No love for Charlotte?
Charlotte is basically Pittsburg. It's a trash city. I'll give you Asheville and possibly even Wilmington as exceptions but Charlotte is fucking terrible.

Charlotte is now the nation's second-largest banking center, after New York, and why one out of every five people in the region now has a finance-related job..
 ...that speaks volumes

I agree with Jules it's a city without a soul and lot of money to burn

Only been there once. Had a friend who moved there from Charlotte, and she seems to have no complaints. Perhaps the fact that her husband is likely pulling in big bucks working for Microsoft softens the blow. I think in any decent size city you can probably find pockets of beauty or pockets of hipness or pockets of progressiveness...or whatever it is that determines livability for you.

I didn't say that: I said it's a trash city.

legally, he can.  there has never been proof that any of this happened, though everybody knows it did.  without proof, you are technically defaming.  shitty move on his part, but lawyers can and will do anything, and I very much applaud all the woman who came forward.

cops shoots man climbing out of the vehicle he just wrecked, for no reason, without warning, without words, without anything that was even basic protocol.  Just shot him, and calmly put his gun pack in the holster. then lied to dispatch claiming he was refusing to get out of the vehicle.  and the whole thing was caught on tape.  and he wasn't charged with anything.  it was called an accident by d.a.

yep.  another day.

yeah, I know. he was drunk, wrecked his car and killed his wife.  did he deserve to be shot and paralyzed for no reason?  hmmm . . .  let me think about that.

Although Bands Don?t Know It, Conservatism Is The True Home For Indie Music

Oh hey, indie rockers, please stop making me think I'm wrong about everything.  ::)
