Where should GOPisEvil go during his time off later this month?

[GOPisEvil]

Poll question: Where should GOPisEvil go during his time off later this month?

OK folks, I just got the GRRRRREAT news that my leave for Dec. 29-Jan. 2 has been approved. So, allowing for holiday time off granted by my employer, my last day of work is Dec. 23 and I return to work Jan. 5.

So, after Christmas, I've got some time to travel, if I want. Where should I go? And, more importantly, on whose couch can I crash. :D

[Robb]

1. Go to NYC!

...Watch that big lighted pear drop! :evilgrin:

[GOPisEvil]

4. Big lighted pear?

Ooooooohhhh...you're gonna get it...:evilgrin:

[ZenLefty]

2. Just stay home and post on DU

What could be a better vacation than that?

[GOPisEvil]

3. I could consider GD a vacation to Hell.

:scared:

[ZenLefty]

44. Don't be afraid

Just go in and tell them all the reasons you support Leiberman. I'm sure it will not only facilitate some animated discussion, but people will have lots of interesting things to say about you too. :D

[GOPisEvil]

45. They'll have all sorts of interesting ways I can spend my vacation time.

Most notably, suggestions for physically impossible acts upon my own body.

[ZenLefty]

49. It'll be like Yoga

Your personal little mini-trip to Sri Lanka in your own living room. :D

[LynneSin]

5. You can hang out with me

I have a free sofa you can sleep on!!!

[GOPisEvil]

10. Now we're talkin'! Free lodging people! That's where it's at!

}(

[LynneSin]

30. You're always welcomed in my home

Just give me a 1 hour notice so I can clean up the place

[supernova]

6. Come to NC

then go to Europe! :D

We'd be happy to have you. You can meet our little NC clique.

[GOPisEvil]

13. Multiple destinations!

I like it! :D

[pmbryant]

7. Canadian Rockies

Ski trip to the beautiful Canadian Rockies.

I've never been there, and am not much of a skier, but we've been planning that trip for the last 4 years, and it always gets bumped. I think you should go in our place and tell us all about it.

:-)

[GOPisEvil]

8. Actually, I'm considering that for a summer trip

Escape the heat, and see the scenery. I'm not a skiier either. Oh, prices are lower in the summer too.

[pmbryant]

16. LOL

One problem we had is we couldn't make up our mind to go in the winter, relax and do some light skiing, or go in the summer and do mucho biking and hiking. So we went to Europe last year instead (ok, I tagged along on my partner's business trip).

:crazy:

I hear the Canadian Rockies are very crowded in the summer. That was the downside of that option for us.

:shrug:

--Peter

[GOPisEvil]

19. Really? Crowded then, too.

Crap. I've always wanted to go to Banff. Gorgeous up there.

[YNGW]

9. Here's An Idea

I hear San Marcos, TX is nice this time of year.

[GOPisEvil]

11. Er...I can go there anytime.

It's a 30 minute drive. At, it is lovely. At least today it is. Nice and sunny.

[YNGW]

14. Yeah, but......

......have you ever really BEEN there, you know, really, really BEEN there, because until you've really, really BEEN there, you've never REALLY been there. You know.

[GOPisEvil]

15. I go to the Triple Crown fairly often...

...if that's not BEING there, what is? ;-)

[YNGW]

18. OK....

.... we''l let that count, for now.

[VelmaD]

12. Someplace warm

with a beach and cabana girls in skimpy outfits to bring you drinks served in coconuts with little umbrellas in them. :-)

[GOPisEvil]

17. Ooooohhh

Cabana girls in skimpy outfits...

[XNASA]

20. Come and visit.

Then again, Chicago is so boring. There's never anything to do. And, I mean, it's not like it's really beautiful here around the Holidays or anything.....

[GOPisEvil]

21. Yeah, I was bored stiff my last trip up there.

The people? Sheesh. BO-ring! ;-)

[prolesunited]

41. Well if you're going out East

It would be easy enough to make a stop in Chicago. :hi: The huge holiday display at Museum of Science and Industry, the Manet exhibit at the Art Institute, the lights and store windows on State Street... and, and, and, SNOW! :D

[Rabrrrrrr]

22. Dude - it's winter - escape the cold and go to Austin!

Warm there, and you can check out their great music scene. Maybe even get on Austin City Limits. Maybe someone from Austin could put you up for a few days?



I would also suggest NYC. You could stay here, 'cept I won't be back until Jan. 2, so that might be a problem.

[GOPisEvil]

25. I, uh...er...hmmm...hadn't thought of Austin...

:think:

[Rabrrrrrr]

26. Then it's a good thing you posted your question here!

DUers are so helpful.

[arwalden]

23. Washington is 5 miles from my house...

... let me know if you choose here.

-- Allen

[GOPisEvil]

24. Will do!

It is on the short list, definitely. Especially with the new Air and Space museum at Dulles Airport. :bounce:

[soleft]

27. My boss was just telling me I should go to Montreal

He says this time a year it's real cheap cause it's so cold.

[GOPisEvil]

29. Hmm...Canada...suspiciously absent from the poll...

:think:

[WillParkinson]

28. OOH! I have a suggestion...

I'm kind of surprised Catwoman hasn't beat me to it...

<giggle>

[GOPisEvil]

31. *blink*

*blink blink blink*

I'm lost. But, I'm sure it's funny. :D

[GOPisEvil]

32. afternoon...

:kick:

[radwriter0555]

33. YOU want me to invite you to LOS ANGELES. I see how you are.

Well lemme know if you're passing through. We'll toss down dinner at Dan Tana's.

Lemme know if you cruise through Vegas too. I'm itchy to play.

[GOPisEvil]

34. Ahem...well...

...am I THAT transparent? :evilgrin:

I'll certainly keep you posted. :-)

[radwriter0555]

35. Like GLASS darlin, like glass! AFTER being 'windexed"...

Keep me posted. We'll kick up the dirt if you roll through this dusty, no good, sleepy cow town.

[GOPisEvil]

36. Hrm...side trip to Vegas...

:think:

[underpants]

37. Key West

Cuba maybe?

It's worth the trip and a great time. Snowbirds should be getting there soon.

[GOPisEvil]

38. I'd have to leave from Mexico to get to Cuba...

...it's that multiple destinations thing again. :bounce:

[underpants]

39. Or Canada

I think.

:scared:Duck and change directions.:scared:

[GOPisEvil]

40. Oh. Canada.

I just think of Mexico first, since it's so close.

[buddhamama]

42. if you've got the time and can afford the cost of travel

spread yourself around and make many DUers happy!

wherever you end up, have fun!

[GOPisEvil]

43. Hehehe! That's on my list of things to do when I win the lottery.

Buy a Winnebago and drive the country hanging out with DUers as I make the rounds. :D

[buddhamama]

52. i may be getting a little too...uhm...forward

but i'd go visit your friend who lives in the Seattle area.

[GOPisEvil]

53. I'd like nothing more.

But, alas, the timing may not work. That is, if we're talking about the same friend in the Seattle area. ;-)

[jobycom]

46. Save money! Rent a box on the Drag! nt.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

47. New Year's Eve fireworks at Copacabana Beach (nt)

[BurtWorm]

48. If you could get to Spain, I highly recommend it.

The climate is warm. The people are warm. The orange juice is warm. The beer is warm. Scratch that last one. The orange juice is served room temperature, but not the cerveza. At least the oranges are fresh.

Wow. I'm not doing too great a job of selling Spain, am I? But don't take my word for it. Take thousands of years of history's word. Andalucia is the best! Granada is the best of Andalucia! The rest of Andalucia is not far behind.

[Bertha Venation]

50. Dude, there's really only one choice, isn't there?

In N Out
In N Out
That's what a hamburger's all about!

[GOPisEvil]

51. LOL!!!!

(Checks air fare to California)

Mmmmmm...In'n'Out...:9

[proud patriot]

54. SF Bay Area ..Cause I want to part w/ you

:loveya: You could stay at my place ,

I have a hide-a-bed and a bunk bed .

[GOPisEvil]

55. Awww...thanks! I'd love partying with you too.

Dogs are cool! :thumbsup:
