    Hi all...new from Georgia

    Greetings AH, New member but I've been lurking around here for a bit. In the time I've been reading around here I've learned a few things: 1. Telling your wife you will just go to Africa once and "get it out of your system" can turn out to be problematic upon return from RSA. 2. The once...
