, I have to say that I have met many more arrogant people here in Qatar than I ever have in the states.

If you think that Maury Povich and Jerry Springer are significantly influential to the US pattern of thought, you are sadly mistaken. Those people are considered a joke by the majority of the Americans I know. They are on TV for people to laugh at only. Gypsy, do you have a job? Or do you just post your opinions on Qatar Living all day long?

Never forget the things that really do matter...
