Granted - no Hurricanes, but, they get their fair amount of Tornadoes every year.
Good luck getting a job....unemployment in Douglas County (just south of Pierre) is 80%.
Why does everyone back in Blighty think that life is just one enormous bowl of cherries, over here?????

Plus the fact they come on holiday over here with their British wages which buys you a lot here, but they don't consider all the other expenses, the ones you don't have to think about or in cure on a holiday.

Sometimes I read a thread so funny my coworkers think I'm having a fit (ICIHAC has the same effect..)! This is one such thread... I wonder if there is a USAExpats forum somewhere on the interweb with witty links about why you shouldn't move to Croydon, even though it's nice to holiday there, complete with pictures of chavs in your back garden dressed in faux-alligator clothing...
