if you had went to Branson, you could have seen Yakov Smirnoff.

I'll get there eventually.

Jeez, I could spend the whole vacation exploring this hotel.  :huh:

When I was here like 15 years ago it was huge, but I think it's much huger now.

It is glorious when you can spend the entire trip in the hotel. GLORIOUS.

I think I could seriously do that.  This section of the hotel is called "Cascades", because right outside my balcony window there is a freaking full sized waterfall and an interior rain forest. :cool:

I just got back from the Country Music Hall of Fame and Jack's BBQ, which had some of the best brisket I've ever had plus they had Carolina mustard BBQ sauce. :punk:

A thousand Larry the Cable Guy jokes just went into my head with the mention of the Bass Pro Shops.

Perhaps I'll wear my Bass Pro Shops T-shirt and cowboy hat for you and take a pic, Mr. Anger.

Please, no. I'm not fascinated on seeing everybody's picture. Especially males.

Princesca doesn't want to see the Parthenon because "Why not just see the real one in Athens?"

Because the one in Athens was blown to hell when the Venetians decided to store their powder magazine inside it?

The one in Tennessee is a reproduction of what it might have looked like in its prime and is really something to see.

When I saw the Parthenon, it was a (re)construction site with cranes and all that.  I was told it would remain that way for many years.  Another problem was that the best stuff was in the British museum  :lol:

Still, the Acropolis was worth seeing.

Morton's Nashville :thumbsup:

I prefer Ruth's Chris Steak House than Morton's, but it is still good.  I find the quality pretty similar, but Morton's is more expensive.

My best friend's 1st wife is a relative of his.  They saw him at a music festival in his hometown several years ago.
