Weekend Discussion Thread: MSTie Vacations

Brandon asks:

Tired of the daily grind? Looking for a change of scenery? Hassled by creditors? How about a rejuvenating trip to your favorite MSTie vacation spot?

Example:
The dog’s meat; have you seen it? NOW YOU CAN on jolly old Seagull Island!

Where would you go on your MSTie vacation?

I think I’d pick scenic Trollenberg. I’d get an eye-full!

What’s your pick?

    Remember, you can visit with Torgo, but don’t bring your American Express!

    Then you can go to Japan and see Gamera dancing go-go!

    My vacation would be a fantasy: I would borrow Commander Cody’s jetpack and fly myself to the Power Station. After vanquishing the Dark One, I would hang out with Mamie and dance the Calypso. After taking in some Sidehacking, I’d travel to the ends of the earth so see if Thong knows if the fish is ready.

    Well, you get the idea. I’d probably end my adventure with an Egg Cream (no worms) and roll around in money with a hot spy babe.

    Jay:
    Circle Pines, Minnesota –

    I would go to Circle Pines and take a Selfie in front of the giant statue of Mary Jo Pehl.Rumor is that the Circle Pines Cafe whips up a tasty Hot Dish, too.

    Not everyone will get the Circle Pines reference, but the right people will get it (heard that somewhere before…). Hi, Mary Jo!

    We’ve taken MSTie vacations. Leaving from Maryland we went to both Conventio-Cons in Minneapolis in 1994 and 1996 and we returned to Minneapolis in 2008 for a few days wrapping up the last night with the Cinematic Titanic show there at the Old State Theater. We’ve been to Minnesota three times directly related to MST3K activities, otherwise, we probably never would have gone there at all.

    technically its a Police Box.
    also if i had a Police Box, would stay for a few years to record (or get copies) of each episode of some show about time traveling doctor and his friends (so none will be lost forever).

    It’s the space age vacation…today! That’s what you’ll get if you take a trip with SPACOM travel.

    You’ll start off on new, modern Earth, with curly-whirly phone antennae, short ties and the Dodgers, back in Brooklyn where they belong. Then, you’ll travel to the new, modern USAF space station (or Frisbee). You’ll see a brave new world where men fearlessly explore the cosmos, ferret out treacherous Commie spies, and don’t walk on the walls. Meanwhile, women know their place: writhing on spacecraft couches, wearing tight T-shirts and shorts.

    Then, you’ll board the new, modern lunar landing craft (or batteries) and travel to the moon. There, you’ll be marooned for months, but you’ll receive a complimentary promotion and a new, attractive co-pilot you’ll be ordered to marry.

    Book your vacation now. Skullcaps not included.

    (Seriously, Vermont from “Time Chasers” does look good.)

  18. I’d vacation at beautiful scenic YUCCA FLATS! Come to feel the thrill of feeding soda pop to pigs, stay for the marvelous beast and his amazing vocabulary! GHAAAAA! But beware of the cannibalistic rabbits. They are cute but not above eating you while splayed out on the ground pretending to be unconscious.

    Beaver Falls, Japan, is always lovely. And the science centers, overcrowded cemeteries and abandoned buildings are great.

    If I was still single a trip to the 13th moon of Jupiter to hang out with the Fire Maidens would be my choice destination. Maybe now me and my wife could visit the small town where Teenagers from Outer Space is set. Everyone seems so nice there. And I understand there’s a room for rent. And if we get bored there’s always Tor-Cha!

    I think Bloodlust Isle. Everyone is so friendly and I could get into shape as exercise is the thing… that is as pleasant as it is to imagine a relaxing vacation, chatting warmly with ‘cigarette hag’ on Seagull Island.

    I’m definitely with #2:

    Loran Alan Davis:
    I would pick Valley Lodge – “…where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the child brides are above average.”

    Definitely an off-the-beaten-path venue for quiet relaxation. As far as amenities, Torgo does a great facial massage. (Though did I hear he’s been replaced–Torgo 2.0?)

    And the live entertainment is definitely not to be missed!

    You’ll have to forgive Mr. Johnson, here. He once thought “TOR-CHA” meant him dancing the cha-cha!

    Terrestial: Catalina Island, where clean American youth pump clean American dollars into a clean economy. That and the great parties with plenty of coo coo chicks to pick from. And if Charlie steals my girl, you just do what the Romans do when in Rome…or Athens.
    Space: I would pick six months with Colonel Bright Eyes! And I’d get a promotion. Not because I earn it, just because I’m a guy!

    El Paso. As I recall, “Valley Lodge” was the home of a local judge who was a friend of Hal Warren’s.

    We could all go to Rommel’s cabin, drink beer, do some sidehacking and tell jokes. “That was a number 5!” If we got bored, we could always take a tour of the slag heap where he fought his historic battle with J.C.

    I’m surprised that nobody else has mentioned scenic Sandia Crest. And before your hike up the mountain (caution – takes much longer at night!), you can have some stew, consisting of corn, chicken, green peppers, chili… sigh… onions…
