Toms River, New Jersey
Good: Seaside Heights and the beach are about ten minutes away. Six Flags: Great Adventure is about 30 minutes away. Giants Stadium, Newark Airport, and many other things are just a couple hours away. Bad: If you've been living here your whole life like me, you're already sick of everything. Way too much overpopulation, soon there will be no land left to develop on. Traffic sucks more and more as more and more people move in. Nothing 'big' ever happens around here. The water is cancerous. Idiots, and lots of them. |

As for the bridges in Virginia Beach, I have to remind Arnold of the several hours we spent in standstill traffic caused by one small accident. I agree, the bridges are awesome, the traffic they create is not.
Anywho, I'm from Denver, Colorado, the greatest city on earth. It's one of the most diverse climates in the country, is home to the greatest football legend in history, as well as the most awesome mountain range in the world. The weather here happens to be both the biggest positive and negative. If you don't like the weather, literally wait five minutes and it will change. Thursday saw a high of 0 degrees or some damn thing, whereas Friday brought mid fifties temperatures and lots of sun. This is the only city I know of where we can literally get two feet of snow on Monday and experience spring like conditions by Tuesday. |

The other 'pitt' in Pennsylvania, Pittsfield.
Township composed of small towns, next to a larger town noone's heard of, Youngsville, in a county noone cares about, Warren county. Good: Quiet. Bad: Only things to do are 30 minutes away, not much of anything at that point either, closest Best Buy is an hour away in Erie, Pittsburgh and Buffalo are 2-3 hours away, no form of broadband currently available here that I'm aware of yet. |

Im from wrexham like trunks, not that bad of a place really. Good: Im two minutes away from the town and there are quite a few decent shops like HMV, MVC, GAME and GameStation in town. There is abit to do if your just visiting. Only about an hours drive from the coast and pretty big shopping city/ shopping centres are between half an hour to a two hours drive away. The occasional good band will gig here (e.g. Electric Six played here two years ago and InMe [not that I like them] played here six months ago) and there are also some semi decent rock show thingys every now and again. An alright local football team. Bad: The things there are too do around here, Ive already done, hence lots of boredom. There is a shit load of ****ing idiots (even the "smart" people here are stupid), tons of chavs/scallys/trendys and boy racers. Weather is shit. Generally bad atmospere in some places and lots of "rough" areas and estates.

I'm from the broken, dejected, middle-American earthbound wasteland of Salem, Oregon. Everything here is symbolic: discolored paint peels off the buildings like sunburned skin; weathered steel skeletons from abandoned construction projects rise above the flat roofs of malls and churches like empty prison towers; the trees are always thin from the cold; today's litter dances with last week's in ghostly circles around the streets in the quiet breeze like silent histories; people never wash their hair. It's completely depressing, but I love it because the city I go to school in is worse. I want to leave Oregon, or anyway move to Portland (or failing that the woods or something *really* secluded). I guess Oregon's pretty special, though; it's got its moments. Just how diverse it is is staggering. It's got cities, forests, deserts, pastures, mountains, beaches, small towns, more kinds of people than I'd ever want to be familiar with--it's a strange, strange place. More's going on here than a lot of people imagine.
