Describe your ultimate getaway home.

I imagine mine as a massive treehouse, built up high in the redwood forests of Northern California. Waking up to sunlight blazing through the massive windows, seeing nothing but treetops. I don't know how we'd get it up there, but you best believe there'd be a 4-slot red Neo cab up there. Have to go with some kind of solar energy system I imagine.

If anyone's ever seen the Merry Christmas Corona commercial with one little house, one palm tree on an island. The tree lights up with christmas lights and Oh Christmas Tree is whistled. That's where I'd be.

this is the actual home im living in.

Oh yeah, I've seen that place. Right around the corner from Mesa Golfland.

BTW, be advised. My store's going to throw a Halo 2 tourney Sunday after T-Giving.
Massive prizes in store. Details forthcoming.

Getaway... That's a toughie. I could think of multiple. With me its all about a nice place in a great area.

I guess, off the top of my head, I'd like a decent house in the hills above Avalon (Catalina). I was debating about Nantucket, but after getting nailed by mosquitos on my last visit I confirmed my preference for the West Coast's own relaxation island.

Other potential getaway spots:Capri, somewhere on the Avanti Coast (I heard Gore Vidal's place is now up for sale ), Beacon Hill, Boston, a really posh condo in old town Montreal, San Fran or Manhattan. Ditto if its a really nice pad in the heart of London or Tokyo. Old Quebec City, Nantucket (just not in mosquito season). I find being in a really lively downtown to be as relaxing as the beach!

I disqualified the immediate LA area (well, mainland) because I want to live there permanently as opposed to a getaway.

Kind of like Disney's Haunted Mansion without the tourists and more bookshelves.

In DisneyLand or DisneyWorld?

Nothing beats a beachhouse...

I haven't been to Disneyworld, so Disneyland version I guess. Although that type of house would almost certainly be located a lot closer to Florida than California. And I want lots of ghosts and candleabras and shit. House should be located in or adjacent to a swamp or bayou or something.

You sound as though you want a mansion close to or on the Mississippi Gulf-- complete with Moss and tall oak trees. Which is odd, because I never pictured you as a fan of spooks or spectres.

Sometimes, I just want some quiet time.

I'd like to be right above your tree house, shitting on the roof.

an anonymous South Pacific archipelago that's chock full of mountainous and jungle terrain mostly uncultivated... four C-5 Galaxy Transports air drop in "death row" inmates on this island who must find weapons caches and go head to head with "Mercenaries In Training" and other Ultimate Sportsmen and a private war is waged between the two clans using everything from rocks and sling shots to modern weaponry. The trials go on for a week, then the battles are called off and everyone heads to "THE BIG DICK" A towering palace with swimming pools and anything a man could want... horizontal refreshments etc.

...people tally up their scores and see what their percentile for survival is before heading out. Then after some R&R, UH-1 Hueys fly in and pick up elements of both teams and fan them out again. This goes on for 90 days. At the end if you're not dead, then you're indoctrinated into an extreme fighting force of mercs used by the DOD to conduct Black Ops no one will ever know about. You will be hailed as WARRIORS and be taken care of as long as you keep business good for the brass that needs shit jobs done well. I guess you could call this get-away Battle Royale meets No Escape with a chaser of Hard Target. Or I could just head up stairs and get my dick sucked, but after awhile it's been there done that. I've got TCS maneuvers coming up soon in a similar enviroment {just minus the convicts, but live fire happens on the last two nights} with a reunion of men's men. I'll post the pics when the event is over.

...anyhow that be my dream get-away providing I didn't get killed, but the whole point is not to be killed.

MERCENARY X99

Victorian House in Savannah.

A last-floor flat located somewere in a small town around Rome countryside.

Arnie's house in 'Commando' complete with well concealed shed full of weapons.
