Well I live in a place in Spain where most people have to speak english and/or german and/or russian ... french to work. It is called capitalism. I don't try to be ironic, my apologies if so.
I once rode a train from London to Holyhead, to catch the ferry to Ireland. I spent the whole trip getting drunk on warm canned beer with two Scottish guys. Does that count?
If I want over-priced food & drinks and to ogle young, perky, big-breasted females...I go to the local strip clubs. Which is probably why the local Hooter's(and several others of the franchise owned by the same company) closed up shop - turns out they were $10 million in the debt.
Since were talking about NYC & PC, i guess this is not surprising http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2013/06/20/weiner-sorry-after-woman-uses-gay-slur/?hpt=hp_t3 A Democratic mayoral candidate apologizing for a remark he didn't even make.
That's no mayorial candidate, that's a weiner! And if you don't believe me, ask him for a text message.
