You know, I just googled pictures of large US government buildings and then thought 'Holy crapola, they'll think I'm a terrorist'

If I go off line and you never hear from me again, I'm probably being water boarded down in Guantanamo Bay

p.s. Cuba is a great country and I really enjoyed my vacation there - you guys in the States don't know what you're missing!
