There are poor people everywhere you go NCC. Just don't book your flight from anything that runs an airbus jet and you will be fine. |

After each trip all I can think about is getting back.
When you leave your comfort zones, you begin to realize what is beautiful about life.

I look forward to going back to the Philippines.
Tennessee is my home, my comfort zone, but there is something about that place that is just beautiful.

The abundance of women does not hurt the attraction of wanting to come back either. But the people there will (and have) given me the shirts off their back.
I met one man there, Harvey, that was from Ilo 2x (Iloilo) and one night it started raining and he took off his hat and gave it to me so I would stay dry. I tried to say no thank you, but Tim told me to take it. He wanted me to have it.

Understood. My comfort zone is here in Indiana. Only because of my family. One day I will leave here. It will not be in the USA.

Very different than memories of being there in the mid-eighties when I was in the Navy...

Yeah slums and poverty sucks, but get away from the big city's and it seems less noticeable... Once you get out in the provinces, shacks are a way of life.. and no one is sad to be there.. |

A buddy of mine here was a pilot in the USA with about every rating one can probably get.
He fought long and hard to get a pilots license here, but never could do it due to red tape and normal bullshit run around that you get here.. He tells me that the rules and regulations, and test.. to get a license to fly a 747 here are a complete joke, but just being a foreigner and he is a much better and more experienced pilot.. he could not even be licensed to fly.. Dude should be giving instructors lessons and rated to do so in the USA, but no one wants to listen.. |
