Don't forget to factor in the airfare in your travel budget. Unless you're lucky to have a direct connection from where you live, you're looking at $6...

Read the complete sentence. Are you capable of that? Are minorities doing any air travel or are they barred from that. What I was trying to ask i...

Far fewer bigwigs make their way to STX than they do to STT. Yep. Crucians rarely get such opportunities

The "escaping drama in the states" types tend to do very, very well here. What are the other types? Why wanderer is the best, exhibit A.

Anyone who suggests that we as "local employees" all behave the same is a racist. If you really want to dig deep and uncover the ugly, you will find t...

STT has a vibrant bar scene (compared to STX and STJ) This is an outrageous, over the top generalization, which belittles the good people of STX...
