i know this sounds crazy to some of you, but you could also try learning to speak spanish, since people in most developed countries around the world are able to speak at LEAST two languages, except for here. the whole idea of 'i live in the USA, i don't need to learn any other language' is lame IMO

Where are these developed countries you speak of? Im Norwegian myself, but except for in Scandinavia and the UK I often have a hard time finding people in Europe that can carry a conversation in English. Visited Germany last summer, and except for some local college kids we met in a bar there were basically noone there that were even close to understand English. And its worse when you go further south in Europe.
