I guess for the sake of this thread it can only count if your feet have touched ground/pavement..all my countries listed I have legitimately been too..

But then as stated before you said you have to leave an airport to count. So if you land in a new place your feet are on the ground even if you never leave the airport. It is a slippery slope.

See I don't agree with that. If you are on a train passing through or by car that counts...flyover doesn't count as you are in airspace.. reason being you have to be somewhere! I would count it!

If the next person wants to add that go for it..I have been to Nova Scotia, Quebec, Ontario, Alberta, British Columbia if it helps! I also may be hitting up New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Saskatechewan and Manitoba in 2010!

Good call!

I will try it...started a new post...let me see if I can close this one in the process.. here is the new thread! http://forums.viachicago.org/topic/42408-how-well-traveled-are-viachicago-members/

It seems like there was some confusion on the previous thread so I am hopeful with this try 2. Instead we will add on to the countries instead of taking away. Please make sure to copy the person above you reply...I have now included a politically correct (257 countries!!) list for refrence at the top then below . I listed the countries I have been in. Add yours in the next reply and do not copy the master list of all the countries......I will close the other thread... 1 Afghanistan 2 Akrotiri 3 Albania 4 Algeria 5 American Samoa 6 Andorra 7 Angola 8 Anguilla 9 Antarctica 10 Antigua

Who can set this up? I am technically challenged!

Hmm next person remove Croatia then! Erase the gaps too please! Croatia is high on my next countries to visit list!

I would love to do this tour! I am very jealous! PS surprised no one has been to Monaco or South Africa yet!

If the next person can close the gaps that would keep things less cumbersome...

Hmmm..I was afraid it would be difficult to execute...should we let it run its course???

Here are the rules...if you have been to any countries still on the list of the person above you remove them in your reply....I have taken out the ones I have been to. There are currently 203 countries in the world (Don't mind the numbers after the countries name) I also added Antartica even though I guess it is not a country but I feel should be on the list. PS..yes I know I am a dork. Also on a side note I have been on the borders with Guatemala, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia (within 10 miles), Jordan but never made it in. Afghanistan (316) Albania (97) Algeria (76) Andorra (94) Angola

Florence, Italy..from my trip last week! Sigh

I enjoy it...It was great when I heard it live when I saw them last year!

It was a surprisingly incredible movie!!

Jukebox of Steel is great live! Nice list!

I think you and I are the only two who mentioned Bjork

Ha...whoops...good thing I don't work for a newspaper! My threat is I guess maybe I can turn some folks onto new artist?!

Cool! I will keep an eye out for it!

Yeah probably true...I met Jay a few times...the other time I met him we had a good talk. Did the setlist change much from Feb? I saw them back in September and the setlist was great. 10 Second News was a highlight!

Awesome! You caught him in the right night! I asked him if I can get a picture with him and he said I don't do pictures! Hope you enjoyed the show! I think the new album sounds great live!

I figured I would dedicate a threat (I mean thread ) to female bands/musicians...who are your top 10? Mine are 1. Bjork 2. Tori Amos 3. Aimee Mann 4. Garrisson Starr 5. Fiona Apple 6. Lily Allen 7. Lisa Loeb (I still have a soft spot for her what can I say) 8. Saharah Hotnights 9. Christina Aguilera (I like her voice...) 10. Carrie Underwood (Same as above)

Wow...sundays setlist is wild! I can't wait to listen to this show when I get home! I know bobfrombob went..need to hear his review!

Nice list Jim..... here would be mine Harborcoat 1,000,000 West of the Fields I Believe Ignoreland Feeling Gravity Pulls Leave How the West Was Won I Remember California Perfect Circle Green Grow the Rushes Low Monty Got a Raw Deal You Be Mine Texarkana Swan Swan H Until the Day is Done Disturbance at the Heron House ------------------------------- Stumble Moral Kiosk Pretty Persuasion Falls to Climbs Good Advices 9-9
