No, I was just using this as an excuse to say what people "over there" 
say, in an attempt at humor (which I find myself now explaining).  You 
may note the smiley on my message, trying to indicate that I was 
joking... Sigh.

And yes, I know most of the best deals are in my back yard.  I've gotten 
plenty of intersting things within a couple hundred miles drive of 
home, and most within 5 miles of home...
