"maybe they knew I was going."
Tee Hee.
I looked into the bank account thing over 10 years ago when I started doing my extended time and thought I'd need to bring a boat load of cash down. After seeing and hearing about what was entailed I blew it off. Like I said, for my purposes, being here 3 months, its easy and inexpensive enough for me to take care of things from the states.
Now, when my friend opened that US Fund account - and he's had a bank account at NCB since the year of the flood, it was STILL 45 minutes sitting there with paperwork. No suh. Got better things to do (though it was hot as hell out that day and waiting in air conditioning didn't suck that bad.)
