better than:
Newark
Oakland
Darfur

worse than:
Cincy
Richmond, CA
Addis Ababba

I'd move to Philadelphia if I could park a tank outside my house and I worked at Duke and Duke, and for zero less.

Obviously I will not leave the South.

Is Nashville worth just visiting on its own? I mean, even if you don't have anything else to do in the area?

haha. The nice part of Portsmouth is TINY. I don't live there anymore. I forgot to change my profile info. I am in Virginia Beach now. Are you just saying that to be funny or have you really visited Portsmouth. If so, why?

I've played there a bunch of times over the years and i've found exactly one very good place to eat.

So for me... no.

It's super clean, and doesn't feel like a city to me, but the real bummer is that almost no one could point me towards a decent bite to eat after a gig.

My brother moved to Manchester when his wife got a job there, and when i visited him we went to Portsmouth for lunch/strolling. I have postcards over my disk done by that wood cut print place.

Correct. I didn't say anything yesterday because I didn't think it was that big of a deal, but when I first read his response I was like, "Manchester? Where the hell is tha......ooooh.....".

Portsmouth, NH IS a quaint little Seacoast town.

If they added blizzards to that chart it would rule out both Buffalo and my half of Michigan.

Does that say Southeast Nebraska is a low risk for earthquakes or some risk for tornados?
Hallam, NE which is just outside of Lincoln got wiped out by an F-5 a few years back, but no tornado has ever touched down anywhere I have lived in Nebraska for the 32yrs of my life.

I am very curious to hear about this one good eatery in Nashville. And it had better not involve pancakes.

Apparently being in an earthquake zone reduces the risk from tornadoes.
