That's rich coming from the Germans. It's not like they ever started a war is it...

... found some bloody looking red writing on the windshield few days ago saying 'ami bitch'... but it was just ketchup.
(hey, I thought I am german... :( )
got arguments those days a few times 'cause I am working for the US.
I am glad it is just a few extreme people and not everybody is like that.

Just remember that there are stupid people everywhere. I get evil looks everywhere I drive in my Expedition.

Everyone here needs to be very careful around because of radical people like Squirellina experienced. Take pride in who you are and what you drive, but try to be safe above all else, regardless of your nationality. Your car can be replaced (although that would really suck), you cannot.

Then again, I hear some Americans are boycotting French goods. Now what do they make again?

Never understood why anybody would pay for something you can get out of the tap either. Luckily, I don't like water.

In the US you can also drink straight from the tap. Apparently thats not the case here in Belgium. Noone I have met drinks from it. I have heard all sorts of stories about it. So, I get bottled water while I am here...but will drink tap in the US.

I've got a new line in bottled Caerphilly Mountain Air - only 3 dollars a bottle and up to 30 sniffs. You can't turn your nose up at that. I can also do heather scented mountain air for a dollar premium or add a splash of morning dew for the same price (as I have to get up early in the morning to harvest it).

A new line I have is "black air" which is, as the name suggests, black in color as I collect it at night. Adding a touch of exhaust makes it Knightride-air. OK, I'll quit now as I've just had a few bottles returned - must have been a bad air day.
