I stayed in Varosha, Cyprus for two weeks before I realized it is uninhabited. Then, I stayed
another month because I had a wide choice of rooms.

Believe it or not, most of the women in Tittybong, Victoria, Australia, have flat chests. That's
what I love about the city because it is so much fun going to Tittybong's Hooters restaurants.

Hell, in the Cayman Islands is so much fun when people get drunk. You hear them shouting, "Go to
Hell" and others answering, "I am in Hell" and there is so much laughter that echoes through the
streets of the nightlife.

Once, I lived for a short time in Batman, Turkey. The city of Batman is a strange place and not
only because of its name. There is a lot of crime in Batman, most of it stealing. So, often in the
newpapers the headlines, when translated into English, read: Police attempt to stop robbin' in
Batman. Also, in Batman, soups are a popular meal. The locals call the meal "a souper" and the cook
a "souper man." So, it is fun to stay there and say things in English that the Turks understand but
don’t know why they are funny; things like, "If I get a job I want to be a souper man in Batman."

In Vulcan, Alberta, Canada, I built a home made entirely from an Erector Set and the house survived
through so much bad weather that I wound up selling it for sixteen times what the original
construction toy set cost me.

I wish I had taken more photos of all the great cities and towns that have given me so many memories
but I didn't because I knew I would not want to share them with people. Now that I have written
about these places, I know I was wrong and I apologize.
