My only trips outside the US up until three years ago were courtesy of Uncle Sam and I was much too busy to pay attention to culture except for the occasional R&R - even then, it was more a case of "Oh, that's nice". My time in Australia was courtesy of Uncle Sam when we were training with some SAS types. I will be the first to admit that I am the prototypical Ugly American in the sense that I could care less about other cultures - I'm just not interested. I don't want to "understand" them, I don't want to "know" about them, I basically don't want to have anything to do with them. Cultural Anthropology has never been one of my interests. Other than Ireland and a fishing trip to Cuba, I've never been outside the confines of the US since I left the service and I have no desire to do so. Hell, I don't even like to leave the confines of New England and specifically, CT, RI, MA and occasionally, NY and I get nervous when I'm outside the CT state lines. :) You mentioned that you were up in my area at one time. What mayhem were you part of then? |
