Saddam Captured
Saddam Captured though some argue it does not matter.
Recently I have seen Noam Chomsky and have talked with a mother of a soldier who was there when they killed Saddam's sons.
While I may be glad for what Iraqis have been punished by Saddam, hearing this news scares me as it makes me believe that people may now be more interested in electing Bush again.
If Bush is reelected I am likely moving to another country, as I will have lost faith in this one. I think Canada would be too cold and most the countries south of here in this hemisphere are exceptionally corrupt (from what little I have read).
I also do not think I would be interested in Africa as it is not technologically advanced as I would like. Japan seems like it is too hustle and bustle for my taste. There is also a ton of crazy stuff in Asia and the middle east if memory serves.
That leaves Australia and Europe as vital options... and perhaps some small tropical islands if they have broadband internet access.
Suggestions?
Posted at December 15, 2003 2:13 AMIf you ever seriously consider leaving the US, don't rule out Canada as too cold. It really depends where you're from. Living in Vancouver, BC is really like Seattle, but with more green-space and less concrete. Not that somewhere tropical wouldn't be nice. Besides, when the country is so close, and your dollar is stronger, you ought to at least visit.
I guess that would be the one spot in Canada that is good and warm for me. I remember Montreal was rather cold though (although a lot of fun)...brrr
