The cup here to the right is a miracle of modern-day manufacturing ingenuity. The girls each got one of these at a neighbor girl’s birthday party, which was miraculous in itself for several reasons: They just invited neighbors, had pizza, had a pillow fight, had cake then came home. The two bigs, as I call the two older girls, had a great time. I mean, they didn’t even notice the lack of bouncy house or petting zoo.
Then they came home with these cups. I looked on the bottom to see where they were made. You get one guess.
China?
Nnnnnnnnntt!
Wrong, get it? A plastic cup with Disney Princesses embossed on it, and it wasn’t made in China.
So where was it made?
Asheboro, North Carolina. The North Carolina that is in the United States. Seriously.
Some company named Technimark performed this amazing feat: They made a plastic cup, and printed a bunch of Disney Princesses on it.
In America.
Just think what could someday be possible, right here in the new world. We could grow our own food, make our own clothes, put together our own cars.
Anything seems possible, if we can make a plastic cup.
