Travel Issue: "Vacations You Can Take Without Leaving Your Computer"

By Ben Gallagher '11

Maybe you're like me and are too broke or lazy to go on a real trip, but despair not! You don't have to leave your house (or even your room) to take an awesome vacation; all you need is a personal computer. On the Internet you can travel daily to Jenna Jameson and Ron Jeremy's penthouse, while the forests in World of Warcraft make for great camping. You can download a neat screensaver with a palm tree that rivals the swankiest tropical resort. You can even send your friends on vacation with a nifty Facebook application.

Real vacations waste time and money, and, most importantly involve getting off my fat ass. When the world is at your fingertips, there's no need to burn any extra calories by expanding your horizons, or walking. So grab a jar of Vaseline, pour yourself a glass of Mountain Dew, and toast Al Gore, the inventor of your favorite vacation destination.
