Ok, so you don't like the south and you've dug up stats to portray it
as an unsafe, unhealthy place. Good for you. What's your point? What
are you hoping to acheive from all this?

The odd thing is, the stupid ass lives in Atlanta.

I don't care much for large cities, but I'd take Atlanta over Detroit any
day.

Actually, nobody lives in the city. Of the 3.8 million folks, like 400K
live inside the loop. The rest of us live outside and commute when need
be. If you get an hour out of Atlanta, taxes are almost nothing, and
homes are shockingly inexpensive. For example, a brand new 4 bedroom 3
bath colonial with 2 car garage on an acre will run you about $120K, and
the builder will throw in a 10 year home warranty and provide builder
financing at better rates than banks do. Ain't gonna get that an hour out
of Boston or Hartford.

Atlanta is home to some great sports, and whereas scalpers in Boston will
slam you for $400 a seat for nosebleeds at Fenway; you can always get a
ticket to any Braves game from a scalper for $10 over face value. Add to
that a good football team, largest aquarium in the world, Six Flags, some
art museums, Broadway in Atlanta, a Symphony, and plenty of outdoor stuff
(the ORV trails out here are nothing short of amazing); and IMHO Atlanta
is the greatest city to live near. Oh, and the biggest airport in the
world - in case you wanna go somewhere for the weekend. Flights leave
every hour for the bahamas, bermuda, and an untold amount of places in the
Caribbean.

Don't forget the Hawks B-ball. And Six Flags.

And Atlanta's airport isn't the largest, it's the busiest. The largest is in
Riyadh.

I forgot to mention Hawks and Raptors because I am not a hockey / basketball
fan. Good catch. Also, I should mention that college football is big down
here, and you have UGA and GA Tech.

Actually, the way the propeganda goes - it's the world's busiest aiport
(passengers, takeoffs, and landings per year) and the world's largest air
passenger terminal complex (2.5 million sq. ft.). Next year it will get
even bigger - right now the planes have to cross the runways to get to the
far runway and the new runway they just built. So the Fed forked over $25M
to build new taxiways that actually go around the runways, and Atlanta will
come up with the other $35M. I caught that on TV last night.

Other plusses are that it's ony a day drive to Savannah, Destin / Panama
City, and New Orleans; so it is centrally located to some other big
vacation spots and cruise ship ports (NO, Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Houston)

"What the hell is "borrying money"?? And we're ignorant?"

Well put. The following link shows that the south has the highest
bankruptcy rate in the country.

I am not sure how to answer your question - "What the hell is "borrying
money"??"
If you purchase a four wheel drive pickup truck on a payment plan of
some type (leasing is a special case) then you borrowed money. If you
charged some hunting clothes or equipment on a MasterCard (which
charges interest), then you borrowed money. If you took out a bank
loan to pay for a deer camp, then you borrowed money. If you signed a
note with John Deere Credit to buy a bass boat, then you borrowed
money. It is hard for me to know just exactly how retarded you are.
If the above was not elementary enough for you, I suggest you contact
your third grade teacher - maybe she could explain "borrowing money" to
you in simpler terms.

The south has the most negroes. Negroes have a crime rate 4X that of
Whites. Their obesity rate is the highest in the nation. Too many White
males are obese and politically correct pussified wimps.

Many southern women have expressed to me the fact that their southern
husbands are too fat to have sex with except when the woman is on top,
because the gross weight of a southern man is enough to crush a woman,
plus they sweat too much. Yet, the southern (NASCAR WATCHING) men seem
to be proud of their morbid obesity and they use phrases like "livin
large". I think the southern phenomenon of going out into 35 degree
weather in a t shirt and no coat is something that was started by the
good old fat southern NASCAR fans. As any intelligent person knows,
the south is the most obese part of the country.
