"You sick evil geniouses, you." -SV in response to GS's letter last time
What is wrong with this? YOU MISSPELLED GENIUS!!!!13%!@!@165273GAGHAH&!%@&!N00B6&#!$#!@
Okay, had to get that out. :P
The coolest place I've ever been to is oh wait VACATIONING AT OTHER PLACES SUCKS.
Thus making my favorite place to go HOME SWEET HOME.
I was at Pensacola, Florida the day those shark attacks began that lasted the whole
summer. Pretty crazy stuff. I even saw the ambulances and stuff. I was all "omgwtf
nevermind i'll just go back to my game boy" and I did just that.
Speaking of cool places, another one is SV's house and I hope I can vacation there
soon. *hint hint*

About the "geniouses" thing....it never happened (aka: it's been "corrected"). I remember you telling me about your adventures in Florida. I can definitely see you not caring and just going back to the good ol' GBA.

Home r where the heart is. |

Bah! Why bother leaving the house when I can use a holosimulator to perfectly
simulate a vacation in any area I desire? HAH!
-GSGold
Is this homosimulator portable, or is it a room? I'd like one of those. Free installation if not portable?

First of all, I've got to have this little rant. I've been to the Grand Canyon, and
it is not the greatest place I've been to. I have relatives from South Dakota that
come over sometimes, and they're always like, "This is so great! We're going to see
the Grand Canyon!" And they'll always say all that crap about how it's "majestic"
and "amazing" and "a once in a lifetime experience". Let me tell you; IT IS NOT.
IT'S JUST A CANYON. The only thing special about it is the fact that it's so large,
but even this is deceptive. Do not beleive the postcards, do not believe the movies.
It's not all that big. There's actually a canyon about 2/3 the size a few miles from
where I live. The Grand Canyon is overrated.
Well, sorry about that. The coolest place I've been, though, is a hotel. Yes, a
hotel. A couple months ago, I took a school trip to Washington, D.C. for a week.
D.C., like the Grand Canyon, is overrated. There were kids who were all like, "Wow,
Abraham Lincoln was here once!" Big frickin whoop. The awesome part, though, was the
hotel we stayed in. There were no halls in it; all the rooms had doors (and
windows!) going off of a sort of common. At the center of this common was a swimming
pool. Oh sweet Jesus yes. There was also a staircase leading up to the second floor,
which had all the room entrances on a walkway, sort of like in an apartment complex.
And we could do anything we wanted for a acouple hours after we got back from
sightseeing; we could swim, play cards, go in the gift shop with the little old
mexican woman behind the desk, or chill in our rooms. I tell you, man, this place
was great! It was made even better by the fact that I was there with 20 of my
classmates!
. So if you're ever in D.C., take my advice: Forget the White House or Lincoln
Memorial. Go to that hotel.

I've been to the Grand Canyon...like you said, it really isn't that great. Now Muir Woods, that's a cool place. I like trees. :D
I love hotels, even if it is a Quality inn in North Carolina. XD It's fun to just chill in your room and talk with your teammates (oh yeah, I should tell you most of my trips out of state are baseball related). Plus the place we stayed in NC had moon pies. I was happy even though we lost both games. Sometimes the things you least expect to be fun can be.

I've been to Florida four or five times. It was pretty cool. I got to make fun of
people's accents and junk, and they treated me about like you guys do. :P It's
especialy funny how they think this little tiny hills are big, because the whole
freakin' place is flat. And they think 30 gegrees is cold. Disney World abd Bush
Gardens were fun too, I've been to both of them once.
And boger flavoured jelly beans are the best. But popcorn freakin' sucks.

Florida is pretty flat and the water tastes bad too. : / Oh well, maybe one day I'll be down there when I'm not playing baseball and I'll get to go to one of hte theme parks and have fun. :)
It's funny when people come down to Georgia and talk about our accents like they didn't expect it. It's just sad when the people who have lived here their whole life still talk abou it like it's weird.

HAPPY FUN LAND!!! (AKA Staple's house)
Hm...I don't get to go to cool places. I went to a cool theme park, but rode some
stupid rides, and when were about to go on some cool water rides, my sister threw
up, and we had to leave!!!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAnk.
-StarKirby
Uh...I'm sorry you don't consider any place you've been to be cool. It didn't have to be amazing, just cool to you. I like soap's house. It's fun to hang out there because I don't get to too often.

All the small things |

When I try to think of the "coolest" place I've ever been my mind automatically
starts to draw a blank. It's not that I've never been anywhere of interest, it's
that I have a very difficult time deciding where I enjoyed the most. I'm always up
for travel, and can't stand being in the same place for extended periods of time, as
I tend to get "cabin fever" so to speak.
For someone so firmly against staying home it may come as a surprise to some of you
that I've never left the country. However I have travelled a good deal within the
United States, I've yet to venture outside of the boarders of this nation. At one
point I was on a trip North to Western Canada but was stopped short by a car
accident three quarters of the way there.
Well, one of my most noteworthy of trips was certainly my trip down to the drug
store a few weeks ago. I walked almost half a mile, purchased a pack of gum and
some chips, and braved the half a mile back to my own house. It's things like that
day that really breathe life into my body and let me know that I'm alive.
Never again will I be oppressed by the confines of my own house. I plan on freeing
myself from this cultural moot point created by over a decade of lethargic attitudes
and pinned down aggression. Break the shackles of a desperate nation, and bring us
all to peace.
Thank you.

A man of the small things in life? It's funny how a mundane place you visit every day can be better than an exotic place you visit only once. Looking back on previous entries, I noticed that I've made a few other ironic comments like the last one.
I've travelled across much of the country myself. Last summer my family and I drove out to California to visit my uncle. We stayed there a few days and then drove back home to Georgia. It wasn't any one place that was amazing, but it was the trip itself. Granted, I really like the petrified forest in Arizona, but during the trip I got to see how different the country in so many places and had a great time doing it.
It's the little things we do every day that keep us alive and sane, right? Might as well enjoy doing them.
