American Influence


English is a vogue instrument here. English is used to sell everything. The one strange thing about it is that it doesn't need to make sense. Most folks don't understand the English that is used to attract folks to stores / products. So, sometimes the English makes sense, but most often, it doesn't. It's merely an attraction used to lure people inside.

Here's a sign I saw today outside a sporting goods store. Not sure anyone entering could understand what the sign meant. However, I'm sure the sign draws in lots of people.
