Well, that might help their kids, but it's too late for them, unless they develop some kind of somatic cell therapy for stupidity.

A Touron is a Tourist who behaves as a Moron. Or is it a Moron who goes out as a Tourist? *shrug*

Interesting quote from that page:

Don’t be over confident. GPS receivers, cell phones, and your own intelligence can be your worst enemies.


So fixing the stupidity thing might not be a cure-all...

Actually, most of them are. My dad is the exception. My grandma voted for CLinton's last attempt because he was cute. SHe's most the way around the bend anyways.

you can be a moron without being a tourist, but its hard to be a tourist without being a moron. that said, are we not tourists when we drive or fly a thousand miles to go backpacking in an area that ppl live in every day. we get a little more intimate with the environment than the tools you see waddling around places like gatlinburg or keystone, but WE are still tourists. its just a matter of degree.
