-> Traveling abroad can be a wonderful experience, but it's even better when you're prepared. Here are some tips to help make your next trip a safe and enjoyable one:\\
\\
* Get foreign TV schedules in advance to decide exactly what shows you want to watch.\\
* Always bellow, "I'm an American, you filthy foreign barbarians!" to ensure top-quality service while abroad.\\
* If you bend over to close your suitcase and hear a "Zwip! Thump!" sound, then discover a knife wobbling in the wall behind you, it could mean you've unintentionally become entangled in a web of international espionage and intrigue.\\
* Carrying cash is unwise when traveling abroad; be sure to purchase plenty of McDonald's gift certificates before you leave.\\
* Before leaving home, take your pets to local humane society and have them put to sleep; get new pets when you come back.\\
* Many people in foreign countries do not speak English; you may need to speak louder and/or slower in order to make yourself understood.\\
* When traveling through Europe, remind everyone you encounter that, if not for America, they would all be speaking German. (Note: Does not work in Germany.)\\
* Do not treat foreign waiters with the slightest shred of human dignity; a friendly attitude will only earn their disrespect.\\
* When traveling through Italy, be sure to get a load of the racks on some of those Ginas.\\
* If you see Karl Malden ominously narrating before a camera while you are checking into a hotel, keep an extra-close eye on your credit cards; a commercial may be being filmed with you as the subject/victim.\\
* When in Great Britain, remember to follow local customs and eat with a pair of tweezers.\\
* When reentering U.S., remove heroin-filled condoms from stomach immediately.\\
* Foreigners have lots of colorful local customs and ways; many of them will not mind if you ask them to shoot bananas out of their vaginas, blow smoke rings with their anuses, or perform fellatio on mules. Live it up a little! It can't hurt to ask.

->Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
->Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
->But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
