Let's say, hypthothetically, you were about to embark on a ROAD TRIP!! Let's pretend, just for kicks, you were going from one side of the US to the other. Where would you stop? Where would you avoid? What do you think it'd cost (no cheating if you've done this before ... teeheehee)?
The beauty of small town living...

- Bomont, West Virginia, United States
- When you have no idea what you're doing, somebody else will ... or at least make something up & run with it.

Hypothetically, if I were to take a trip like that, I'd probably skip downtown Denver during rush hour and all the rest stops in the state of Arkansas if possible. But's that just me.
CB
Oh...and I'd skipthe states of TX and MO. They're far too wide and take too many days to get through.
Hey CB! now you drive safe, thhats if your driving. silly goose
i loved the long drive thru texas.. i didnt really care for kansas but it was bearable. i have recieved tickets in utah, wisconsin, and arizona all out on the open highway ranging between 35 and 60 mph over the speed limit.
utah was the most understanding i recieved a 100 dollar fine for doing just a bit over 110 in a 55 mph zone back in 95 right before speed limits were raised.
i think i wouldnt avoid any state, they are all beautiful.
there are just some places at some times not to be. Los angeles on interstate 5 or 405 in mid afternoon into evening is a really bad area.
oh sry you said if its been done that i couldnt cheat. i could give alot of travel advice. i have been almost everywhere at 80 - 100 MPH.
Nashville Tenn. on I65 it is awful construction the last 5 years.
Teh most expensive thing about traveling across the US if your driving has got to be the gas.
Rose my dear, I think it is time to stop the anonymous comments.
She makes some mean scalloped potatoes too, which would be a better reason to stop at her house.
LOL My fan club/Rose-wanna-be/reputation enhancers far over-rate my ... "talents". LOL
Surely to goodness if he truly thought I was the best in town, I'd be much further along in my political career, don't you think? Is that the way it works?
I stopped at Rose's once. I didn't get anything but a cup of coffee.
You obviously wasn't in a position to help her further her I am Queen of Clay County political expectations then.
Jimmy isn't anymore, so Rose will Link be next? Oh wait, according to the other blog, you have down went there! Teeheehee, I forgot!
I love it when you can tell who the poster is by the grammer.(poo flinger) If you don't like Rose why do you keep coming to her blog? Why don't you make up your own "I Hate Rose" blog instead of getting your great big nasty bloomers in a twist when she gets more attention than you do.
lol you said "bloomers"
i didn't know they were called that when they got that big. i figured MP's size would be called something like behemothly large rearend covering
LOL My political aspirations are so {ahem} *overblown*.
I think Queen of Clay County should get her own float in the Apple Festival parade. I need to start practicing The Wave. Anybody got a T-top or convertible I can ride in? I'd really dig something like a '65 Mustang or maybe a Stingray. That'd be way cool.
Geez. I don't have a thing to wear in a parade. Hmm. But I should get free food. That'd be nice. I so love funnel cakes.
OH! I KNOW! I can ride in a kicka*s truck & haul a trailer with all my ... "been there, done thats" riding in it!
OH! OH!! I could probably win the Best of Show, too, if I put a big Golden Delicious Baboon tree in the bed of the truck & let my "fan club" cling to the branches! Instead of candy, they could hand out little unwrapped Tootsie Rolls! They kinda look like poo, right?
Man, this is GREAT!! Queen AND Best of Show winner. Surely to goodness that'd help my political career, wouldn't it? Today, Queen of Clay .... tomorrow ... the possibilities are endless.
It's good to be me.
You taking applications for that trailer?
Or you could ride on a hay wagon. I think Tom Dawson is for hire.
I thought Tom had one for fire.
woohoo i wanna ride your trailer
where do i apply and when are auditions and/or try outs.
Woo Hoo! I think you should hold the auditions or tryouts. Then you can see who all plays on this blog!!!
3 more days. EEK!
CB
If you rode on Tom trailor you could go out in blazes.
You could name it Charriots of Fire
Goodness! Gracious! Great balls o' fire!!
WOOOOOHOOOOOOO!! 3 MORE DAYS!!
Chariots of Fire? More like Knees of Fire, I'd say. LOL
I hope they'll let me pick where I want my float in the line up. Not first, I don't think. Definitely before the horses, though. Not too close to the band. Hmm.
I think using Tom's truck is actually a great idea. I could forget about shopping for a fancy ol' dress & just wear some old cut-offs & hack the sleeves off an old flannel shirt. Should I take my teeth out or leave them in?
Ah, it's tough being Queen, but since I've been thusly annointed, I guess I'll just have to muddle through.
I guess I should get started on building a royal court ... who wants to be a jester?
I vote AW for jester. I think he'd be perfect for the little court jester hat with the bells and the leotards and shoes with pointy-curly toes!
In my journey across America where would I not stop. West Virginia would be one place not to stop with the Morons living there. Also no purchase of anything more then necessary to get across the state, prices are inflated to the extint of extinction of tourism.
I also see where there are rednecks allowed to beat up old people and terrorize the neighborhood. I used to travel throughout West Virginia but now with all the Mountaintops removed what is the point of being the Mountain State and should be named the Mountainless State. Gutted by Politicians is an understatement for what is being done to the mountains. No just skip West Virginia for your vacation time and go to a User Friendly State.
Bad news anon...all states have their negative issues. Out here in Oregon, one of the socalled evergreen states, the mountains have been clear cut by the logging industry. What used to be beautiful green mountains all year round are now ugly grey mountains all year round.
How about if you jot down a list the states that don't have morons or rednecks in them. I'm getting ready to travel thru about 11 states and I want to see if I'll be lucky enough to hit any of the "moron-free" states.
I too was really suprised to see the headline in the news that read, "West Virignia Only State in the Union to Legalize the Terrorizing of Old People and Neighborhoods". Why people aren't making some sort of mass exodus to the "user-friendly states", I can't imagine.
If you think WV is the only state with these issues, you might pick up a national newspaper like USA Today or maybe watch the evening news on the tv. I think you'd be suprised to find that West Virgina rarely makes the news much like Oregon doesn't. Every state has the same problems and even with the the mountaintop removing and the clear cutting, I think they're two of the more beautiful states in the US (and I've been to most of them).
Tell us too, which of the states are the "user friendly" states in the US. I think we'd all like to know which ones they are.
CB
I could be wrong, but I think New York, Michigan, Maryland & Florida are big "user friendly" states. They make the drug news a lot, so they must be. Oh, wait. There's also Ohio, Texas & California.
You don't hear much about "users" in Kansas, Arkansas, Idaho or the Dakotas, so maybe those are the "user friendly" ones.
& wherever Willie Nelson lives must be "user friendly" too.
That moron thing, though ... I think that's global.
anon 7;30 I don't know what state that your live it, but I bet the crime rate is just as bad as Clay. you are on a site that every one talk about something when it happens, most big city you don't know about the crime when thay happen right outside of you door. Last Sundy night four police cars were next door and I still don't know what went down. I lived in WV for three years and I thought it was a pretty safe place.
But then I never ran into Mikie.
Not only do you not know about the crimes in the big cities, most people don't give a rip.
Here in Clay, where you're an "outsider" if people don't remember your great great great grandparents, everybody knows everything that goes on & what they don't know, they make up.
At least morons & rednecks will help you out if you're in a bind. Bigots, racists & Hollywood-type freaks aren't as quick to lend a helping hand.
I'll take morons & rednecks anyday. Could be because I'm just a moronic redneck my own silly self.
BAHAHAHAHAHA
Hey Rose you know what you will look like when your 80 years old? I would say probably a very sexy looking old lady! silly goose
WOOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!
Today, I get to be Queen of Clay ... in 40 years (or so), I get to be SEXY!!
Man, it just don't get no better 'nat.
I think when I'm 80, I'll wander up & down the streets of My Kingdom asking people for a dollar. Why? Because honestly, who wouldn't give a sexy little old lady a dollar?
I'll be RICH!!
i'll give you a dollar!
Yes, it is about time! Another blog! Check it out! Maybe this one will stay!
http://gogodud.blogspot.com/
with words like "thonk" i doubt it
Ya know, if everybody who left a comment here would send me a dollar, I could be rich long before I'm 80. Y'all feel free to throw those dollars my way. C'mon, it's just a buck. teeheehee
Good luck with that new blog.
Why the Good Year Blemp in Clay Co?
Maybe MP needs more cheeze doodles?
I hear that they do not have family portraits in WV because, when the Photographer told the family to say cheese they would get in line instead of a group.
Yea in West Virginia you have to nail screen wire over you kids butts so the rats won't eat them alive after eating all that welfare cheese they tell me.
LOL Uranus. LOL
That's so ... juvenile ... yet never fails to make me laugh.
LOL
if you expect to get where you're going don't stay in the same place too long.
What does the Enterprise and toilet paper have in common?
They are both circling uranus.....
Uranus-Astron. 7th major plantet from the sun.
sir henry60 were you ever in prison. uranus gets penetrated there if you're not careful. and the klingons are tenacious.
Could they be traped in a worm hole?
LOL
HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!
Whether you're a Klingon or just ... in touch with Uranus ...
HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!

You won't have many comments left if you have to sign your name. Let people be anonymous if you want to talk about sheriff buford.
A new blog owned by someone whose name is "Anonymous" yet "Anonymous" doesn't allow anonymous comments.
LOL THAT'S PRICELESS!!
Classic Clay County stupidity. I mean mentality.
What did every body do, get kicked off the blog?
Someone finally made a comment over on the great compromiser blog.
Posts are open for all now on the new blog. Just an oversight on my part while setting the blog up.
DOES EVERYBODY KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY WEST VIRGINIA!!!
THE BIG 143
