    When I start brake checking highway patrol cruisers in back of me, I know it's time for a vacation.

    Now that looks like fun. I went to Thailand back in the early 80's (in my early 20's) and had a blast. I've often though of returning to the orient for a vacay.

    The only problem with a vacay in Thailand is you'll most likely need a vacay afterwards...

    Life only goes around one time! I'll probably spend next summer in China, while the children are out of school. I own a condo there and it's calling my name.

    I don't follow sports, but don't see much hoopla about the NFL here. Maybe it's there though.
    I've spent so much time in the Orient that Las Vegas seems mild and boring to me. Some of the other drivers that post on here and spend time in the Orient probably feel the same. Las Vegas is a great place though for people that haven't had the same opportunities to travel overseas. @Atlanta trucker - I love living in Las Vegas; it's a great little city with good weather year round and excellent schools for children. Can't think of any other place in the USA that I'd rather live.

    Isn't it a good feeling though to know it's there when you want or need it?
    So many American men live in Philippines that the USA has a permanent social security office in Manila; you may know about that.
