Many, possibly all, of your credit cards do *not* belong to you.  If you
look at the fine print, it says "the card remains the property of [the
issuer]" or some such wording.

I understand that in Bulgaria a person would get one year in jail
for driving while intoxicated.  The a same person would be executed
for a repeat of this offense.  This does much to cure Bulgaria's
DWI rates and traffic accident reports.

I understand that in Russia you can be shot on sight for just being IN a 
car without a proper excuse...
