I've always been a DXer. I have all the entities confirmed along with many deleted countries. I think my total is around 345 confirmed. Ten meters is certainly fun when it's open. It doesn't take much to talk around the world on ten. I once worked 75 countries during a CQWW contest from my car using an 8 foot whip and 90 watts. As for the chit chat, I like to talk on 2/440 with people that I personally know. I also like talking with the Europeans. I have to agree with some of the "rag chewing prostate conversations" you mention.
Great on you having the Extra. You might look at some of the digital modes if you haven't already. They can be rather fascinating. PSK, Olivia, MFSK, etc.
