Sell where you live

[USF Sam]

Never driven in LA, but I can tell you that Atlanta kicks the crap out of anywhere else I've driven: DC, Dallas, Miami, Orlando during Mouse House season... anywhere.

There are days when I get in the car, turn on the radio, listen for 4 mins, turn the car off, walk back inside my office and surf the Net for 2 hours. Beats spending those 2 hours on the Connector.

Not living there right at this very moment, but will be again soon:

- Historic area; Windsor Castle and where the Magna Carta was signed all within walking distance.
- My uni; is alright I suppose. Was built in the 1800's by a snake oil salesman. I'm there being a grade A bad ass, tearing it up.
- Heathrow; maybe not such a good thing... Busiest airport in the world.
- Trains; London in 30 minutes which is good. Reading in 45, but Reading's shit and nobody should go there.
- There's Deer all around, Wild Boar apparently somewhere, and parakeets living wild (although government wants them culled because they're dangerous. No shit.)

:homo:This. Back in 1991, I lived 6 miles from my work in Duluth Ga. Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road to I-85 to Boggs Road. I started work at 7 am. It often took 30 minutes to make the 6-mile drive. That was 20 years ago! I stand by my comparison to LA or anywhere else in the country. North, south, east or west - makes no difference which side of the city you live on - Atlanta traffic sucks. I fucking dread my annual trip back there. I spent my last 11 Ga. years in the Macon area. No comparison to Atlanta. I remember my first morning commute in Macon. Had to be there at 8 AM. Went to breakfast and asked the waitress how was Macon traffic during morning rush. She gushed "Oh! It's soooo AWFUL!". So I paid the check and left at 7:20, a little concerned about being late the first day. Arkwright Road to I-75 to College Street right in downtown. 7 miles and 10 minutes later I was in my parking space having a good chuckle.

Hell, how about South Cobb drive in Marietta? I worked at Lockheed in 1987 and it was bumper to bumper even then. Never seen urban sprawl anywhere like metro Atlanta. And today? Ho-leee-shit! I don't envy you at all Sam.

We fell in love with our back yard

 

[Darrell]

Oh! That's rright for $70-$115 you can have me touch 90% of your body!

Good lord for that I'll get a whore. She will rub my back, listen to me cry, or talk dirty to me. Or any combination of those.

Ooo duckies, I <3 duckies



We need a OTzOhio party!



I want those on the down low!

what would it take for a 100% body massage? or is the 90% negotiable on what parts are involved? :ninja

HIGH WYCOMBE

We have ducks and swans. The swans are usually a funny looking colour and bite people.

A theatre (that I performed at twice )

A law court (civil cases only. Criminal cases go to a better court )

Grammar Schools for the elite (or people who can pay their way in) and a very very expensive Private Girls School. My friends and I used to really take the piss out of the Private School Girls cos they have to wear an AWFUL school uniform when they leave school grounds.

Hellfire Caves and apparently there are ghosties there.

Sex Clubs and lots of dogging hot spots.

Chair Museum. I know you are all jealous of that. There are other things at the Chair Museum too. Last time I went I saw a statue and a picture of a Badger.

Birth Place of the Beatles and Lady Gaga.

Mentioned in the Domesday Book for having 6 mills. Those mills no longer exist as we started to make chairs. More money in chairs.

A mausoleum to someone. Zorak and I can't remember. Why don't you tourist people come and visit and find out for us?

Lots of hills and stuff. There's a river that is very dirty looking. But occasionally you may catch a glimpse of a fish... or maybe it's a corpse at the bottom of the river. Who knows.

We are twinned with Kelkheim in Germany.

Jamie Oliver once did an advert in the town centre. When the advert aired, High Wycombe was then edited out and replaced with somewhere better.

There is a hospital in the town centre that no longer treats anyone. I'm not sure why they still call it a hospital and people go there as they just get sent to a different hospital.

Lots of roads out of High Wycombe. But to stop a mass exodus out of the town, numbers of people let out is closely regulated. HELP ME ESCAPE.
