THE DEFINITION OF GLOBALIZATION

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,

driving a German car
with a Dutch engine,
driven by a Belgian
who was drunk
on Scottish whisky,
(check the bottle before youchange the spelling),
followed closely by
Italian Paparazzi,
on Japanese motorcycles;
treated by an American doctor,

using Brazilian medicines.

This is sent to you by
an American,

(well, actually I am German)

using Bill Gates's technology,
and you're probably 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!!
