From an email I received today.

Finally, a definition of globalization that I can understand and to which I now can relate:

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,
riding in 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 posted by
an American, using
Bill Gates's technology,
and you're reading
this on your computer,
that uses 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!
