I've changed my mind. I want to go to "cavebearatoria" a new country contolled by *me*, which is free of taxes, allows passage to all US territory by *me*, and allows entrants bearing hot&sour soup, roast pork with vegetables, whole fried chickens, tossed salads, and Spring Rolls, plus Wild Goose India POale Ale (chilled). The boandaries of "cavebearatoria" expand by one foot in all directions each day. Entry tickets will be on sale as soon as the expanding boundaries include the neighbors houses.

As it happens I have prepared myself for just such an eventuality.

I'd go to the Philippines where we have already built a 5 bedroom getaway and are looking to get oceanfront where we will build a little 2 bedroom hideout w/ huge ocean front tiled deck and swimming pool, w/ dock. Est. cost $30,000 max.

From the dock we'll have our escape by sailboat all figured out.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

top ten (I live in the US BTW)
1. Canada
2. UK
3. Australia
4. New Zealand
5... actually, since I don't speak any other languags fluently, there isn't anywhere else I'd like to go, if the first four fail, then I'd probably just try and fit in where I end up. Although I'd try to sneak back into the US. If a bunch of Mexicans can do it, I bet I can

Jon, Christmas list?

Kramerman...saying the Philippines is dangerous because of the moslem rebels is like saying the US is dangerous because of the south central LA gangs. Just don't go to south central LA or southern Mindanao and you'll be ok. Most of the Phils are roman catholic and very friendly.

Yeah, decent set up...we're on a five year plan to retirement. I want to own the Corona commercial.

My Uncle went to France, He didn't like it at all.
Said it was full of Nazis..

Of course that was the summer of 44.

Put an end to popups!

What's with the aversion to Africa? And the apparently related insane prejudices. (80% a war zone? Good lord. More like 20%.) Is there any justification for placing Ethiopia, which is a really nice place, beautiful and with a rich history (and great for westerners), third on your list of "least wanted" countries? What possible reason could you have for this?

I can't believe the Saudi Arabia choices myself. Notice how they are on my least wanted list. I have been there. Like I said if you go anywhere in the middle east go to Bahrain. Much more liberal than Saudi Arabia. I wasn't impressed with United Arab Emrites either, but I didn't get to see that much of it.

And I'm glad another person chose Mexico. It can be a fine country- well if you have money that is .

I love the tropics, even those places which have a lot of poverity. I find that the poverish are usually a lot nicer too you, even if you aren't throwing money around. They just concern themselfs more with the non-material things in life...
