Monk,

It's pretty easy for us western europeans to go as visitor in the US.(being a white caucasian with no criminal/political record) It is waaay less easy for eastern europeans to do so. I think that's what maslo meant there.

There's nice countryside to be seen all aroud the world, except for west flanders... that it ;)

Beetle, it's not just a Frog... it's a genuine "Grenouille Vollante!!!"

To add a bit of explaination to what Saw said it's  "Garulfo" the frog who didn't want to become a prince :D
and the Grenouilles volante was a squad Saw and I founded a while ago and now defunct.


It's extracted from a comic :

Well yes and no. If you're looking for history and culture, you might have to look further than the US. For example, how many of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World can be found in the US? Erm...., erm.... er.... well none, actually.

Of course, if you equate "having it all" with the availability of outlets like Wal-Mart and Burger King, there's nothing more to be said.

:lol:rolleyes:

The seven wonders of the world were judged even before America Existed.  They don't count when talking about america.


But anyway, Guns, beer, women.  In no particular order.
