Every now and then I like to screw around with this website just to see if it gives me different results, since it never seems to change... but I guess I gradually have over time in terms of my preferences.  Princesca and I messed around with it a little bit before we relocated, but it really didn't factor into our plans at all.  I guess it might have if we had no family living in any one nucleus, though.

Anyway, here are my top 10 choices as of just now when I took it:

1. Ocala, Florida
2. Gainesville, Florida
3. Biloxi-Gulfport, Mississippi
4. Corpus Christi, Texas
5. Charleston, South Carolina
6. Galveston, Texas
7. Tallahassee, Florida
8. Deland, Florida
9. Savannah, Georgia
10. Hattiesburg, Mississippi

Of the cities listed, I've been to Gainesville, Charleston, Galveston, and Savannah, and thought they were all pretty awesome.

Also, my #11 was Houston, which I've been to a bunch of times and always liked visiting, but don't think I would live there--much too crowded. :yuk:

Fuck that noise. Forced me to feed it info about myself....Why hello Kai who resides in Columbus Ohio...

Then I got:
1) Norfolk, Virginia
2) Honolulu, Hawaii
3) San Diego
4) Orange County
5) Little Rock

Right. A list that has Honolulu, San Diego and Little Rock. That makes sense. :rolleyes:

edit: later in my list it had Oakland and Baltimore. Yeah I don't think so bubs. :rolleyes:

I got bored and distracted before I finished. :Embarrass:
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Oh yeah you can put fake shit in there.  I bet they are still throwing out junk mail addressed to "Calvin Iga" at my old Harvard office. :cool:

Albuquerque is definitely dry, but I don't think it's what most people would consider to be 'desert'... IIRC it's up in the mountains.

Or maybe that's Santa Fe. :hmm:

Either way, I've been to New Mexico and the bit of it in the Rockies doesn't feel like desert.

Edit: Corpus is down at #21.  We've been kinda considering moving there for a while, but are pretty...tied...to San Antonio.  Also I worry that I would get really bored there.
