I saw someone post this picture in r.s.s. Apparently, the guy was upset that he wasn't let in a pool in Czechoslovakia where he was visiting (he's from the U.S.) Have you seen these kind of signs elsewhere? Not that I'm against them, I'm perfectly fine wearing the "approved" attire.

Geek, there are also sports in which we get our butts kicked. I'm pretty sure we didn't completely sweep the medals in Athens, and we never fair as well in winter Olympics.
Canada has far better hockey. We certainly don't kick the rest of the world's butts there. I'm pretty sure our men's teams didn't win the gold in baseball (hello America's favorite past time), basketball, or soccer. Or does that not count. We didn't even win every swim medal. I'm pretty sure our butts were handed to us on a platter in a few events and in quite a few sports.
I'm still hoping you are playing devil's advocate and being tounge in cheek. I truly hope you aren't that arrogant. Also there's a lot of good stuff that came from other countries, pasta, The Beatles, swimming pools (not a US invention), Speedo (curse it as you must), The Stones, The Who, BMWs, VWs, pizza, etc.
