wardad: great list except those aren't jokes. A lot of stuff in that list is plain true. To illustrate one point: driving. An American colleague of mine came to Belgium and wanted to visit Bruges. No probs, we made arrangements to leave after work so we would have time enough to visit Bruges. When she got in the car and we were cruising at 140-150 ks (86-93mph) an hour towards Bruges, she was literally shocked by that speed while other cars where still overtaking us
But this is changing as the policy is controlling far more often, the fines have gone up and they use a lot of unmanned camera's.
It's a good thing our ancestors started making beer. Bless them
I wonder if one of the products you will be able to trade in the upcoming Starfury is going to be beer. I think there should be galactic beer.
