Thanks for sharing your adventures. 🙂 Maybe someone with renal failure (they don't pee) and a colostomy bag (no poo) would like to rent your toilet-...

🙂 The Sphinx pose... I've never called it that, but Carmen does that, too. She also does the donut and what I call the frog... back legs splayed out...

Good luck with your ad! What should I wear to the wedding? Nope, I don't think this is the kind of thing you do when you're younger... this is th...

If you DO find him, you've GOT to come back and let us know what happened. It's cruel and unusual punishment to leave us hanging. 🙂 Good luck!

All good suggestions, but one thing I'd add is to find an Italian Greyhound breeder and ask what he/she does. Many breeders show their dogs internatio...

Just a quick note/question about bats. Do they carry rabies on STX like they do on the mainland? Here, they're one of the top carriers of rabies, and ...

Glad to hear JJ's first day started off well. I remember being a nervous wreck on my first day of kindergarten! Sounds like he'd be a good influence o...

Well, Paula, I don't live on STX (yet!), but I'll chime in anyway because I'm all excited that some books I ordered about STX arrived today. I got "Li...

I like it! I have noticed quite a few old cars ruining the views. They're probably not particularly safe, either, with all that oil, gas, etc. leaking...

truebluefan, thanks for asking some good questions on here. I've been taking mental notes. 🙂 I have to agree with Alexandra about the people, althou...

Thanks for sharing your story. It's nice to hear that some things are easily fixed. 🙂 I hope everything continues to go well! Keep us posted. I...

I'm glad to hear that PetSmart ships to STX. What about pet sitting? I travel with my dog whenever possible, but I know there will be times when ...

LOL, I listened to that station all over the island in my rental car, and I've had it bookmarked on my computer since I got back! (At the time, they w...

I agree, Terry. In the (way too short) week we were there in February, one of our favorite things to do was to sit at one of the bars on the beach in ...

Uniforms are popular at schools here in Phoenix. However, sometimes I think the joke is on the adults. The students do anything they possibly can to m...

You would think tourists would try to preserve the places they visit, but I guess they just don't think about it. When I was at Point Udall in Februar...

Great site, stxem! Thanks!

Sabrina and Trade, that's what I thought, too. I don't know if it's that particular flight (to San Pedro Sula, Honduras) or international flights in g...

Thanks for sharing your experiences and good advice. I agree with the comments about American Airlines... they're difficult to work with. I have a 5 p...

On a somewhat related note... once you have your USVI license, if you come back to the mainland and try to use it, do you encounter problems with geog...

I'm jealous of your mangoes! When I was there in February, obviously, there were none. When I was a little kid and my cousins in Miami had a huge mang...

Juanita, it's been so long I had to look it up. I got them at Home Depot, but here's the website: www.plylox.com -- looks like a scam, but they actual...

I'm not an islander (yet), but I lived in New Orleans for 4 years, including Hurricane Katrina. I prepared my house for a handful of hurricanes and sp...

I grew up in a small town that's always getting fantastic reviews in various publications (best place to live, best place to raise children, best plac...
