legion Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Toronto native, here. Not the nicest part of Canada, admittedly, but I like it. I've been here my whole life though, so I'm thinking it's time for a change of scenery. Now, if only I could find a way to smuggle myself over to some European country or other, I'd be set!

Purgatorio Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 (edited) australia (note the lacking capital). I was born in Griffith N.S.W, raised a little NW of Sydney. If you want to waste a nuclear strike on me here is the closest readable position of my physical form. Were I "live" Woodend ...(my life here but I wouldn't be caught dead here) it's a bit blurry, because light doesn't reach the bottom of the pit. Aim for High street or the Clock Tower on High street, just make sure it is Woodend, because every decent sized town has a High street with a clock tower in Victoria. If you choose to make a land assault make sure your white with a redneck and you will go unnoticed. You might want to start here>No one would mind I certainly don't. Just make sure the PM is at Yaralumla.... EDIT:..... After all that the link doesn't work.

Lucius Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 So you actually got away from Jersey? According to Sam Jackson in Long Kiss Goodnight, the entire population of Jersey has tried and failed. Seriously though, what is it about Jersey that makes everyone joke about the place whenever I hear about it? I've never been there. DENMARK!

Colrom Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 So you actually got away from Jersey? According to Sam Jackson in Long Kiss Goodnight, the entire population of Jersey has tried and failed. Seriously though, what is it about Jersey that makes everyone joke about the place whenever I hear about it? I've never been there. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There are a couple of reasons that some folks like to joke about New Jersey. Here's some info: NJ is the most densly populated state in the USA. NJ has a very substantial chemical and pharmaceautical industry. NJ has great ocean beaches. NJ has casinos in Atlantic City, a beach town. Substantial parts of NJ are supporting cities and suburbs to NY City or Philadelphia. These areas include very low class and very high class neighborhoods. Much of the parts of NJ just outside NY City and Philadelphia are overrun with docks and truck and rail depots and warehouses and oil and gas storage tanks and garbage dumps and airports supporting these cities and surrounds. A large swamp like area called the Meadowlands is within sight of NY City and contains lots of inductrial support infrastructure. Because of the wetlands and the chemical industries that are there the place stinks. Other parts of NJ are very country and some areas are very high class. NJ has substantial ethnic populations but the education system is the fourth most segregated in the nation (not by conscious design - just because each town has it's own independent housing standards and school system). This is maintained by financing local governements and schools from local property taxes (although most NJ residents aren't aware that the segregation is evident or that the property tax support for schools is an enabler). More later. As dark is the absence of light, so evil is the absence of good. If you would destroy evil, do good. Evil cannot be perfected. Thank God.

Colrom Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 (edited) NJ is one of the first places immigrants move to after arriving in the US through New York City. NJ has a substantial population of Italian-Americans (Americans with Italian heritage). NJ has a substantial population of Jewish-Americans. NJ has a substantial population of German-Americans. NJ has a substantial population of Irish-Americans. NJ has a substantial population of Arab-Americans. Etc. Etc. Etc. Lots of ethnic and mixed neighborhoods. The German American Bund and the Ku Klux Klan held a joint meeting in Andover NJ in 1940. Local Jews and others formed a group called the Minutemen in the late 1930s that protested and boycotted and also beat the crap out the Nazis and the KKK as much as possible in NJ and NY. The Mafia is said to have homes and estates in NJ. The countryside is beautiful. There are big parks and wildlife refuges. Rolling hills and many woods. Rustic towns. It's great! (w00t) I love NJ!
