If you could live anywhere; where'd it be?
No doubt, the women in Germany are hot- REAL HOT and they love black men- so that's a double bonus for me. 
I had my fun, believe me when I tell you.
That said; I'd love to live in Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Nuremburg, or somewhere like that. Of the countries I've been to, Germany is the only one I could truly phathom living in. (Autobahn)
Once you've driven A3, A5 & A7- when you come back to the US and have to drive 70 on I-10, it gets irritating!!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Kobiashi: I put all that filler in there because you could want to live anywhere, but if you can't afford to live there because there is no jobs (yet you still have bills & responsibilities); what sense would that make? I set it up like that so everything you have today (job/salary, etc.) could remain the same or better, but you could call where you wanted to live, home.)
I LOVE the San Francisco Bay area, but, with the AVERAGE house in the Bay Area costing $670,000; I can't afford to move there. That's right, the AVERAGE home is $670,000. That's a monthly mortgage of roughly $6,700 a month. You'd have to be bringin home $300,000 to live comfortably in San Francisco; unless you moved there 10-20-30 years ago when things were cheap, and you just happen to have the house someone left you. Otherwise, many of us couldn't just fold the tent and move somewhere like that, without all expenses being paid.

I'd be scared to death to visit another country right now. I'm "too" American. I'd get spotted in a heart beat and get strung up in some warehouse like a POW.

Honestly, I think you have more chance of getting shot in Texas than many other places around the world.
Downtown Luanda during the Angolan civil war felt safer than some parts of Houston

For example:
"If you could live anywhere, where would it be . . . and how many women would you have in your harem . . . and would they all be blonde . . .and would you have a chef . . . and what kind of food would you eat (because in this fantasy you can eat as much as you want and never get fat) . . . and would all the women in your harem feed you or would you want to feed yourself?
See . . . much better than WORK!

(this is not directed at you jamz, it's just that your post reminded me of this)
I went to Paris for Christmas. I flew out of LAX here. When I was checking in at the terminal the guy in front of me in line had an American Passport in his hand. He also had a canvas duffle bag carry-on. Sewn onto the duffle (and you could see it was done hastely because it was a real sloppy job) was a Canadian Flag.
The damn wuss didn't want anyone to know he was American.
My luggage and my carry-on have black leather ID tags that have an American Flag on one side of the tag.
Wave it proudly!
Pretending you're Canadian when traveling abroad . . . pathetic.
If one does not want to travel that's fine, but if one does travel, don't hide behind someone else's flag.
(Besides . . . come on . . .it was France for Christ's sake!)

I'd stand out like a sore thumb in any other country....with or without a flag.
Why would someone hide behind another flag? I love my country and am proud to wave my flag I have no problem with the USA flag either. We have the 2 best countries in the world! North America is a last frontier of freedom! Lets hope it stays that way!
Support our troops and it will stay that way!

Fairbanks, Alaska, where I'm at now, that's why I built my house here in the hills. All the hunting, fishing, and wilderness I could ever ask for. Not to crowded, either.

To me it would seem really weird to live in Alaska or Hawaii, because you would be so far away from the lower 48 states. If, I leave Arkansas state lines, I am still in the U.S. Know what I mean? I would love to see those places those!!

Other than that, we have most of the modern conviences up here that you have down there, it's just that they're always a little more expensive.

If your company moved you to anywhere you wanted to live, all moving expenses paid, sold/paid for your old house (And the closing costs), and gave you a $30,000 miscellaneous expense disbursement to payoff any nagging debt you have; gave you a dedicated T1 line so you could work from home, and allowed you to maintain your current salary, plus 5% annual adjustments; where would you move to?

I can't tell you how many times Alaska and Hawaii are considered international, like we're some foriegn country, so alot of companies wont ship up here.
