   That's impressive @ChemEngrMBA
   I saw America through Wal~Mart warehouses @ 50, at the time, a scattered chasm of small town America.
   I was blessed.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Who cares? Stupid thread. I cannot possibly remember all the places I have been. If I could I would not bother to write them here. And anyone can say anything anyway. Who will be the first to write has been to 'Mare Tranquillitatis'. The whole thing is silly.

I attempted to quickly go through your list and weed out those places I have not been to while adding others I had been to but apparently failed.

Perhaps I'll try another approach later. @ChemEngrMBA

We've done this before here but I'm not inclined to dig back through 46,804 posts to find it.

This list is biased against anyone who might have spent several years drinking.

After all,how can you know where you have been,when you don't even know where,or even who,you are?

Not ME,of course,but other people.

Well, "Lord of All Things," since you think this is so "stupid," why don't you start a Brilliant Thread from Lord of All Things and "wow" the world.  We will hold our breaths.

Secondly, nowhere did I say this was a comprehensive list of everywhere I have been.  Your reading comprehension leaves a great deal to be desired, as does your kindness and tolerance level.

I suspect you are merely jealous of my extensive travels and cannot afford to do much yourself.

Now proceed with your Post of all Posts.  It will be awesome as you always are, Sour Grapes.

Once I got here, Here is where I been. Within a couple hundred miles of this spot right here.  Traveled some for the rodeo. A little more Cowboyin'... A couple vacays and business trips. But all in all, I have no need to roam... At least no need other than roaming right here... All my braggin about where I been is mostly within a hundred miles. And I will brag on that.

A message we all need to hear occasionally.

Including me.

It's just too easy to take random things written on the web personally. We all do it occasionally.
