Landscapes didn't do much for me.... because they essentially shot it in my backyard. I see that terrain daily.

Oh, I certainly like the landscape, it just offers nothing out of the ordinary for me. It's be like you, as an inhabitant of wet ol' England, getting excited over shots of trees in the rain.
However, I will say our sunsets NEVER get old. They are spectacular.

Quote:I was hiking Sabino Canyon in Tuscon last week, and everyone but me & a couple others in the distance were carrying these cute little water bottles...now, MY idea of running through the wilderness is no food, no water, just come as you are. What kind of challenge is it if you're all packed up for a picnic? Plus, he travels fastest who travels lightest.

Maybe you should scale back on the Man vs. Wild marathons....

I suppose we should be glad that you didn't watch an episode of Batman and then decide that if he could glide off tall buildings, you could too.

But I could totally see Chris* walking "up" the side of a building that was lying down.
(*Particularly surprising, since I have not one clue what he looks like)

I saw Mary Poppins, and jumped off the roof of our garage with just an umbrella.
