Away
Hi. I'm sorry but I'm unable to come to the blog right now. I took a vacation. Just to make things interesting, I'll throw out a coulple of clues as to where I am. If you come up with the answer, I'll let you in on that mix I offered up a few weeks ago. Here you go:
- far-flung financial institutions
- decoy
- toyota
There you have it. I'll be off doing whatever it is I'm expected to do wherever I am. And I'll get back to you on the winner.
Good luck.
Chris
P.S. Rest in peace Ronnie James Dio. Raise the devil horns to half-mast.

Posted by: David at May 17, 2010 8:00 AMI'm thinking that you are off looking for a new car! If so, good luck!
Posted by: Maribeth at May 17, 2010 8:08 AMI was thinking Japan as well.
Posted by: Debra at May 17, 2010 8:11 AMOh no, Dio died? Queuing up "Holy Diver" in his honor.

Posted by: jodifur at May 17, 2010 8:31 AMwell i googled all three words and decided that u went to memphis tn....there were bad cops there that hid coccaine in a decoy toyota and sold it then took the money and put it in a far flung finantial institution....just saying....
Posted by: becky at May 17, 2010 8:38 AMYou are in the Outer Banks. Should I be more specific? Are you in Duck? Or in Corolla? Hope it's not raining there like it is here in DC.
Posted by: Leslie at May 17, 2010 8:44 AMThe people above me seem to think you're in the Outerbanks. I think you're at home having a staycation looking at minivans on your laptop.

Posted by: Brad at May 17, 2010 9:26 AMHave a great time wherever you are.
Posted by: Ann Elizabeth Adams at May 17, 2010 9:41 AMWhat?? They don't have haikus where you are? I need my Monday haiku fix dammit.
Let's play a new game.
Where is Waldo?...I mean Chris.
Your hints confuse me.
Fire Island. Or maybe Japan. Or Switzerland.
Nope. I'm sticking with Fire Island.

Posted by: kalisa at May 17, 2010 11:34 AMOuter Banks, Duck, Corolla!!
Posted by: Sue R at May 17, 2010 11:39 AMI hope its fun where-ever you are!!!
My guess: Outer Banks of NC...most specifically DUCK?
Posted by: Amy at May 17, 2010 12:01 PMWell, I was going to use just the first clue and go with the Caymans, but the Outer Banks answers seem to make more sense. Enjoy!
Posted by: Brooke at May 17, 2010 12:09 PMWho knows?
I just hope it is fun and not work related.
I was thinking NYC.....maybe because of the stock exchange being there.
Posted by: debb at May 17, 2010 12:20 PMOuter Banks, Duck, North Corolla, I mean, Carolina
Posted by: zanie at May 17, 2010 12:48 PMI'm going with Duck, NC too! Have fun! I love it there!
Posted by: Rose @Dozenroses13 at May 17, 2010 1:15 PMJapan ? France ? Caiman Islands ?
Where ? Why ? What for ? Until when ? With who ?
Mystère et boule de gomme...
Somewhere off Currituck Sound....around Corolla or Duck, NC. Sounds nice - enjoy!!
Posted by: Jen at May 17, 2010 3:06 PMSan Francisco!
Posted by: Wendy at May 17, 2010 5:10 PMI have to go with Outer Banks myself. And if you're there, I'm jealous.
However, you said decoy. And Toyota. And Toyota has many plants in the United States. So I don't know.
Just send me the damn mix, I'm tired and I am ass-deep in schoolwork for my masters!
Posted by: Stephanie at May 17, 2010 9:31 PMIf you're in Ottawa (where we have banking institutions, Toyota dealerships and where the movie "Decoys" was filmed) and you don't tell me I'll have a sad.
Enjoy your vacation!
Posted by: LeSombre at May 18, 2010 11:00 AMThis guy has to go with North Carolina as well. Have a great & safe vacation. You've earned it.
Cheers,
JJ
Hope your having a great beach? vacation!! Wherever you are hope it is fun and relaxing.
Posted by: Adi at May 18, 2010 11:40 PMMy husband got all mad at me yesterday because I told him that "some guy named Dio died... wasn't he in a band?" ... apparently he feels that I need to get out more.
I was going to guess japan as far as your trip - but I think that If I were going to japan, I wouldn't be able to keep it quiet till the day I left. SO I'm thinking it something not quite as exciting as an overseas trip. But then again, I could be wrong.
