Nuke the tattered shell that is Euro-Disney.
And please, please, please, send us the porn you guys get to watch on broadcast. Preferably, show it on the Disney channel.
Steal all Disney master tapes, carefully edit them so that wherever Mickey Mouse appears, Asterix appears instead.
Pirate broadcasts of GWB speeches and replace them with Tintin and Captain McCalister foiling evil schemes.
Leave the Warner Brothers cartoons alone, though. That is our contribution to the world.

Cartoons is one thing.
But how about that sad American sit-coms?
English humour is needed also; bring back Python and Hyacinth Buckčt

LOL, you guys are so right. But I don't think this is limited to europe only, there is a plenty the US can learn from Asia (both the Russian areas and the Chinese, Korean, Japanese areas). The most important things the US needs are better books, better TV, better culture in general, better SCHOOLS and a better president. American football has to go, and baseball has to go faster. Fast food should be banned.
And man, you got the history part so right! Here in Canada (that is, US junior) they literaly only teach history from 1990 to today. And even that only about Canadian involvment in the wars.

In my whole 6 yrs in the US, I dont think I ever met one american who didnt say they wanted to visit Australia - which is pretty amazing considering I dont think the US realises other countries exist half the time (heh)
So maybe Australia can help your cause and teach them about maps and how to find places - this way too we can alter the maps to hide Australia, there is such a thing as too many tourists :/

From the girl who don't even know where Mallorca is...:-)
No. Norwegians, the ancient travelling vikings, should teach the yanks 'bout geography!
BTW, did you hear about that survey that was made a couple of years ago, about american 17 years old students not being able to point to where the US was on a unmarked world map? I think only 18% or something managed to get it right!

I think indeed it's important for US-citizens to travel a bit more.
Could widen their horzion.
And it's truely sad how many American dunno anything about the rest of the world unless they had a war there.
I'd say there is link between both.

In the US, when someone drinks a beer every day, people say he has a problem with alcohol. What the hell are they talking about?
We, Polish guys, could teach them sissies to drink 10 beers without getting drunk! We'll leave the trick with 20 beers to the Russians.

hahaha!
I am an American and hell I agree with you for the most part.
America is an awesome country to have and be allied to in time of war (we are pretty tough SOBs when we get off our butt)
But in time of peace we have a lot of flaws and some of them I blame
Canada for... example Celine Dion
alot I blame Japan for... example Pokeman, Digimon
Mexico has some blame... example Ricky Martin
Some media atrocities I apologize for are... Britney Spears, Barney, Sesame Street, and perhaps the ultimate evils Richard Simmons and Christopher Lowell!!!
But deep down inside we are good people
But remember some of us Americans are just loyal heroes of might and magic fans so don't be too hard on us.

 Bwaaaaahaaahaahaaahahahaaahaahaaahaaahahaa
That's the sickest thing I've ever heard!
I've also heard that american beer is the weakest beer is the world!So its wrong to say "beer",I think "bad tasting brown water" would be the correct.I think,Woock,while u teach them drinking beer,you'd better start with teaching them making beer!

That's why they don't want to wipe you off the face of the earth but simply re-educate you. It's for your own good .
