Travels with Todd - Made in America by LuskT

In a concerted effort to avoid the hell that is LAX when going to southern California, I try instead to fly in and out of Orange County, whose airport is named after what iconic actor? His last screen role came in 1976's The Shootist.

A trip in December 2013 took me to Spokane, Washington - home of what university whose men's basketball team has made every NCAA tournament since 1999?

Due to the heavy concentration of steel manufacturing, I've spent quite a bit of time in Gary, Indiana (condolences accepted). What 1957 musical identifies this as the hometown (by song, of course) of one of its main characters?

My work in the refining and petrochemical industries sends me frequently to Texas and Louisiana. Were I to drive between the two along I-10, what river would I be crossing at the state line? (edited at 1:54 pm, June 15, 2016 (EDT))

Speaking of oil, my visits to refineries often include drives past large piles of what element, whose presence in the crude oil at over 0.5 percent qualifies it as a sour crude?

On a visit to western New York, I drove past NBT Bank Stadium, home of the Syracuse Chiefs - the AAA affiliate of which National League team?

Obviously I'm most familiar with my home airport, CVG - the base of operations for Southern Air, who provides cargo services for what international shipping and logistics company? It began the late 1960's/early 1970's as a courier service to ferry documents between Oakland and Los Angeles.

St. Paul, Minnesota, where I frequently visited 3M, has the largest US population of what southeast Asian ethnic group? You could answer in their native script, but they're somewhat famous for not having one.

Along a fairly empty stretch of Interstate 64 lies the town of Corydon - population 3,122 (saaaa-lute!) This little town served as the capital of what state, until it was changed in 1825?

Multiple trips to southern California introduced me to the Asian-Mexican fusion known as the Korean taco. These are commonly filled with grilled, marinated beef known by what Korean name? In Hangul, it literally means "fire meat."

While my West Coast trips include travel over the part of the country known as the "fly-over states," which US state actually has the most "fly-over" traffic? "Fly-over" means that the aircraft neither takes off nor lands in that state but does pass through its airspace.

Despite working in the southern US for over 15 years, I've never done a project in Mississippi. How many distinct ways can you arrange the letters in the word MISSISSIPPI? Hint: the answer is a ZIP code that's assigned to the state of Florida.
