ZJJ Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 Some curious questions they've asked: Is that the same moon we see in Vermont? How come all the war battles were fought in national parks? If it rains will the fireworks be held inside? Is the horse manure on the square real? When do the caribou turn into moose? - Travel Industry Association of America Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xG5kdo Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 What do you mean Hmmm..'City Folks'???? When my friend first took me and my buddy from NCY to her farm...I was surprised to see that the Cows were wearing blankets...and he called horses Skinny cows (because they had their heads down/grazing, and he couldn't see all of it from the car), and I got thrown off a horse. But, when she came and visited us in NYC, the subway scared her...hahahahahaha. Damn country girl. Out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killa_N_Manila Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 I've been bucked off a horse before...Not very fun, but I'm happy to say I got back on that devil. Different strokes for different folks I say... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tollen Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 I can only defend my input by saying that I was neither fostered in the city, nor on a farm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyovan4 Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 I have much experience dealing w/ stupid tourists.. working at an amusement park in the summer. Im too tired to get into it, but I'll try to think of some examples to put up later.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRW_Hotdog Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 ok this isn't what a tourist said, it is something an ex-girlfriend of mine said years ago that is still stuck in my head to this day. she was watching the show the Operation on TLC which i had on cable. i had just bought a new tv and was giving the old one to one of my friends so they were there to help do the switch. just as we unhooked the one tv and i was about to hook up the new one, my girlfriend piped up "will this tv get the operation too?" she was serious and all my friends could do was look at me as if to say... did she just ask that? and they left it alone but still they even bring it up from time to time.

Tollen Posted January 23, 2003 Share Posted January 23, 2003 Sweden. The country with the largest airforce compared to the population and the country where only 31% of the youth is given the chance of doing military service Yes, I´m working at the computers, but it´s only to get by untill I´m attending the Carrier Tech Officers program (I´m hopping to be appointed as a Technical Officer, specialized in Communication), but nothing is sure yet.
