Eric, I appreciate the invite, FRiend - but my impression is that my two great loves - Live Italian Opera Performances and Live Performances of Shakespeare are not a big thing down that way. But please correct me if I am mistaken!

Enjoy the hunting!

Well... Country & Western Mecca Branson is about 90 minutes away.

They have opera but I don't think its performed by Italians.

There are some interesting numbers below....at some point its gonna start looking like a “bank run” ...which is essentially what it is...

The Feds are desperately worried some of the 50% of the population they use as cash cows to help them fund their delusions are catching on...and leaving....

“Last year, almost 1,800 people followed Superman’s lead, renouncing their U.S. citizenship or handing in their Green Cards. That’s a record number since the Internal Revenue Service began publishing a list of those who renounced in 1998. It’s also almost eight times more than the number of citizens who renounced in 2008, and more than the total for 2007, 2008 and 2009 combined.”

http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/04/16/us-usa-citizen-renounce-idUSBRE83F0UF20120416

Even more alarming....in 1997 the list was ONLY 90 people renouncing...so that year, 2011, it was TWENTY times greater that in 1997...

FRiend ... there is a difference between “opera” and “opry” - though both can be very enjoyable! -SMILE-

What they need to do is pass a law that no one can move from the state! Anyone who leaves the state without approval will have all their money and goods taken over by the state! That would work! Didn’t they do this in the USSR? See who well that worked.
