h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Dear lord, man! I'm your neighbor (for the moment, anyway) over in northeast Georgia. My condolensces for living in the southern US.

Yeah, thanks. The place is terrible about sports. I once had a friend who asked me which I rooted for, Alabam or Auburn (Their popular football teams around here). He said that if I aswered Auburn then he wouldn't be my friend any longer. Of course I have no intrest in football teams, or really any sport for that matter. I was really born near Los Angelas, but we moved here when I was three. But what can you do? Even my parents can't imagine living here another decade.

About the only sport I care about is Quidditch (on PS2). Heh heh!
Yeah, football is like a religion in most southern states. That and the Braves. The Atlanta Braves are the s*******t team around! They're only popular because they had a few strong years in the early to mid 1990s and actually won the World Series in 1995.
So....just why does your family remain in Alabama? Why not Tennessee or the Carolinas? North Carolina is beautiful. I've driven to Ohio three times and even though it takes about ten hours I love it. I love going over the lake at the border of South Carolina and Georgia. And watching the mountains slowly greet me between North Carolina and Virginia.
However, I can do without West Virginia and the mountain tunnels. There are two on I-77 and I always end up screaming when I drive through.

My parents are slow with big changes. Also I think my Dad has a GOOD job at Raytheon that he can't go without. We have been living a long time here, so we have many friends here. Plus, I think that costs LOTS of $$$ to move. It seems that I'll be here for another school year or so.
