I'm visiting a friend. Why should I get a travel guide for that? Oh
- maybe so I can see what the best rooms in my friends house are?
And just in case you're wondering why my friend didn't tell me... why
would you assume they know? I don't know if a UK citizen of a french
citizen would need a Visa to get into the United States so why is it
any great surprise when they don't know whether a US citizen could get
into their country?
Oh - that's right. US citizens are just idiots, aren't they? Every
non-American, save for apparently my friend, knows who needs a Visa
and who doesn't to enter their country.
*sigh*
