I once ate barracuda while in Trinidad.[/quote]
What type of soda or pop goes best with barracuda? Does Trinidad have any freeways or expressways? Do they have any million dollar game shows in Trinidad?

They have a version of their national beer called Carib Shandy, and it seriously tastes like Big Red (the soda not the gum)
..used to be available in the states, but I've been told they don't import Carib anymore.
Trinidad has many two-lane and single lane roads and locals seem not to be too concerned with which side of the road to ride on.
While there one of the days had torrential rain, so we did chill inside and scan the TV selection, I remember they had GSN (this was back in 1999 -- before I got it here in the states) and watched that horrible Peck 3's a Crowd a couple of times. They seemed to have some sort of NBC deal that we've seen in other countries where they run older (but seemingly only NBC) shows such as older eps of Friends and the Cosby Show. The only Trini-related TV content seemed to be local news. No million dollar shows (at the time)
but if there were any, $1m TTD (Trinidad/Tobago dollars, not the *other* ttd :d ) would be about $115,000 USD. Lots and lots of steel drums.
a carib game show would be awesome, but i've never heard of any..
/yassee how even in off-topic tangents we come full circle here? :p
