there are many who would argue that is in fact better (no I'm not one of them.... maybe). |

The crime outbreak in Wisconsin has more to do with methamphetamines than anything else. The one thing that has been very sad to watch over the last few years has been the almost unbelievable stratification between rich and poor, which I realize is happening nation wide, however the divide seems especially clear in Wisconsin.
Beyond that, we have probably one of the single most corrupt Governors in the country, though I can deal with his corruption because his desire is to meet ends I find desirable. Maybe not the most ethical approach, but honestly, far better than the alternative. |

Ok, another random fact...
Brisbane (and a good portion of Australia, though I am unsure of their exact situations) is experiencing a severe drought. We are currently on level 4 water restrictions, meaning that there is a complete ban on hosing for any purpose. Any garden plants that require watering must me done by bucket, and only allowed on specific days of the week. The dam supplying Brisbane's water is below 25% full. |

Here another fact about Santa Clarita. The interchange where the 14 starts and where the collapse happened is in Santa Clarita
| quote: | | Parts of Route 14's interchange with Interstate 5 near Los Angeles collapsed during both the 1971 Sylmar earthquake and the 1994 Northridge earthquake. The interchange of SR-14 and I-5 is dedicated as the "Clarence Wayne Dean Memorial Interchange." Dean was an officer with the Los Angeles Police Department who was killed at the interchange in a traffic accident on a transition road that collapsed as a result of the Northridge quake, January 17, 1994. |

Montreal was founded in 1642, is the second largest city in Canada and the largest city in the province of Quebec. It is the largest French speaking city in the Western Hemisphere, and is the French language hub outside of France.

I really do enjoy living here :) It's big enough that you can still get most things (important things anyway), but not so big that it's like a rat race.
Population is approx. 1.8 million, river city, lots of trees (assuming we get any rain), lots of room, and the music scene isn't too bad.
It is very sleepy compared to a lot of cities though. I don't know if that's good or bad :p |
