    Astoria is a nice place, but it's very very depressed, no jobs.
    Thanks Mimi I knew it was (oria) something That's cool that your nephew got be an xtra. They do a lot of films in GA too. There's a little town not far from me called Senoia Ga and they have a movie scout/ production place there. Really neat. I visited several of the places where they filmed Fried Green Tomatoes in the early 90's. Jennifer

    That quiz was interesting Snap. It placed me in CA quite a few times, up and down the coast. But I'm not into earthquakes so much. I was also placed in Eugene, Salem and Portland OR, all in the top 10. Colorado came up twice. Oh, and once in Louisiana. I have nothing against Louisiana, it just seemed out of place compared to all of the west coast ones. Like I said, interesting. Ya know, I may just try out the Portland area for a while and see how it goes. Does anyone know how long it takes to drive from PA to OR? Hmmm... *trots off to mapquest* doodeedoodeedoo Ah, ya know, if you drive straight through, you can get there in under 48 hours. Of course, there are soooo many neat places to see along the way. And a person has to sleep, or so I'm told. So, maybe 5-6 days? Verrrrrryyyy interesting indeed...

    Cool site, snap!

    I got Portland as my number 1 result!

    The rest of my top ten made sense to me, except that I really don't know how Little Rock AR snuck in there!

    OK, my top spots are:
    1. Fredericksburg, Texas
    2. San Marcos, Texas
    3. Natchitoches, Louisiana
    4. Kahului-Wailuku, Hawaii
    5. Mountain Home/Bull Shoals, Arkansas

    Somehow I don't see myself ever living in any one of these. Although I did always think it might be nice to live in Texas, but I've never been there.

    Eugene and Corvallis were my top two. Funny.

    All the while on that Redhook ride, I kept thinking "This is so much like the paths in Euge..." "I love how they make this little bridge- just like in Eugene..."

    *siiiigh* If I click my heels enough, will I eventually get back to the emerald city?
