In refrence to feeling bad about working someplace so uncool as working class London. Two words: "North Dakota". The most popular branch of military service there is the navy. Primarily because the place is about a thousand kilometers from an ocean in any dirrection. Anyone use the phrase "book learning" (as to differentiate from "real" learning) at you lately? feeling things are drab? try this little gem: Moldova http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/from_our_own_correspondent/3878503.stm Buck up there. The very worst parts of london are so much better than the better parts of a lot of other places. Also these girl things? They're rumored to be more or less the same no matter which part of london you are in. (requisite number of arms and legs, prefrence for eye contact in conversation, etc..) Outside of London just remember: No matter how cute they are, never NEVER deep kiss a girl that dips tobacco. Never.
