Post everyone, wish me luck.. & and some advice please.

I am leaving for the Bahamas tomorrow and I'll be gone for a much needed week of R&R... to replace my usual R&D.

I know there have been some warnings about Americans leaving the country in a time like this with "Terror" alerts and all but do you really think I could be at risk in someplace like the Bahamas.

Do you guys think that I could run into this backlash of anti-American sentiment that I have heard about lately or am I just being silly.

Let me know what you guys think because I have heard everything from "If someone tries to mess with you, kick there a$$" to " Oh no, dont even think about leaving American shores at a time like this."

good lucky travis

just pretend you are Canadian...oh wait, no one likes them either...how about Australian, hows your accent? Its cool to be Australian.

I wish I were Australian.

anyways, I don't think you should have a problem.

You could always make up a country. That would be fun!

Thumbs up

I say go for it! Don't know Bahamas never been there., are they French? Still from what I have seen/heard they are laid back island type culture right? If it were me I would go... if anyone give you a hard time tell them your Canadian. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> (rats Tim beat me to that one)

haha, I might just go with the Canadian thing if I get in a pinch. The Bohama-people dont have a problem with us, its just there are quite a few visitors from lots of other places that go there.
I dont feel I will have a problem but I just wanted to get a second opinion.

Thanks guys.... Aehhhh

I apologize for him on the behalf of the real Canadians...His view / policy is certainly not mine...If my US neighbour is going to "take care of business" then I would be there in a sec...Just the way I feel.

Travis...Enjoy your holiday!

lol, its only 80 miles away... so if something happens I could always just rent a jet ski and come home.

You got the country wrong. It's "It's Czechslovakia. I mean we zip in, we zip out. It's not like were going to Moscow."

Stripes.

As for going to the Bahamas. Please. That's not even a country. That's like calling Club Med a country. If things get to bad you can swim home.

No worries mate, go and have a Marg on me.

I'm HOME!!!... I had an awesome time. I would post some pictures up but I think most of them do not conform to the rennlist rules. ...

you know where my film was used. It's good to be back though.
