Things to See Wish List: Recession Style

I’ve been really lucky over the course of my life, having had the opportunity to visit many interesting places and attend “once-in-a-lifetime” type events.  I was pondering my list of places and things I still would like to see, but given the economy have decided to edit it down to a more realistic roster of places heretofore unbesmirched by the presence of me, based on cost and geography.

  1. Gettysburg Battlefield Site, PA
  2. US Constitution Center, Philadelphia PA
  3. San Francisco, CA (As long as I can scam free housing from a friend - you know who you are.)
  4. Hiking in Goblin Valley, UT
  5. Camping in the Uintas, UT
  6. Snowboarding at UT resorts I haven’t been yet (Snowbasin, Solitude, Brian Head)

Any other suggestions?

Happy TARDIS day!

Today is the 45th Anniversary of the first broadcast of Doctor Who!

For a great history lesson on the origins of the show, check out the BBC Archives.

Why you can't travel back in time and kill Hitler

A nice summary of pop-culture attempts at time travel to kill Hitler, and why each one failed.  You’d think that with all of this evidence, the machines would stop sending Terminators back in time to kill John Connor, but I guess they’ll never learn.
