Agreed! I am a chile-head of almost 32 who has never been overseas.
(Although I have ventured up to the Great White North; hi Doug, next time
we're knocking on your door.) I would think the travel aspect of the equation
might be more dependent upon means and opportunity. I've personally never
really been one to dream of travel; I enjoy being something of a homebody. I
tend to believe myself a fairly boring person. I do love fun, but tend to
obtain it from somewhat mild sources. (Although, unlike John above, I do like
rides such as roller coasters, etc.) Like John, I enjoy the steady job,
family, & beer (as long as it's German and dark). But when it comes to food, I
stray from the mild side of life. Although, admittedly, I am a C-H of
moderation. Maybe it's just you Hab. munching, Dave's Insanity guzzling C-H's
out there that are the wild bunch???
