Guilford County... 8.3% (+3.7)

NC isn't doing too well overall, but my county actually has lower unemployment than much of the rest of the state.

Gogo minerals crash.

Gogo Turnbull blaming Rudd.

I think Kerry O'Brien should stand for election. I'd move to his electorate to vote for him if he did.

Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

Suffolk's always been a wealthy place to live as long as I've been here. Probably why my mother wants to gtfo ASAP.

I'm in Stony Brook which is more of a typical suburban area (and also is home to one of the best schools for medicine in the US) and my father's in Mt. Sinai which is more of an upscale town.

If you wanna see obscenely large houses you should see around where my father lives. Some houses around there...holy fucking shit. I mean, his house is pretty upscale as well and has a waterview, but it's nothing compared to some of the houses closer to the water.
