Description

Plymouth Rock meets Kid Rock in Why We Rule! an irreverent and unabashedly patriotic celebration of the United States of America. Inspiring, educational, and almost as much fun as getting high and watching Tv!

Why do we love our country so much? We're the home of the free, the land of the brave, and the wacky inventors of everything from toilet paper to People magazine. Join us as we take one giant leap for mankind with lists, stats, and facts on:

  • Rock 'n' Roll
    From Elvis to Britney. . .the lindy hop to hip-hop!

  • Hollywood
    The best flicks, from Jaws to Deep Throat!

  • Inventions
    The internet, martinis, and the slinky!

  • Medicine
    Pioneers in kidney transplants and breast implants!

  • Eats
    Home of hot apple pie, and hot pizza delivered in thirty minutes or less!

  • Sexy Chicks
    From Angelina Jolie to the Statue of Liberty!

  • #1
    In Nobel prizes, Olympic gold medals, and worldwide production of salt!

If that's not enough, how about celebrating our entrepreneurial spirit, landing on the moon, hot-and-cold running showers, big national monuments, and oh, yeah. . .a little thing called freedom.
