It's a country that's overlooked since UAE has skyscrapers or high rises while Oman doesn't have that (since their focus is more on culture and maintaining the "old Arabia" look & vibe whilst being rich in their own way). I mean, you can look up travel content about the UAE and there's tons of results while for Oman the amount of travel content is kind of sparse in comparison even though people do go there.

I know that in certain countries like Japan or South Korea: it's normal to leave the front door unlocked since the probaility of someone breaking in is low since their crime rate isn't high. I knew a friend of mine who resides in Korea where they even left the car unlocked with the keys inside, can you do either of those things in America?

The scenario is: landlord or lady intends to ask the tenant about the rent (because money from their account is not there to be withdrawn from) only finding the tenant's corpse, meaning they are not alive. Whether there is foul play involved or it's self inflicted (suicide): does that circumstance alone just "erase" the tenant's due rent?

It may be shifted onto the roommates (if he has one, but in this case there're none) and even they had company: it's not their problem as the landlord or lady only speaks to the tenant who signed the lease but that's not possible since the tenant passed. Would the landlord or lady just ask for the tenant's last will & testament instead?

The worst movie directed by Alfred Hitchcock was "Juno & the Paycock" (1930) since most of it takes place within a single setting plus the story's pacing is slow as fuck (not until the end that the plot evolves). The best one he directed for me personally is "Strangers on a train" (1951) since the acting is good & engaging plotline. Other ones that are also good are: The Birds, Vertigo, Psycho, North by Northwest to name a few.

Remember the days before streaming services were a thing? Yep, basically that: as in people would burrow a rented copy from a friend who paid money to obtain a official copy on DVD from blockbuster then ripping the contents into those blank DVDs (the white ones) meaning they've pirated a copy for home use but it's still a "torrent". I remember watching a ripped copy of Finding Nemo (or other kids movies from that era) when I was younger.

The same with "lending" a purchased copy from a store a friend has proceeding to rip the DVD content onto a blank DVD having a copy. Then there are CAM's (pirates using a video camera to record the film upon being shown in theaters) usually they do this around the debut (new releases in cinema) by sneaking a camcorder but the footage is shit (I remember back in 2010, I've seen Alice in Wonderland via CAM and it sucked due to bad resolution and audio).

Like this: buying a bunch of anime goodies (plushies, games, merch), Japanese knives & second hand electronics from Akihabara in which all sum up to ¥290,000 in customs value from a consolidated package.
