Ha! She-vegas! ... Good golfing nearby. That's pretty much it.

What were the others?

Eau Claire, La Crosse, Oshkosh/Appleton, Madison and Green Bay

I honestly could see you in Eau Claire or Madison.

Compared to Kenosha and Sheboygan, those aren't bad ... could've been worse: Beloit, Janesville, Racine or Wausau.
 
Phoenix is number one on my list, which is reassuring given that I've lived in Phoenix for the better part of the last 13 years.

You should be shocked Durham is on MY list.

**** Durham.
Durham gets a crappy rap ... not entirely justified, either.

I'd like there in a second. Just be careful where you are in the city. Which makes Durham no different than just about any other place.

Knoxville, Tn.

Considering where I went to school, I don't care about Durham's rep. I don't want to be near Durham.

Been to a few of these places. Know of a few others. Many I've never heard of. Guess they took it seriously when I said I wasn't interested in a metropolitan area.
 
New Harmony is an awesome town, but I don't think you'd fit in there. Buncha hippies. It's an old commune essentially.

I can see you in Spearfish or Mitchell though.
 
What, I don't strike you as hippie-friendly? :)

I would like to live in Spearfish simply because it has, by far, the best name on my list.
 
I couldn't believe Richmond was on my list. From what I've heard, it's a crime-infested **** hole.

Then again, I live near a crime-infested **** hole as it is...
 
Nice find on the Web site.

I got Phoenix, Tucson and Las Vegas as my top three, which is pretty accurate because those are three cities I've had in my head that I would like to move to.

I am puzzled by the omission of San Diego on my list, since I lived there for about 10 years and consider it my favorite place on earth.

Oh, I think you'd get along with them, but just don't think you'd be happy with their communist ways infesting your life :D

I must have said I didn't like winters very much, because I got a ton of cities in Texas, Mississippi and Florida. I've never even been to two of those states and don't really have a desire to go to Mississippi, let alone move there.
