Here comes the lady with here daily questions but dear maya, u need to understand one thing and that is - "men never get lost" it's against the rule of the nature for men to admit that they are lost or to ask directions.....men would rather spend time n fuel but not ask for directions especially when they r lost

Once I was in la baule, France . I wanted to enjoy the city so I rented a bike to cruise around the city while doing that I discovered that I have reached to a nearby city ( it were small cities and close to each othe like khobar and Dhahran) I tried to return but couldn't find my way , and almost all the locals don't speak English so I decided to follow my gut and luckily it was right

constantly
Only once in recent memory.. in Rome.. in the middle of the night! Finally gave up and grabbed a cab, but the driver couldn't understand my pronunciation of the hotel's name. Finally I wrote it on a piece of paper--he threw his hands into the air (to indicate that my pronunciation had been sh*t) and took me there--overcharging me, btw, but hey, how could I complain?

@TheLoneRanger: I'm sorry, but I don't agree with that. I am a man and I would rather to ask for directions than wasting time looking for them. And yeah, I got lost many times in cities or places that are new to me as I spend more time outdoors than indoors. Sometimes the locals give me the right directions, and when not, I follow my guts. The GPS doesn't always help as the names people know for some streets are different from the official names of those streets.

a few times.
The internal GPS is not very accurate..

Sure, we used to go 'snake hunting' all the time when I was a kid and kept the ones we caught for pets, sometimes. Mostly just harmless garter snakes, though
