    This is quite possibly the worst list ever compiled and I thought I would post it here for ridicule:

    Could they make it any harder to read?

    What's wrong with that list? You have a problem with New York as No. 1?

    Granted, I haven't been to THAT many cities in the U.S., but I cannot remember one where I didn't have a good time. At least those cities in which I spent more than a few hours. My favorites are Nashville, Memphis, New Orleans, Vegas, DC, NYC, Dallas and maybe Orlando.

    Turk Malloy: Saul, do you get out to Utah much?
    Saul: Not as often as I'd like.
    Turk Malloy: Check it out. I think you'd dig Provo. You could do well there.
    Saul: I'll look into it.

    Too hard to fully navigate but in a few random clicks found some ponderous sub rankings.

    For example in culture Allentown is ranked # 11 and Memphis # 75 - Have the Blues left Memphis? Like Billy Joel I never want to be stuck in Allentown.

    Scranton is listed # 11 in food and drink.

    Two names I always enjoy, Thelma and Provo.

    Riverside at No. 8?

    The list is clearly satire.

    EDIT: I misread it. I guess the order goes across the top row (which is a design flaw worthy of scorn).

    I guess they threw in Riverside because they were running out of cities.

    I would agree with this list. Poughkeepsie is MUCH more fun than Vegas.

    You can't pick your toes in Vegas.

    There were three cities on there that I have never heard of.
