    The black guy won, Cam. Get over it.

    I'm kinda surprised Miami is on that list. Detroit? Sure. But Miami?

    Have you ever been to Miami it is a dump once you get away from the tourist areas.

    Sweet Dayton didn't make the list this year!

    Yea Dayton!

    Interesting... and one of the criteria was "performance of pro sports teams" That's certainly one of my top issues if evaluating a city to move to

    There's more than one conclusion that can be drawn by the correlation noted above. Jacking my account and blocking my posts won't change that.

    What are you talking about? FWIW, I've never had the authority to "jack" with anyone's account, and on this new version of the operating system I can't even edit most people's posts.

    Someone else may be fucking with you, but it ain't me.

    Oh, I know it isn't you; my apologies if it came across otherwise. That doesn't strike me as your style, FWIW.

    Not surprised at all that Sacramento/Stockton/Modesto are on the list. Things have gotten pretty bad there. I friend from Stockton told me they have a huge mosquito problem now from all of the foreclosed homes with swimming pools.

    Wow, Ohio got 5 out of 20, I figured out years ago that it's basically the armpit of America, now I'm sure of it.
