not to mention that most of those places fit several times into the us of a (size wise), you can fit two UK's in Texas...

When i was stationed there they would tell me Aberdeen (about 33 miles away) was a "Day Trip". (Also known as my current one way commute)

Still don't know how they manage to find jobs that are "close" to them so they don't have to drive distances... Every time i think i've got it made i get laid off or something and have to look again this time further away from where i moved to be close(ish) to work. lol

Amen! What kills me is everyone is like "OMFG! RIDE THE BUS!". Your milk, eggs, and bread are not delivered to the store on the public bus. When gas prices go up, everything goes up.

My friend just went to Germany to take delivery of his bimmer. He was shocked when getting gas.

Not even a full tank already cost him USD$120.
