was perking, he shaved with his electric razor (MADE IN HONG KONG ).

He put on a dress shirt (MADE IN SRI LANKA ),

designer jeans (MADE IN SINGAPORE ) and tennis shoes

(MADE IN KOREA )

After cooking his breakfast in his new electric skillet (MADE IN INDIA )

he sat down with his calculator (MADE IN MEXICO )

to see how much he could spend today. After setting his watch

(MADE IN TAIWAN )to the radio (MADE IN INDIA )

he got in his car (MADE IN GERMANY )filled it with GAS

(from Saudi Arabia ) and continued his search for a good paying job.

At the end of yet another discouraging and fruitless day

poured himself a glass of wine (MADE IN FRANCE )and turned on his
