Did you see the golden streets and every man holding two top models?

Did they try and sell you service plans?
I don't think that has changed since I worked there.

Nope, but we didn't buy anything that required them.
Mini review:-
[Plus points of the USA]
Great service
Cheap food and lots of it
Excellent range of entertainment and shopping etc
Relaxed attitude (in Florida at least)
Much better weather ("" )
Everywhere is spaced out with wide open areas, not all huddled up and
cobbled together like UK(I used to find it charming but now I can't stand
it)
Great building design
There is a feeling of prosperity and hope
People in general are very friendly
They seem to love my accent
[Negative points]
TV is terrible
Almost no International news
Insanely big cars (we were driving around in a new Mini)
If you live there you get screwed over for insurance fees (people sue like
mad)
Accents can grate (especially from New York)
People have no concept of traffic flow in car parks
The national pride thing (it's not as bad and you are led to believe but
everywhere sells "Support our troops" badges, wristbands, car stickers etc
etc.)
Tipping (though everything service-based is cheaper)

That's good, because Best Buy doesn't carry the good stuff,
only the mass-market teir. For the full experience of hell, you
should have bought something and tried to return or exchange
it

Tipping needs to be phased out here. It's no longer a show of appreciation,
but rather a way for employers to force their customer base to make up for
the fact that they're not paying enough of a wage to the employees.

Do you think they will do anything special in 2005 since
it is the 400 year anniversary of the foiling of the Gunpowder
plot? Sadly I have only ever gotten to celebrate Guy Fawkes
day once at the British Embassy in Tokyo. But, it was
awesome.

LOL I hope not too, but there is always graduate school if
it does I guess.
