It's cool. They agree to only share your CC info with a maximum of three Nigerian heirs/litigants.

3? That's not bad at all. The private tour company that we were going to go with was going to share it with at least a dozen.

They probably didn't roll with Dongbo, either...


Only rank amateurs miss out on teh Dongbo when in Seoul...

Thanks to my $0.10 Google Voice credit, the call was free. ^

Now to figure out what dress code we actually need to follow. I've heard different things from so many people - even the reports from the USO have been conflicting. It sounds like a collared shirt, jeans and sneakers (although, one of the USO people said no sneakers) is acceptable? Do women need collared shirts as well? :confused:

Night, Box. Tomorrow starts a new day and a light, fluffy softcover: Glenn Beck's Common Sense.

sdm1130 - Look for men and women standards and you will be ok. I will not recount my experience in India (regarding dress code) when I failed to follow up, being complacent after Thailand. It wasn't good. :p

Decided on my Google Voice #. I found a local number and the last 4 digits are my first name (my first name is only 3 letters) and the first inital of my last name. ^ That could be a keeper wherever I move to.

Thanks. I believe this is more of a DMZ/military thing than just a cultural thing but I suppose the same advice could apply.

Nice! ^ In case you were wondering, your $0.10 credit is good for a 3.3 minute call to South Korea.

Boutique Target ^

Agreed, very rarely will i find myself in a Wally world. The only time I will really set foot in there is in the 24hr one when nothing else is open.

That is definitely a very interesting movie. Twisted yet could lead to some serious fun. :eek:

They put your package on the wrong truck. Might take two more days to get to you.

Koreans are very fashionable so it must just be a DMZ thing. Considering they sell tons of Nike tennis shoes on the streets of Itewan, I surprised that you can not wear them.

Asking men to wear collar shirts is because they don't want t-shirts with slogans. I don't think your wife will need a collar shirt, just a plain shirt will work.
