Oh, a road trip across the U.S. is probably fine, as long as we all "behave" and don't call attention to ourselves. There's a lot of great stuff to see in this country, but there's no need to put ourselves in any danger, and, yes, danger is still out there no matter how great Ant portrays some of these states.

A few years ago on a ski trip to Oregon, a group of us stopped at a roadside tavern for lunch. It was clear that we weren't locals, but when one guy ordered an Absolut Cosmopolitan, we really stood out.
