In the U.S. I once received a chain email warning women not to hang their purses on the hook inside the toilet stall door, because a thief could reach over the door and grab your purse by the handle. What a society of fear we live in in the U.S.! Japan and Canada prove that it doesn't have to be that way! - KimiKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07801232952297833350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563638345776475818.post-7984367546064004062009-02-07T21:28:00.000-08:002009-02-07T21:28:00.000-08:00Maybe you should come to visit us in Ottawa, Canad...Maybe you should come to visit us in Ottawa, Canada, then. I once dropped a baby product new-in-a-box in a path, went back 2 days later and it was still there. I also go to the bathroom and leave my purse at the table all the time. When we go into a cafe, we'll leave the rather expensive bike stroller outside. Bikes do get stolen a lot though, so that doesn't work. In rural areas, I've also seen the same produce purchasing system. You know when I first moved here, I thought it was so weird too, but it is so nice to be in society where there is, in general, a good sense of fairness. Exceptions prove the rule, but there you go.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563638345776475818.post-49270636837508998502009-02-07T06:57:00.000-08:002009-02-07T06:57:00.000-08:00"Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is ..."Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you sit down quietly, may alight upon you."
