LMAO, Tucker that's what I was going to ask; I like the video, and agree with what is being said.

I just realized where they got there stats, they used the CIA world fact book, and read a few wrong. I'm was tracking some of those as different stats from different sources, NationMaster etc.

I.E. we are 178th in infant mortality, but it's ranked worst to best. So we would be #48 out of 222.

The CIA also uses list extremely small countries, so when you use a per captia basis for comparison you get extreme results; i.e. Andorra, Luxembourg, Aruba, etc.
 
Just to remind a few folks, but this year's 'season' starts next week. Looking forward to it here. I know that there are some detractors here, but everyone has the ability to choose their own likes and dislikes.

Some people prefer to watch 'sex and the city' or whatever, but we here would rather watch shows such as this. Makes for better time spent, in our perspective. It's just a show, folks.
