Lots more plants for sale, North side STT. $5-$7. Episcia, Angel's Trumpet, spider plants, moringa saplings, custard apple seedlings - all super...

But again, none of the points you raise are peculiar to the USVI which you referred to as a "banana republic".

STTsailor, Have you ever lived or know of anyone who's lived and run a business in Costa Rica, Belize or Panama as an expat US citizen? A little...

At least that's been my experience. Statistically proven too.

This utopic suggestion of an influx of new residents contributing to the economy simply makes no sense in my opinion. The USVI population has remaine...

Nothing like an overflowing bucket of pessimism to brighten one's day.

I don't believe the free checking of liquor applies to flights leaving PR. As mentioned, it's a particular agreement entered into between the VI Gove...

How does having more people come here to live improve the economy?

And there you go. It's kind of like not having to have a VI drivers license to register a car in the VI or live in the VI for more than 30 days. There...

Yeah I don't know why AA doesn't have anything for that on their website. Maybe because it's neither a legality nor a corporate policy bur rather...

Does it look like the VI will get their act together anytime soon? In like the next few years? We have no idea. The crystal ball is foggy!

I would not be without the particulate filters, in any case, though, because any solid matter that gets through can end up clogging faucet aerators on...

Many do - large scale and small scale both.

It was the only thing I ingested that day. OT, sorry - I forgot you know everything. Wow, such belligerence towards someone who's agreeing with y...

Well, now you have. I drank bottled water over ice cubes that I didn't realize were made with cistern water (found out later) at a friend's place. Sta...

Or you can just drink it without filtration as thousands have done for generations with no ill effects. Just chlorinate occasionally. Exactly! N...

The owner of Famous Delite -[ Udder Delight] told me Sunday their lease is up in a few months and the plan for the dairy property is erecting more Mi...

But there also are those of us that feel STT has gone downhill and moved away. It's all personal perspective. The STT you know and love is not the sam...

Affordable individual health insurance is impossible to find and the territory does not subscribe to the Affordable Care Act.

9-12 weeks a year on an island (presumably not in the USVI) still makes you a newbie. Yes, I'm sure you've read my posts with the same advice to othe...

"I assume if you buy a car, you will have to register it in your name and once you do this, you will have to apply for a VI drivers license." Not...

"Our thoughts on the possible condo buy is that we could live in it for a year or so and then turn it into rental property (self managed to keep costs...

My one piece of advice (and I'm really emphatic about it) is NOT to buy anything - house or condo - until you've lived here for at least a year. I've...

I don't think you'll have the same issues as with the major airlines. Seaborne flies at a much lower altitude and it's a very short flight.

AandA2VI, so where does one find that $80 round trip between STT and STX - you never came back with that info and enquiring minds want to know the tri...
