TOPIC: Vacation/Travel

[guidogodoy] Friday, January 14, 2011 10:17:52 PM

"Had" fun is better said. Got back after one huge day of travel. Particular phrasing of the most isolated island chain. Most (like Wiki) refer to it as "distance from a continent" and it seems to be a pretty unanimous winner. Didn't know it but it was plastered all over O'ahu. Speaking of which, I got tired of hula music very quickly and decided to make requests. I tells ya, I'll die "Defending."   [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by Becks from Friday, January 14, 2011 9:32:01 PM)   Becks wrote: LOL I did a bit of googling too, I didn't think Hawaii was the most isolated chain of islands in the world? Random. Hope you're having fun!      guidogodoy wrote: Ha! Cheater! I had never been and had no idea that they were supposedly the most isolated island chain on the planet. It was in the guide book and I still had to confirm it with a google myself. Who'd a thunk it? Found it confirmed a bunch of places online, though.

You went to Hawaii?      guidogodoy wrote: HA! Sadly, I HAVE seen that film. I much prefer the Simpson's Halloween Special based on it. While I was voted off the island and returned home late last night, same problem....the Island of Dr. Moreau wasn't a chain. Also, at least to my knowledge, Val Kilmer was never known as "The Duke." May God have mercy on anyplace that would make a statue of him as well. lol      jimmyjames wrote: Are you on The Island of Dr. Moreau?      guidogodoy wrote: Well, while I'd certainly be well-suited for the Island of Misfit Toys, it has the same problem as Easter Isle. It is only one island. Plus, like Easter Island and the Isles of Tierra del Fuego, they are all close to something. How long did it take Rudolph to get there? Two clicks from the North Pole. While JJ had the most creative answer (never saw that show. Why were there no people of color on that "world boat?" Hell, there was even a yellow Power Ranger!) Becks, while not 100%, was actually the closest. Hint? I could walk down to the beach each day and be welcomed by a statue of "The Duke."       METALMANJP wrote: I have the answer....

SUCKED!
