Most trouble spots are not on my places to visit list including Chechnya. It ranks alongside Kashmir region of Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Iran, Yemen and Palestine.

Five minutes of fame showing me being beheaded on the Aljazeera news channel is not my idea of a restful, relaxing holiday.  :o :o :o :o

Besides, it would be too long a walk for a good cold beer.  ::) ::) ::) ;D ;D ;D
