Title: Anything special about where you live?
Post by: ThePowerOfOne on October 05, 2008, 09:36:19 PM
Is there something special about your town? Landmarks, special people that live there, etc... My town is just a small little beach town, only notable thing is a pier :P  (Pic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Cayucos.jpg)

But only about 7 miles or so away is Morro Bay, a much bigger town. I'm there every day, probably the most noticable things there is, of course, Morro Rock (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Morro_Rock_1.jpg), apperently landmark no. 821, and part of the 7 sisters, a big chain of volcanoes. And the power plant, with 3 450 ft. steam stacks. And I guess I should note that Jack LaLanne lives there XD (Is he dead yet, if so, lived, there :P)


So yeah, post something interresting about your town.

Casinos, strip clubs, sex shops, a high rate of high school drop outs like me, the City was created by gangsters like Bugsy Siegel <333, Fright Dome apparently, Lake Mead, the intercourse ing Dam, the fact that you can get married by Death, and some other crap.

And contrary to popular belief, Prostitution is NOT legal in Las Vegas.  It is in Pahrump, Primm Valley, And..  something Boulder that's near Arizona.  If I remember correctly, there needs to be a population of 200,000 or less for prostitution to be legal, but I may have the numbers wrong.  Prostitution WAS legal a few good years ago, and Casino's would usually have their own stable.  Today we have a population of about 3 million or so.

Kickass barbecue, Buck O'Neill, and one of the cities with the most fountains in the world.
As for where I normally live, nothing terribly special. But since I spend 5 out of 7 days in Kansas City...

It's one of the more affluent towns in the area, and I think we have some semi-famous rich people here.

I'm in the "normal" end of the town :P

Really cuz our cops are like super enthusiastic.

There's rarely anything to do around here, so when like someone's house gets robbed like 8 cop cars will show up, 2 emergency hospital vehicles, and a fire engine.

My town has one of the last single-screen movie theaters in NY. They have screenings there a lot and Tom Cruise came once to do a screening...
My town's the oldest town in the county, and the smallest town in the state.
