ERIZENO Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 Originally posted by Pistol I live within 5 minutes of two hospitals. I live within 25 minutes of two bigger hospitals (MLK & USC). I live within an hour of LAX , Ontario, John Wayne (Orange County), and Long Beach airports. I live within 30 minutes of Downtown Los Angeles. (Staples Center, LA Convention Center, Dodger Stadium, Chinatown, Olvera Street, Union Station etc. I live 20 minutes from Disneyland and Knotts Berry Farm. I live about an hour and some change from Magic Mountain or Universal Studios. I live less than a mile from the freeway. Including 5 freeway. I live where I can travel about an hour and some change and be in the desert or a couple of different mountain or beach spots depending on what kind of getaway I want. I live with 2-3 hours from Vegas. And and hour and a half from a few different Indian Casinos. I live within 2 hours from the Mexican border. I live 15 minutes from a strip where there's about 15+ strip joints all for my choosing. I live about a mile and a half from the closest strip joint. Yeah I love it! my times a bit diffrent than that ... but close. southern cali is where its at for a lot of aspects of life. life behind the orange curtain can have its pros and cons ... but i would stay here all my life if possible. my gril is from Mineapolis ... sent me this email ... kinda funny where she went from #1 on the list to #2. We're Stunned! Most Fun U.S. City Is... It's not New York, New Orleans, or even Las Vegas. The city where you'll have the most fun is...Minneapolis. That's the word from game maker Cranium, Inc., which commissioned Bert Sperling, who masterminded the "Best Places to Live" feature for Money magazine, to rank 50 cities for their fun factor. This was determined by the city's number of sports teams, restaurants, dance performances, toy stores, and the amount of the city's budget that is spent on recreation, among other factors. And why did Minneapolis beat out cities known for the classic fun factors of sin and sun? According to Cranium, the goal was to find a city that is an "outrageously fun experience with something for everyone." Minneapolis won because it's the home of Mary Tyler Moore, four professional sports teams, and the best mall in America. Minneapolis has more theaters than Boston, more parks than Denver, more golfers per capita than any other city in America, and with 10,000 lakes in the state. Minnesota, has more coastline than California, Florida, and Hawaii combined. It even has 15 dog parks. Woof! Cranium CEO Richard Tait said, "It's almost a no-brainer" to crown Minneapolis the Most Fun City. Perhaps even more startling than the fact that Minneapolis is No. 1 is that New Orleans is No. 50. Does that mean a trip to the Mall of America is more fun than Mardi Gras? You decide. Here are the top 50 fun cities, ranked from top to bottom: 1.Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota 2.Orange County, California 3.San Jose, California 4.Atlanta, Georgia 5.Chicago, Illinois 6.Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill, North Carolina 7.Washington, DC 8.Oakland, California 9.Salt Lake City-Ogden, Utah 10.Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, Washington 11.Portland-Vancouver, Oregon-Washington 12.San Francisco, California 13.Baltimore, Maryland 14.Milwaukee-Waukesha, Wisconsin 15.Denver, Colorado 16.Detroit, Michigan 17.St. Louis, Missouri 18.San Diego, California 19.Indianapolis, Indiana 20.Cincinnati, Ohio 21.Columbus, Ohio 22.Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 23.Sacramento, California 24.Nashville, Tennessee 25.Las Vegas, Nevada 26.Los Angeles-Long Beach, California 27.Kansas City, Missouri-Kansas 28.Nassau-Suffolk, New York 29.Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill, North Carolina 30.Omaha, Nebraska 31.Norfolk-Virginia Beach-Newport News, Virginia 32.Houston, Texas 33.Cleveland-Lorain-Elyria, Ohio 34.Dallas, Texas 35.Memphis, Tennessee 36.Orlando, Florida 37.Louisville, Kentucky 38.Fort Worth-Arlington, Texas 39.Riverside-San Bernardino, California 40.Greensboro-Winston-Salem-High Point, North Carolina 41.New York, New York 42.Boston, Massachusetts 43.Hartford, Connecticut 44.Austin-San Marcos, Texas 45.Newark, Newark 46.Miami, Florida 47.Bergen-Passaic, Newark 48.Fort Lauderdale, Florida 49.Phoenix-Mesa, Arizona 50.New Orleans, Louisiana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

»§ÜGÅR« Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 Originally posted by mr.yuck It's too quiet. Where is the loud music, where are the cars on rims, where are the crack houses, where is the violence. I dunno. Maybe I just haven't adjusted to a neighborhood where everyone is smiling all the time. Busters. exactly how i feel about my hood. NO gun shots... no gangsters on the corners.. it's BORING, but at least I dont hafta worry about getting shot or finding a place to park anymore.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
