chinese UPs:?

Post by Islandpiper »

Are the Chinese making UPs yet? If not I wonder why........they make shoes, watches, cameras, violins, guitars and everything else by the billions.....wait till they catch on UPs and everyone will have a set in their car.... The honest truth however, is that their UPs would probably be a lot better than the Packistani pipes we all love so much.

I am not certain how to take this. But I am inclined to say that this is an interesting idea. Too bad it is just a tad stereotypical... and as such, methinks insulting... I dunno, but I can't help thinking about the old jokes/stereotypes regarding the Irish and Booze, the Polish and.... whatever... :really:
