Re: Where do you live?
I'm from what boils down to be suburban hell... And what's worse, it's a suburb of the number one joke city in America: Albany, NY!!! (So far, I know it's been trashed in Dilbert, Doonesbury, and the Daily Show... any others, let me know...) I'm from a moderately sized town about 5 miles away from the city called East Greenbush. Despite being the butt of almost every joke involving corrupt government and relocation, It's a pretty nice place to live. It's about 150 miles away from both New York and Boston, and 250 from Montreal, and is right at the foothills of the Adirondack mountains. And we have a pretty sweet mall, and 3 really good places (and a few okay ones) that sell drums, although none exclusively. Overall, it's all good, even for the 'burbs.
EDIT: Okay, Albany's been made fun of by Family Guy now, too... GO SOX!!! (My Dad's from CT... I never really had a choice)
