Lived a short time in Illinois, and a short time in Alabama. Moved around a little bit when I was a teen. Hated them both. Too many people, too much traffic.
Now living in South Carolina where I've been most of my life and I like it here. Sure it has it's problems, but it's home. My husband wouldn't mind moving out of the area we live in though. I like it, but then again, I'm not the one driving. The traffic in our area is pretty awful, and I'm fairly certain retarded chimps programmed the traffic lights. But other than that, really love this place and wouldn't trade it for anything.
Would be awesome to see mammoths roaming around! I dunno about dinosaurs. I guess they could only do the small ones... not sure if it'd even be possible to do one of the bigger species *shrug* It would be interesting though.
OUCH that poor cow. Wonder if they sent it to be slaughtered or are taking care of it and sparing it? Still.. that photo of it.. if it's real... just.. ouch.
Dave R.... have you ever been to Italy? Having foreign cuisane is not hurting them at all. You know what we saw when we went to Italy? Almost empty Italian restraunts w/ a few Italians in them (usually not even eating but just hanging out) and McDonalds so crowded the lines were to the street. This wasn't just in 1 place we went to, but several. We went to 1 Italian place our 2 weeks there and we were looked at as if we were insane for even walking in to the place... and fyi.. an ASIAN guy cooked our food.
Anyway, it makes more sense that they'd be trying to get foreign restraunts to buy their products within Italy as other commentors mentioned as what was really happening. THAT I could understand. It'd help them regulate what was being used so nothing ify found its way on to someones plate.
So far, my husband and I are doing fine. He works in a VA hospital here so his job is pretty secure. My brother and his family aren't doing so well though. He hasn't been able to find a job in a long time. He's done temp stuff, but nothing permanent. His last temp job, they let him go a week before Christmas. It's scary what's happening right now. Every single day, you hear about some other business cutting thousands of jobs. I really hope things getting better soon.
Some of those other ones are really impressive as well. I particularly like the flora ones.
Also love the baby elephant :D
