The most necessary


I assumed a pool was only for the very wealthy and got confused at all the pictures of swimming pools from America, so my friend who practically grew up in the US and still visits the states every year joked that getting a pool is very high on Americans' list of things they need in their life.

"They make sure they have a house, a bed, food, and then a pool"

As a proud American, I have made sure my swimming pool is the best on my street. It is surrounded by a net screen to keep bugs out. I keep it clean and maintained with just the correct amount of chemicals. I pressure wash the dirt off the ground next to it on a monthly basis. If ANYBODY challenges my swimming pool there will be hell to pay.

Am I the only one who appreciates America's stuttering and ad-libs? It's really cool.

Yeah, not just for the very wealthy and pretty common in the warmer parts of the country. I live in a moderately priced condo community in a southern state, and there are pools for all the neighborhoods, including an indoor pool in the main clubhouse. Also many of my neighbors are originally from up north so no southern accents there. A lot of Long Island ones though, and Brooklyn. (Yes, there are different accents even from different parts of NYC alone.)
