The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Put that tongue back where it belongs! iirc, at one time, Japanese baseball teams were limited to two gaijin. There are plenty of USians who are allowed to pass through High School and college, without learning anything, because they played a sport. If someone thinks of it, I'm sure there would be a national campaign to get the foreigners out of sports,so there are more "jobs" for USians with four years of college, but illiterate.

Back when Tom Selleck was really bankable, he played the gaijin thing for laffs.
