    Georgia, Georgia
    The whole day through
    Just an old sweet song
    Keeps Georgia on my mind
    I said a Georgia, Georgia
    A song of you
    Comes as sweet and clear as moonlight through the pines
    Other arms reach out to me
    Other eyes smile tenderly
    Still in the peaceful dreams I see
    The road leads back to you
    I said Georgia, oh Georgia, no peace I find
    Just an old sweet song
    Keeps Georgia on my mind

    Yeah, really, unless there's some numerology thing we can't figure out.

    About 20 miles. I went to college 113 miles away from where I grew up, and maybe 125 from where my mom lives now. Any wonder why I'm not inclined to relocate?

    Mapquest says I'm 669.71 miles from where I was born.

    My previous job, much further south: 626.61

    Job before that: 394.77

    Then again, I moved from where I was born when I was 5. So you know, no real lure there.
