I know Paris is really bad about PP.  I generally put a wallet in my back pocket full of paper, and carry a slim wallet in my front pocket with a loose credit card to pay for whatever, so I don't ever expose anything.  If you're out of the main tourist areas you usually will be OK.  If you notice a young gypsie looking girl approaching you, asking questions of any sort, or someone asks if you speak English, do not respond, walk the other way.

That at least is a quantative metric (aside from wins being set aside).

All I want is A-> B safely and in manageable discomfort.  It's funny to me to glance at the prices for "Delta One" to Europe, $4800 from here to Paris in August.

A place called Holmann and Finch opened near us a few months back, we tried them today for lunch, the menu is a bit odd, to me.  Anyway, they had a cheeseburger and fries, but $24.  The fries were good, the burger was large and "OK", my wife said she prefers Farmburger where a beer and nice burger will run you $11. fries an extra something.

Boise should not be on these lists.  342 games all-time, compared to 1000+ for everyone else.  Not to mention the scheduling disparity.
