Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman drove a couple of motorcycles from London to New York the "Long Way Round". It was a TV series and DVD of the same name. They started in London and went through Europe>Ukraine>Russia>Kazakhstan>Mongolia>Siberia> U.S.A and Canada.

They also did the "Long Way Down" starting from the top of Scotland going all the way down to the bottom tip of Africa.

Perhaps I can do the "Long Way Round and Round" and go around the USA and Canada hitting every state and Province.

So waht you are saying is you like to travel?

I love traveling even though i have yet to go overseas. I have been to most states. The only states I have not been to are the southern ones but I also have only flown in a plane once and that was to vegas (which is a drive I have made about 5 times in my life). Road trips are the way to go!

What the hell is a canary??

Your probably ate at the Brown Derby, It's a really cool steakhouse at the MGM.

WOW! $1100 for two people? Did you get to take home the table and chairs?

The only time I could compare to that is when we ordered a bottle of wine that cost $200+ which was more than the actual meal and the final total came to about $350

I love traveling especially when it turns into an adventure. Road trips are definitely the best way to travel if you aren;t in a hurry and want the scenic route.

Definetly.... I have driven to montana a few times, Idaho, New York, Mexico, Canada, New Mexico, Arizona, and everywhere in between... I think the only place I never ever want to go to again is Utah. Ugh I hate Utah. What a desalate endless wasteland...

So are you saying when going through Utah just go full throttle and get through as quick as possible?

I'm sure it can't be all that bad, can it?

The only thing it is good for is the Entrprenours on the street corner serving god's gift to us human beings.....

Gyro's

Not the Gyros you get around where youur from the good, really, really good Gyros.

If you have had one you know what I am talking about.

If they are anywhere near the donor kabobs I used to get in London, I know exactly what you are talking about. That shit is the chronic.

<-- loves gyros

kickboy · May 29th, 2008, 06:49 AM

It is funny somone at my work just mentioned how bad gyros are in this area. The one girl said how good this one place was and everyone laughed at her when i said it does not compare to the New York Street corner guys.

Of course she never had one of them.

PoWdA · May 29th, 2008, 08:17 AM

I havn't had a New York street corner Gyro but we do have a few Gyro places aroudn town and each one is different, some way better than others. I don't know if they are comparable to New York Gyro but either way they are really fricken good.
