The world leaders would just take our bon bons without asking first then make us pay taxes on them. lol
I love living here! It took some getting used to (the first two summers were rough!), but I have no regrets at all about the move.
Wow, I hate Cleveland.
My brother lives in Orlando, got a job offer in Cleveland (good, good job)....
It took him two weeks to decide there is no WAY he could leave Orlando for the city where the river caught on fire.
No offense. He's a weirdo. He loves West Virginia like a big sappy dork.
DH and I? We're going SOUTH after our VA requirement is up on this house (2 years baby!) ... and almost counting down the days!
The river thing was a long time ago. We have great, hard working people and a fun city with lots of great sports and entertainment. The winter weather is rough, but our season changes are awesome. I haven't lived anywhere else, but I absolutely love it here. DH and I had the chance to move when he was having a hard time finding a teaching job, but our families are all here and it would be really hard to go. And yeah, the city is pretty much dying, but there are a lot of those right now.
But I'll come visit you when you move!
I like to think of it as the best possible outcome from a post that the OP probably wishes they never thought of!
Could that have any bearing on why I don't have a life.

Come on down to visit, though. Hubby gets discounts at the CM store.
I know, it's just what he refers to it as. He really likes that beer. With the picture of the river burning, I think?
It wasn't meant offensively. I live in chemical valley. The study that USA today did...about air pollution in schools? The high school I went to is in the middle of the town-- and out of 127,809 schools w/ air quality tested, my school only had 72 with worse air quality. Out of 127, 809.
98% of the *toxicity* is from the plant where my Dad works (which is actually in Ohio)
I'm used to things like burning rivers.
I've lived in Ohio, WV and KY. I was born in WV and my parents moved back whenever both their dads had heart attacks within 6 months of each other.
KY was my favorite... we were 45 minutes from Cincinatti. Love that place!
( I did a brief stay in Florida but my roommate was a whackadoodle and I fled home!)
We're looking at South Carolina-- DH looks at jobs all the time. You like the Carolinas?
