Well, I'll tell you all the truth. There's nothing to do here in Saint John. So you really shouldn't come visit. Unless you really want to see the highest tides in the world. Or something silly like reversing falls. Silly tourists.

Well, Liz and her sister's excuse for visiting Texas isn't exactly close to me. It's on the opposite side of town (and technically, it's in Clear Lake and not Houston). Depending on traffic I could get to it in anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 hours.
On the other hand, I'm just a couple miles from the Galleria Shopping Center. It's a giant mall with overpriced stuff. Some people like to shop there, I like to curse the traffic as it interferes with my work commute.
I'm also a couple miles from Memorial Park, about 5 miles from the museum district and medical center, and Houston is home to over 150 gentlemen's clubs (but I doubt Liz and her sister would want to visit one). We also have a billion dollars worth of new sports stadiums housing teams that haven't have a good season in many moons (except the Aeros -- the won the Calder Cup last year, I think).

I live between Chicago and The Arch/TSN in the St. Louis area... Springfield has a population of over 100,000, and still has corn fields in town....

Oooh. Cornfields. They're fun for UFO buffs.

Well, it is Illinois. Somewhere in downtown Chicago is probably the only point in the state that isn't within a mile or two of the nearest corn stalk.

Were in America's Wang, we have citrus and a few of those "gentleman's clubs". Everyone there is a "gentleman" or the bouncers will smash you. Smash you good.

The Booby Trap, in Detroit, on 8 Mile Road just west of I-75 was a nice place.

Anything that has any sort of relation to the movie "8 Mile" can't be good...
