My Travel
I plucked this off Ann's blog. I don't like the idea of judging how well travelled you are by whether or not you've been to key cities they've selected. For instance I'm 100% well traveled in the Midwest without their knowing if I've ever been to Cleveland, Milwaukee, St. Louis, or Balltown, Iowa. Likewise are you really well travelled in the South if you've been to Memphis, New Orleans, Atlanta and a bunch of resort cities in Florida but you've never been to Kentucky, Eastern Tennessee, Virginia, the Carolinas, or Alabama and Mississippi? I'll accept that I'm mostly untravelled I just don't think I like the limitations of the quiz.

I agree with the complaints--I was well traveled in the Western US because I have been to Phoenix, Sedona, Scottsdale, and Tucson? Dude, it's a two hour radius to those points!
And I'm only 15% traveled in the Southern US when I was born and raised in KY, went to school in East TN, drove to several points in NC and VA, and visited Atlanta, Chatt, and Nashville multiple times?
I fart in that quiz's general direction. Its mother was an atlas and its father smells of mimeographs.
Yeah, it has some problems. I'm 'mostly untraveled' in Canada, despite having driven across half the continent and all the way up Vancouver Island; then again, I'm also 'mostly untraveled' in Eastern Europe, which is most peculiar since they treat the UK separately and I've never been anywhere else in Europe at all. So I guess the fact that they think I've been to Europe (apart from the UK) balances out their poor opinion of my Canadian travels. Generally, I think it's the focus on big cities that's the problem.
I guess you'll need to retake the quiz now.
I don't know about you all, but I think Everett's gone on blog-strike.
Well, if you want to blog about travel, why don't you blog about the Alamo? I'd like to read something new here, Brother. I love you anyway!
