chris I used bunac to do an internship for 18 months on the J-1 visa. Would be worth doing if you're desperate to get away, might even meet someone lol. I met my wife that way actually.

good luck

Hello stranger!

Did you know that down in Mississippi, girls/young women will actually curtsey, and young men bow?

No, I would not have believed it myself, but it actually happened.

So surely all must be well with US society - at least down south

Helloooo!

I didn't know that, but over this side the drivers are so courteous, they also must have the olde worlde charm. Also every merchant is so helpful, and speaketh the Queen's English making all transactions a pure pleasure.

Gee golly I'm so glad to hear it!

I'll be coming your way sometime in March and I was getting worried because I'd heard so many horror stories about driving in LA.

(Fancy a visit to the Norton Simon afternoon of 7 March?)
