Dag Elkid...I can't believe you're so defensive about Philly since you admit you only live there because it's as close as you can get to NY. Face it, you're just using Philly so you can be a pretend New Yorker.
Just thought I'd give you something to get riled up about in class besides the idiots.
fondly,
A Texassian

Not only do you insult my fondness for my city, but you also call me a poseur and ignore me by not calling me. Really.
If I sold my "mansion" in Philly I could afford one month's rent on my Central Park West apartment. Because if I couldn't live in NYC in style, I wouldn't live there.
Tex-assian, indeed.

worst - toss up between Covington, Ky (it's a bit depressed) and Cincinnati, Oh (they roll up the streets at 5PM)
best - another toss up Austin, Tx (it was one big party and I was younger) and Washington, DC
I recuse myself from the Philadelphia as worst debate

I know what you mean, parts of the flying pig marathon course runs through Newport & Covinton then over the bridge back to Cincy.

Cinncy is definitely an ugly city! (that includes the surrounding areas of KY that don't really know they're part of OH)

And I'll just use those cities in which I've done a marathon:
Favorites: Boston, Chicago, Minneapolis/St. Paul, Tampa, Memphis
Least Favorites: Huntsville, AL, Appleton, WI, Spencer, IA |
oh great....you just named the 2 marathons that I'm probably doing this year. I've been considering Huntsville because it's supposedly fast but boring.

You will not be able to outwit my snipers, who will have special training in detecting banned Tex-assians and Suburban Snobs. Plus they will strip you of any alcohol you may have, and then make you forevah watch videos of me gleefully drinking it!
