looking for people in north carolina

[chloe]

I've never been there. I've heard from more than one person though, that there's not much to do there. But that's always a matter of opinion. I'd love to visit it and see what it has to offer.

It's very pretty in pictures Ive seen. Borings ok with me, I wonderwhat the crime rate is like, what the public schools are like, my folks will visit NC in the Spring.

Well, one thing is probably for certain.

If the schools were good and the crime rate was low, those will probably deteriorate as more people move there.

Stop wondering and buy a book called "places rated" that has that type of info summarized for all major metro areas in the US.

What's the deal with North Carolinians calling it North Cackalacky?

 

[glockmail]

That's a new one. I have heard Northcalina though.

FYI---33 years living in Austin--I've only seen 1 rattlesnake.

Well I didnt go there but my parents did last spring and my stepdad saw 2 in the one week he was there. Plus he said even though real estate is low property taxes are high. I was all packed for Lake Travis and then we had to scratch it off the list....hehe

It's a pretty damn ritzy area--I don't even call it Austin.

 

[chloe]

I bet there weren't 5 people bitten by a snake last year and no deaths. They just aren't that prevalent. Gotta MUCH better chance of getting hit by a car.

 

[chloe]

Never met Gunny---I think he is around San Antonio-- around 80 miles away.

Two places I've seen rattlers in the wild are AZ and NC. Also seen plenty of bears here and even a cougar once. In fact the History Channel did a show on cougar sitings: Monsterquest Vampire Beast.

We also have plenty of black widow spiders and the even more deadly brown recluse.

 

[chloe]

Oh NO Glock, you have really scared me off from NC, I'll be sure and report all those facts to my stepdad!!

 

[glockmail]

I've captured at least two of these in my own house.

Pictures of a victim of brown reclusive spider bite-Unproven!

 

[chloe]

Don't worry I'll do everything in my power not to move out there....he he

Hey you can never be too careful. We have tornados and hurricanes too. What other state can say that?
