Our national dish is a deep fried minced meat sausage which can literally be pulled out of a wall. I think Haggis is better

i take the rapid transit in a large american city from time to time, i put my rolex in a hard case meant for sunglasses (and wrapped in a cloth). i put the case in my front pocket. here goes, people telling me to wear it and not worry...
I've been on a bay area transit and i can't blame you! it can be sketchy.

That is pretty cool!
I've spotted quite a few Rolexes the past hour here at Schiphol, the Rolex boutique was rather poorly stocked though.
