02/26/2004: Stupid Vacation Poll.

I think it’s time for another stupid survey poll thing. Let’s see hm hm erm ahm. Okay, here we go: name your dream vacation spot. I know it’s a lame question, but I’m voyeuristically curious. Your dream vacation spot can be anywhere on the planet and can be someplace you have or haven’t already visited. If anyone feels like getting extra creative, name the best vacation spot you’ve actually been to, along with the worst. Post in the comments…

Best vacation: eh, England I guess

Worst vacatation: mexico, I was too young to know what the hell was going on.

Dream: Australia or Japan…I know a cute girl who is from Australia, so I lean towards that…

Straight boring answers: New York (never been), Texas, San Francisco, Japan and most of Asia (honestly, though, I want to go to Cambodia more than Thailand for its "off the beaten track" appeal), India… erm, most of Europe, especially England (though I’ve been many times… I was born there).

Slightly more interesting answers:

I like being cozy when I’m sleeping, so I want to go somewhere really, really cold, since you can really only feel cozy, snuggly warm if it’s really, really cold outside. So, I’d love to go somewhere like Svalbard/Spitsbergen, Whitehorse, Inuvik, Fairbanks, Iceland, or Murmansk. Or, if it existed, I’d go to 5ºE 75ºS in Antarctica and visit Cobra Recreational Base number three, where you can play table tennis and swim in the Cobra Commander gymnasium, eat lunch in the Destro dining room or watch the Cobra Cuties in the Zartan entertainment center.

Also, I’d love to take a train across a continent, like the Trans-Siberian Railroad, or the new one in Australia.

When I was a teenager, I dreamed of running naked with the Kayapo in the Amazon, but… I dunno… I didn’t take into consideration the mosquitoes and the snakes and the little toothy fish that can swim up your urine stream as you pee and lodge itself in your urethra.

My dream vacation? Eh, I don’t know.
If you ask me, I think Cobra Island was always an untapped resource for great tourism potential. None of those Cobra goons really seemed cut out for terrorism, anyway, and would probably all be happier making mai-tai’s and pina coladas on the beach while wearing little hawaiian shirts and straw hats. Put those twins in charge of the business side of it, and you’re sitting on a gold mine that’s bound to pay off better than giving away free money with a picture of Cobra Commander on it (what was up with that anyway?).
They’ve even got guys that were born for Vegas-style stage shows and other attractions: Croc Master with his trained crocs; Dr. Mindbenders perfectly-chiseled pecs; Crystal Ball with his stupid hyno-wheel thingie. Heck, the Dreadnoks are practically human versions of the Country Bear Jamboree.

Oh, I forgot one, Kerguelen, a medium-sized island in the Indian Ocean between India and Antarctica that gets extremely high winds which make the place frigid, even if it’s at an equivalent lattitude (except in the wrong hemisphere) from Vancouver (49ºS). It’s a protectionate of France, so France has a few research stations there. It’s one of the most remote places on Earth.

Best vacation I had was at Centennial Cottages PEI. The cottages were close to lots of attractions like deep sea fsihing, fine dining and the beach.

A weird lost weekend around a small town with Thomas Haden Church where we dine at crappy restaurants, buy a crappy Epson printer and go home and watch the crappy 80s series "The Bronx Zoo" on a T-160 video tape.
