Long Time
Wow, just noticed how long it had been since my last post. In my defense, I was offline for the better part of the last five days because my modem was fried by a nearby lightning strike. I was relieved it was just the modem and not my computer and especially since my 'puter and several peripherals are on the same circuit.
Wussy AT&T modem, anyway.
Anyway...it's not as though I really do much with this pathetic excuse for a blog nor that I have loads of visitors to keep entertained. It's always only been a "hobby", something to do to amuse myself. It's really just an ersatz means of being creative, typing out some stupid words or embedding a video and pressing "Send" and having it post and then looking at it and saying to myself "Wow, I created something."
I'm sure it's something a trained ape could do.
I don't get all that many unique visitors and the last time I checked, this blog was ranked something like 12,456,738th in the world, so....
All that said, if anyone has been disappointed by my lack of posts, I promise I'll try to do better. For those of you who have been disappointed by a lack of any creative content....well, keep checking in because I might accidentally post something worth reading.
Not that I ever have, but there's always hope, huh?

Off the Map
While trying to amend the URL of the post below (to take out the Facebook appendage reference in the link) I stumbled across the Atlas Obscura 404 page: (the first part of it is a screen shot, but the "here" link will work)
There aren't even monsters here. If you want monsters, check here.

The McFarthest Spot
What's so special about this place in S. Dakota?
According to Atlas Obscura, it is the McFarthest Spot -the farthest you can be in the continental US from a McDonald's location.
According to Atlas Obscura, it is the McFarthest Spot -the farthest you can be in the continental US from a McDonald's location.
From the website:
Geographically speaking, in the lower 48 United States it is impossible to get farther away from a McDonald's restaurant than this location in South Dakota. From the McFarthest Spot it would take 145 miles driving (only 120 miles as the crow flies) before a visitor could devour their next two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun.
