Re: Where ya from; Where ya been; Where ya at?
I have not made it very far after an early good start.
Born in the Mule Capital. Raised in the Mound City inner burbs with brief preK interlude just outside The Hub. Off to school in Chambana, dropped out, moved to the Athens of the South. Spent a few months at The End of the Road, Alaska and in St Johns on The Rock. River City ever since.
No wonder i like traveling so much.

Re: Where ya from; Where ya been; Where ya at?
I like Austin, and the quality of life stuff is pretty great (super low unemployment, economically thriving, lots of natural amenities, lower cost of living than east or west coast, wealthy city equals good schools and low crime, reputation as a "fun" destination due to music, restaurants, bars). I wouldn't go so far as to say it's the best place to live in the country, because (traffic, increasing cost of living, brutally hot summers, economic segregation, looming water crisis).CardsofSTL wrote:heyzeus wrote:Born in Creve Coeur, MO.CardsofSTL wrote:38th according to this unbiased sourceTim wrote:South Arkansas
