Ya know, the more people I "meet" people from around the world on these boards, the less I like being American, not that this a particularly good time to be an American anyway (I think you know what I mean). Right now, I would love to move away to another country and enjoy a slightly different mindset and lifestyle. My wife says that no one else will take me. I told her I'm going to pack up our shit and go to Canada, which is only three ours north. For some reason, she thinks all of Canada is frozen wasteland. Yeah, she's pretty fucked sometimes.

You've got a great country, dude, just a bunch of wankers running it. After finishing college - few years back - I spent 4 months touring on Greyhound. I got in a couple of scrapes (mugged in memphis) but on the whole I met some fantastic people. In 28 years it was, on the whole, the best experience of my life : making new friends and seeing the HUGE variety of your country. I'd been to the US on loads of holidays, but that was the first time I departed the tourist track. I'm planning on taking the family over there next year. April has never been and I can't wait to introduce her to a few things.
