This is so weird:  Bruce Appelbaum and I were just discussing the notion
that the Evil Empire of Disney is the most sexless place I can think of
visiting on a vacation.  The main reason for this being that people who
are busy and happy in the bedroom wouldn't be interested in...SHOPPING.

Chris, who would much prefer that trip to Nevis, to Nepal, to Nova
Scotia, or to New Mexico
