It so happens ten US cities were mentioned. I seeded them in the order mentioned in the other thread. Funny Los Angeles was not mentioned.

I can't believe NY is leading over las Vegas.  Vic must be voting with all his nics.  Wake up people!!!  Las Vegas would be the bomb!  Strippers, hookers, casino's, etc etc.  

Most sensible fibster,

And who the hell nominated Santa Barbara?  Criminy!  This place is full of nuts.

Having just been in New York, my only concern is that someone find some way to pull it off relatively cheaply.  I couldn't turn around without losing another $20.00.  Then, having drinks with lews, I spent a hundred bucks.  Of course, we did drink like pros.

Damn, you mean the mookster and lews were in the same place at the same time - and I missed out?? That would have been worth a hundred bucks in entertainment value - course one would have to watch ones footwear...

Toe nibbling is one thing - taking chunks out of DMs is quite another...

I'd like to see some alternatives off the beaten path, places people might like to see, take kids to, and have an otherwise good time.  The Grand Canyon suggests itself, as does San Antonio, Gettysburg, and Washington DC.

The grand canyon is awesome - highly recommended!!  I knew a photograph would never do it justice - and I was right.  maybe someday I will get to see those other attractions - wonder if they hold backgammon tourneys there?  ;)
