Define "metal".

We want to check out Manchester. Looking to see which neighborhoods are the safest.

We want to check out Manchester. Looking to see which neighborhoods are the safest.

We jokingly call that Manch Vegas. But seriously, lived in or around Boston all my life (I'm in Somerville, a bordering city, right now. Seriously Boston is one stop on the subway), so Manchester is, what, like an hour drive?

[Nephew Twiddleton]

Manchester is not bad, incidentally. Quite a few rock clubs and dive bars, incidentally. The only times I have been there were to either play shows, see shows, or hang out with people I met at a show. Couple of biker bars. Seems like a pretty safe city to me, and pretty metal to boot.

Yeah hoping our tax return gets here by our anniversary, and also shes going to talk to her manager about extending her days requested off for a whole week. My gift to her is to drive to her folks so she can see them, and then go look for houses. My brother and his gf might tag along since they're both interested in seeing NH.

Sounds good. NH is a nice state. New England is a nice country, actually. NH is a different political dimension (which, I will only hold against you if the position is unreasonable). I hope it works out. I like to meet as many Discordians as possible. Part of the reason why I'm planning a trip back to my father's home country and nearby island.

I concur, I usually get to NH a few times a year, more in the White Mountain region.  It's definitely a nice area.

Mmmm. Is my country too. My Americanness is obvious over there though, just as my non-Americanness is here.

I kinda miss, NH honestly. It's been a long time.

The next time I'm scheduled to leave MA is when Villager and I are gigging with Daniel in Burlington, VT, and then, he's driving back to Fall River, while we drive to Montreal. Because that will be a first. She's never left the US. I've never visited another North American country. It was a sort of, "Hey... let's fucking go to Canada!" and she was like "Yay! Finally get to use my passport! :hairy eye directed at me:

[AFK]

Montreal is cool, I haven't been there in a long time though, since they started requiring passports at the border.  If you guys are into animals/nature at all you should check out the Bio-Dome while you're there.

Hmmm. Science is one of those weird things were we have job overlap (she works next door to where I work, and from the same hospital) but not necessarily outside overlap. Like, ok, we both work for well known Boston hospital, but she's in Sleep Medicine, and always has been, even though she's worked for other hospitals before (published science author btw), and I've just been a grunt in Epidemiology on the same floor since 2000. But ever since I was a kid I wanted to be a scientist of some sort or another. Never happened. Got the music bug in my formative years. It's how I met her in the first place. Or rather, got to know her. Well, I introduced her to Sci-Fi. And by introduced I mean, she had never seen Sci-Fi before. She had never even seen Star Trek until I started dating her.

I'm amazed and romance stricken with New Hampshire. It reminds me of Texas if all the baby boomers died, and all their bleeding heart hippie children got their shit together. Socially it's amazing, fiscally it's got it's shit together. I love how they have industrial hemp legalized there.

I've been hearing a lecture about ancient alien theories debunked. So I was away for awhile. Alot of things were new to me on real ancient engineering, and also I have more respect now for the Pre-Inca cultures. The re occurring theme for these monuments is LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION.

I did not know Egyptians used copper. I thought they used heavy rocks and lots of sand.
I'm starting to think these ancient alien "experts" are closet racists. NON WHITES BUILDING MONUMENTS!!! How dare they use geometry!  Clearly brown people had alien technology. Alot of the experts of the ancient  alien movement are just shitty authors, and hipsters.

I need to post a picture of me angry. SOON!

To us NH is just weird land. Well, as far as I can tell. I won;t speak for other New Englanders. Anyway I loke forward to crushing a few cups. You should bear in mind though, that I have dual citizenship with an EU nation (we're facebook friends now, so you know my last name, take a stab) so, I'm guessing that you're more of a libertarian bent, whereas I am more of a socialist bent.

Also that Greek American dude with the crazy hair is hilarious. I... Giorgios Tsoukalos or whatever.

Villager (my gf) was watching something. Seemed legit. Then Giorgios busted out and was like, "maybe Abraham Lincoln was abducted by aliens" and naturally she went, "Wh.... what?" and the :remote control:

[Nephew Twiddleton]

Here's the thing bearman. You can move to NH and be damn happy. Won't make a damn bit of difference in the scheme of things. If you want to move to a place that has no sales tax and fairly loose gun laws for the Northeast. then have at it. BUT. You are a Texan. Can you handle New England? It's not for the weak. It IS for the complainers, and be prepared for that and, sort of harsh winters (talk to Canadians and Norwegians here). If you think you can deal with the moderate cold, cool. One of us. If you can't, you might as well live in Los Angeles. If you move here, I am more than happy to visit you or pull you down to Boston from time to time. But be sure that Manchester is what you want.

Note: this does not apply to the original Manchester, where the kids will knife you for having a funny accent and then steal all your belongings, and that is probably the best way to die that the city can offer.
