What did you do? Did you have a guilt-ridden conscience crisis after you walked away? -------------------- My most recent blog: A trip to Toronto that turned into a trip to Niagara

I ask this because I asked a super body painted guy in Rhode Island to take his picture, but he said: "Yeah, for five bucks." I laughed, and then he said... "No, seriously" Like...OK buddy, whatever. I walked away with zero guilty conscience. I don't know if I would have felt the same way in a developing country though. -------------------- My most recent blog: A trip to Toronto that turned into a trip to Niagara
