LOL at Edmond! You only pay one fee yearly for TV licensing, covers however many sets you have. The money goes to the BBC! All the other channels have advertising which pays for their programmes.

I wouldn't mind visiting the UK, doing some serious photo work while there. Dunno if I'd want to live there though...I'm trying to move away from snow, lol!

Richard lll's castle is just up the road too as well as the castle that Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned in.

Maybe they have a crypt for rent...

I'd go to Italy. its comfortable there I'm also not deterred by learning a foreign language, I like doing that. Denmark as well would be on my list.
I could care less about this "Proud to be an American" stuff its overdone
were all one global community. I'm a bachelor, so Denmark and Italy look pretty good to me, for the reason of ragazzas i.e females! However, would be a problem that I can't take my dog with me.
Ciao..

I am "proud to be an American". All the "leavers" are faithless quitters who I wouldnt trust to stand by me in a crunch. When the going gets tough the quitters abandon ship I guess.

“Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.” - Jesus Christ in his sermon on the mount.

Look, if that is how you feel, fine, but at least take heed.

I think a search here, and elsewhere will show the extent of my love of the US, and the desire I have for its improvement. But, since the options are a-fruitlessly fight against an entrenched enemy, death or capture, then illegal torture or b-peacefully relocate, I think I'll take b.

option b allows the system to correct itself with the option to return later.

Plus would let me in my case, get lots of good photoss I otherwise wouldn't. :)

Does this have anything to do with the bridge?

That was just bad timing. My sense of adventure is sometimes prescient however.

Right now, I'm sitting in an internet cafe in downtown Auckland. My wife is taking a little nap to combat jet lag. Thus far, I've noticed that this city has a HUGE asian influence. There's a sushi bar on every corner and a wealth of martial arts schools and clubs. WAY WAY WAY more then I've ever seen packed into a small area before.

And that HAS to be a good thing.
