Daley says no to a lot of things.
Yet he gets re-elected all the time.

We dont have a democracy in Chicago, we have a monarchy.

Maryland-There's nothing good about this state at all, unless you're a wealthy non-black kid. If you are black, an adult, or poor avoid this state like the effing plague.
On the plus side, not to brag, but our women are pretty hot.
Just you wait one minute there, buckaroo! SC has the Ole Ball Coach! That's gotta count for something!South Carolina sucks and need to be wiped off the map.
So it's basically like every other state in the union.
Sans the pretty girl part. There are some states that are just...ugh. They know who they are.
I've always wanted to go to Boston.Massachusetts: Boston is cool,
That's like Texas bragging that they have the Bushes.and the Kennedys are from around here.
You mean cheat.Our sports teams dominate.
Come to think of it. Yeah. Ever heard of the Racial Profiling scandal of the 90s that took place in both Maryland and NJ?
But even with that past incident...Currently, I'm not sure. Because actually is the black on black BS that's the only bad part. Interatial connections are still pretty okay as far as I've experienced. Heck, I even actually had a civilized discussion with a neo-nazi once. Go figure.
The problem really is prodominently in the black community, and the worst problem of it is IS that we claim each other like we know each other. I see it a million times. A black dealer, pan handler, or whatever will time and time again ignore any non-black person passing his way no matter how he is dressed or carries himself. The instant he sees a fellow black guy, it's, "Yo you got a slug?" "Yo I got that weed.""You got the time?""Can I borrow your cell?" etc. And it 100% does not matter how that black kid is dressed, carries himself, or whatever. I used to think MLK's statement about not judging by the color of my skin but by my character went both ways, but I'll be damned if a lot of the black guys in Maryland didn't pick up on that.

You guys need to learn how to spell "secede" first, though. Baby steps.and the semi-awesome thing about Texas: we can succeed from the U.S and become its own country if we wanted to, and what the gov. is saying recently, it could possibly happen
lolYou guys need to learn how to spell "secede" first, though. Baby steps.
Confession: I wasn't 100% sure of the spelling, either. I had to double-check.lol
i wished that i lived in NYC longer
I'm in Maryland too, about 40 minutes outside DC. I'm in an area where ghetto meets country. I can go to a go-go club then drive 10 minutes south and go to a redneck bar. It's unfortunate for a metal-head like myself.
I have to disagree about the women here. I can't speak about the rest of Maryland, but the girls here are just alright. This became painfully apparent to me after I started going to school in Arlington.
What clubs and malls do you go to? Have you ever been to Mothers, White Marsh, Townson, Ritz? Those never disappoint when my friends go there.

Connecticut is a fairly nice place....we've had a Republican governor for quite a bit....John Rowland, who was a very popular Gov and had to resign over some improper use of state funds...and Jodi Rell, his LT Governor, who's been re-elected for a full term is doing as best a job as she can....CT is home of Sikorsky, one of the militarys primary supplier of helicopters, ESPN (located in Bristol, CT), WWE (located in Stamford, CT) and also the home to the corporate HQs of Bic and Subway.
One of the first drafts of the Constitution was authored here and hidden in a Nutmeg tree when the British came through, hence "The Nutmeg State"
One of the perceptions is that Connecticut is a rich state, when in fact 80-90 percent of the state is middle class or lower...the really rich people (Martha Stewart, Dave Letterman, etc) live in the Greenwich area, which is in close proximity to New York.
