Well, what are you waiting for...where are the good ones!?


With some nice tasty bacon...mmm.

Well, there's mushrooms, and then there's the other mushrooms.

The first kind go well with bacon, and the others have a tendency to send you on long trips. If you found Farmer Maggot and came back without dog bites I think you were eating the other kind!

Fang, Grip and Wolf were all bark...lovely animals! Speaking of trips, per the title of the thread we ARE on our way to the pub, and from there who knows?

As for the old farmer, he's given us a ride and a basket full!

Does that mean I get to look like Sean Connery when I grow up?

The likeness is remarkable. You'll also have to explain to the wife that it's in your contract to get seduced by a pretty archaeologist by the name of Elsa Schneider whilst in Venice. Best break it to her gently...

Some sacrifices will obviously have to be made.

But I guess I'll just have to do my Doody,

eh, my duty... ;)

The state of Georgia in the USA. (I live in Minnesota. Actually, wait! No I don't! I'm on Skull Island! Ignore that first sentence! Forget I said anything! Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some bloodthirsty dinosaurs to hunt for supper...)

I used to play this. Catching dysentery, loosing my oxen fording a river, and having to hunt countless bears made me afraid to traverse the Oregon Trail!

I always enjoyed hunting beaver

From UK; furthest would be Washington (4374 miles). Foreign places I've been:

Most of Western Europe
Cyprus
Saudi Arabia
Bosnia
Egypt
Iraq
Afghanistan
Missouri
Tunisia

In Egypt I went to Cairo and Luxor - tip for those going to see the pyramids at Giza - one pyramid is closed for 4 months of the year on a rotational basis, so if you plan to go inside the Great Pyramid make sure it's going to be open when you're there!

getting lost

Well, certainly the most remote land location I've been is the South Pole, where I am again now. The closest I've probably come to my home's antipode is the Australian Outback around Alice Springs and Uluru (Ayer's Rock). Sailing in 2007, I went through the point in the Pacific Ocean that is the farthest from any continental landmass on the planet. That felt pretty far "out there", too.

Current temp @ Pole: -66°F (about 15° warmer than yesterday)
