Banks don't offer the best exchange rates in either country. The currency exchange places do. But that is for cash. Cash can be slightly inconvenient or very convenient depending on how you look at it. You pay a bigger slice for travellers cheques ( which nobody probably uses now) or those multi...

Street fighting is a waste of time. Waiting for someone to make the first move is asking to get injured. Not waiting invites legal problems. The law of self defence makes little sense, except maybe in Florida, and you saw how that worked out. Natural thugs always prefer to strike first, and...

Most nut cases give plenty of forewarning that they are disturbed, but nobody does anything about them. The media likes to run a story that a mild mannered "normal" person goes out and suddenly does bad things. This is fiction. It would be unacceptable to admit that serious psycho cases...

Bible Belt your legal system seems more archaic than a lot of others. Almost like it was frozen in time at the point of the American revolution. Grand juries for example. Also, your legislatures seem to spend their entire time inventing ways to circumvent the rights which were built into your...

Zarky, what rent did you pay on that office before the couch? Did it have suitable facilities, and if not, how did you deal with that?

An argument, which in brief, states that slaves are selected mainly on their degree of pigmentation seems wrong to me. It requires one to accept that American Indians were rejected, even though no shipping expenses were required, because they weren't dark enough. It requires that exceptionally...

There is a practical reason for using imported goods instead of locally produced goods. The local goods can run away, and they are already home. But the imported goods have a long swim. Plus their relatives are a long way away, so there is no risk of retribution by them. Also, it is better for...

Dr Farrell uses that disaster to explain how your death rate is directly linked to your social status and whether you are male. The death rates were highest on the Titanic for low class males. He also notes that there was no record of any act of bravery by any woman such as rescuing a man from...

It's looked down upon for the same reason that incest is looked down upon.

He lives there because one of his elves bought Superman's old place, at a foreclosure auction, for a very reasonable price.

Florida, isn't that the place where 2 British tourists were shot by the 17 year old black kid for no good reason other than to perhaps rob them? How is Zimmerman supposed to know that he wasn't dealing with the same type of juvenile? Florida is a place where, in gated communities, even white...

Yes, but I was pre-programmed, to convince you not to be an AFC, and to argue so effectively, that you would have no choice other than to stop being one.

Its hard to know. Sometimes you see a filthy guy getting his change sorted into notes at the bank, and you think, this guy is raking it in. You can't tell from the contents of his hat on the ground. I think they sprinkle some small amounts of change in there so it looks pathetic, when in fact...

You could have posted it in Anything Else. When someone asks you where you are from I would suggest you just say the Deep South or the Big Island. This will confuse them as the big island is their name for the actual island of Hawaii which is south of Oahu. If you have just disgraced yourself...

You're in the wrong section GP. But anyway, let me be the first to tell you. Hawaii is a US State consisting of many islands but the international airport is in Honolulu on Oahu. So unless you have made other plans you are probably staying there. I don't have sufficient local knowledge to...

I would suggest a disinformation campaign so that the Nazis think that you are going to invade somewhere other than Normandy. Then, of course, you later head for Normandy and take them by surprise.

There does appear to be blood now, but Moodys supposedly say prices could be depressed for decades there. What about Miami as opposed to more rural swampland?

Could anyone with some experience buying Florida foreclosures indicate whether this is likely to be a viable investment in the medium to longterm, and major pitfalls.

If the text she was sending was inappropriate then your days were numbered. Likewise you had lost interest otherwise you wouldn't be looking at a dating site, unless just curious. Only you know. Your looks if you have average genetics can't deteriorate by age 28.

I think you should take that 223 and that 9mm with the fragmenting projectiles and go hunting grizzly bears in Alaska. Make sure you use the silencer, so that you can hear the last scream of the young girl you are currently instructing.
