I would never live in a town named after a cigarette brand.
I think you need to learn spelling. :hug:

I think people in Marlboro(ugh) need to learn spelling.  I drove my roommate's mother's car through there, and noticed some definite confusion in the signage...   :hmm:

Agreed.  I'd only live in one named after two!

No confusion. The post office considers both version to be legitimate. :)

So what's going to happen when they privatize the mail?   :hmm:  Do you think Altria/Philip Morris will be able make a bid for the official spelling?

Yeah, the town definitely isn't sure how to spell its own name.  Strange, I know.

How did the Duke spell it?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

The use of both is an editorial comment.

Welcome to Marlboro. Ugh.

Anyway, the reality is that the best towns to raise kids in Mass. are, have been for quite some time, and will be for the forseeable future, one of the following:  Concord, Dover, Natick, Needham, Sherborn, Sudbury, Wellesley, Weston, Wayland.

Newton?  Never been there but it seems like a lot of overachieving Jews are nurtured there.
