I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
Outside of Custer, SD at the moment. Love this town; friendly folks.
Had a chat with a local store owner the other day while the wife was shopping for t-shirts. The guy's been working 10-12 hour days 7 days a week since 4/1 and looking forward to some time off as soon as the tourist season dies down a bit. Still pleasant and easy-going. Went into the grocery the other day (wife caught a bad cold) looking for some OTC remedies. In the aisle, right by said remedies, one of the store clerks was yakking on her cell phone. About the time I was starting to get city boi pissed, she struck up a conversation with the wife and told her exactly what she needed. (It worked, too!) People are so nice here! Town has a population of about 1800, and businesses are already starting to close for the winter. They DO make all their money in about 4-5 months - at any given time, about 10% of the businesses appear to be for sale, but the "born here" locals seem to know how to make it work.
I asked the store owner what he'd do with the time off and he said "hopefully draw a deer tag and go hunting." "I pay state, county and local taxes and haven't had one in five years." Never brought politics into the discussion. BONUS POINTS! Damn, I'd love to retire here -- it's so different from what I know.
San Francisco. Best place in the world.
Montreal, Quebec. Extremely cool place. Ottawa and Quebec City are a real close second.
I actually like the Tomato (Sac)
Downtown Oaktown (Oakland, CA)
Denver. (Thanks, Dave and Rob-cool place)
NYC. Doesn't compare to anywhere else except SF.
Chicago. Best food on the planet.
Was there in 1974 but just passing through. I remember the woman at the register of a fairly nice French restaurant we ate in absolutely doing flips we had only travelers checks to pay the bill with. Some of the other workers in the place finally calmed her down.Originally Posted by nx6d
Been wanting to go back for years, and would have gone this month had I been feeling a bit better.

In no particular order. All were/are nice to be in. Nice people, nice places and usually a lot of fun.

All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
Those seem like the strangest of choices.

Please don't confuse my personality with my attitude. My personality is obviously me, But my attitude depends largely upon you.
As a long-distance truck driver, I've been damned near everywhere in the U.S. I just made a list of the biggest sh*tholes I could come up with off the top of my head.

Hello.
+1000 internets.
It is pretty bad when the only nice thing you can find about a place is truckstop.
Houston has the Pilot downtown, I would prefer to stay at the terminal.
Gary has plenty of truckstops, they all suck.
Ontario California, a shithole if there ever was one.
thank god I can lay my thoughts of most politically correct to rest.
