Well, that's your opinion... I've spent over 25 years in Georgia and it's STILL a shithole. At least the roads are better here. The shithole where I was born and raised, Rochester, NY, has roads which are barely better than cow paths. It's not possible to go faster than 50KPH on an interstate in PA without having the front end of your car vibrated to pieces. I saw one of those huge John Deere double-axle tractors completely disappear into a pothole on a detour from I-77 near Eerie. So Georgia and NY are shitholes as well? Guess what, Hippie....it is what you MAKE of it. There is no state that is perfect...Pa has bad roads, but that is because we have bad winters where the snow is knee high. But when that snow is so deep and we are stranded, there will be a stranger who stops his car to offer a hand, or a neighbor who will work his way to your home to make sure you are ok. There are road crews that work around the clock to try to clear the roads, and power company employees that do the same. Pennsylvania has had a few disasters, but if you keep your heart open, you will see human nature at its finest. Open your heart, dude...and Happy Thanksgiving. My, that is impressive. Knee high snow. We didn't get any of that snow stuff up there near Rochester and Buffalo. We weren't burdened with any of those "neighbor" types either. In fact, I'm thinking that upstate NY was so idyllic that I'll be moving back myself. I might stop off and spend a couple weeks in Williamsport PA. They used to have the best drugs back then around 1973 or so. Middle PA was famous for the drugs. I reckon that's why there were so many helpful strangers looking to make a drug deal. I was going to make a remark about irony and satire and sarcasm, but I figure it's pointless. I'm having a flashback! It's Elvis!!!! "Viva, Pennsylvania!"
