Today, we were nowhere.

So we're in a hotel in Nebraska, a Comfort Inn that gives us free wireless access. Score.

We stopped at a Subway for food in Ogallala, Nebraska. It was attached to a gas station the way that many Subways out on the highway are, and above the gas station store was a sign that said:

"You are nowhere." How true.

Below that was a sign that said,

"EAT DOGS!!" and had a creepy picture of a cartoon dog. Yes, I took a picture. I am hoping that they mean hotdogs. But you never know with the middle of this country.

Speaking of which, Kansas = SUCK. Seriously. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. That state is a piece of shit. Ranking below it are only North Dakota and Iowa. Actually, maybe Iowa is better. And since I only have 8 states yet to visit, being Wyoming, Utah (both of which we will hit tomorrow), Nevada, New Mexico, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Maine, you know you can trust me. Since those states are all better than Kansas, or so I've heard.

Man. Fuck Kansas.

We were pleasantly surprised by Nebraska. It has little hills and pleasant little glens. And the Platte river.

Although we did stop at the ONLY gas station for HOURS on US-83, a tiny pit stop that had ancient pumps and more diesel pumps than regular. Also, much farm equiptment.

Well, that's all for now.

I hear Maine is cool. Stephen King likes it, at least. New Mexico is nice, though Alburquerqe isn't so nice. It has a cool name though. Vermont is supposed to be pretty and I liked Providence, RI a lot. Hm... Nevada is a lot of desert, but it's got legalized prostitution, so that's cool. Mmm... Peter vouches for Wyoming, and Utah has awesome mountains, plus the salt lake is damn impressive. That might just make Kansas the worst ever. Although Iowa is pretty lame.
