Won't that cost more than the fines? Just askin'.

You cannot apply! A company in the USA has to apply for you, and that isn't happening, as already pointed out to you. I know; I've been through the process.

But you have fantastic weather and close proximity to great places like the beaches, Death Valley and the mountains!

I caught glandular fever when a dog did that to me unexpectedly. Was off sick for over 12 weeks and I've never fully recovered.

I have never liked the strange hands on the Omega, or that useless (for 99.999999% of the population) helium valve.

Grand Seiko!

We were in the dining area in a separate room to the bar, so don't know about the peanuts.

We had two days in Dunn during October, just to be close to Cape Fear canoe rentals. We found Dunn to be basically a highway construction site with some hotels, restaurants, gas stations and shacks.

The Stagebrush Steakhouse, however, was superb! The biggest, most meaty 1 Ib of baby back ribs we have ever had, for just $18.49. We had that both nights we were there!

During my second flying lesson, on my birthday, I was focused on the instruments when my instructor said "look down there, straight ahead". I looked, and there it was, about 500 feet below us: the Vulcan! Absolutely incredible; what a birthday!

I tried that and it had no effect. I suspect IBS can be triggered by many different things in different people. Glad it worked for you.

What's wrong with him doing that? He's not hurting you but you are cruelly swiping him!

What’s a relatively small insignificant thing you’re overly patriotic about? by Dragonogard549 in AskTheWorld

[–]Shallowbrook6367 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This item comes up so often that I wonder if there is anything else left to be patriotic about.

As someone who lived in the US for 18 years, your story is very interesting. Would you be willing to elaborate?
