If you had to live in a different country, where would you go and why would you live there?
“Germany, because there’s beer gardens.”
“España, so I could play Rafael Nadal in tennis.”
“I would say Switzerland because it looks pretty with the mountains and the lakes and the scenery and the chocolate.”
“Switzerland, because they are not as quick to make laws that restrict things and restrict your rights.”
“Australia, because they have the coral reef.”

I would go to Germany because I cannot trace my family past my parents and they came from there.

Always wanted to live on a tropical island, but I'm still here in Margaritaville. It's my own damn fault.

North Korea! But just long enough to claim a piece of their flag for the $1,000,000 bounty. http://readymix160.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/p1020107.jpg

Seriously, Jamaica, for both the beach and the mountains and the Blue Mountains and the White River and the music and the Red Stripe beer and the dancing.

Yes, I know, I heard that when I went there, my daughter heard that when she went there, my granddaughter heard that when she went there. Still, its not all bad being poor there. I backpacked around the country, slept on the beach and hitched a ride up into the mountains. I remember good food, good talk and better ganja. The Rastas were basically good people though they didn't let women join the club back then. Now they do. Wonderful people.

And the coffee. Don't forget the excellent coffee they grow in those Blue Mountains.

Smokin' all the ganja is the only way they can stomach the stuff. You gotta be blasted to drink that swill.

Tahiti is pretty cool. I definitely agree. Watching the Taitian girls dancing you realize that those English guys on the Bounty didn't have a chance.....

I think that Mr. Norwood is a bit clueless. Switzerland is one of the more strictly regulated societies around where even when you wash your clothes and take a shower is regulated.
