- I'd recommend coming back via Sedona. It's not that much out of
- the way. Go Flagstaff-Sedona-Phoenix. It's well signposted. The
- view is breathtaking, I found it more memorable then the Canyon which
- is saying something. Sedona is a real touristy town with ripoff prices
- but it's worth seeing. It's also worth visiting the church in Sedona.
-
- Other than that I don't think there's much worth seeing.

- On being a football fan: "I am aware of the downside to this wonderful
- facility that men have: they become repressed, they fail in their
- relationships with women,their conversation is trivial and boorish, they
- find themselves unable to express their emotional needs, they cannot relate
- to their children, and die lonely and miserable. But you know, what the hell?"
