    Nothing happens here. I hear stories of cool shit happening in other places like movies being filmed, alien abductions, etc. Where can I move to where something will fucking happen for a change? Does anything happen where you live?

    The most exciting thing that ever happened here while I've been alive was the military brought in a new piece of equipment for the research barge out on Seneca Lake. It was escorted by hummers and drove really slow. People said they drove it all the way from California like that. We didn't see any guns, but it still made us kids nervous. Everyone came swarming out of their houses to take pictures. My camera was broken. Figures.

    Please define cool shit.

    If alien abduction is your thing...Las Cruces, New Mexico, Moongate New Mexico, Deming New Mexico. I could go on but do you really want to be abducted? Sounds like a drag to me.

    What is cool to you?

    Nothing cool happens here either. Oh it was cool when they filmed the matrix in Sydney, cos I saw the black helicopters when I was in the city. and watching the movie I recognised all of the city buildings!! but nothing else cool has happened.

    I live in the second biggest crater on Earth...I missed the impact though since it happened 1.85 billion years ago

    Lots of cool shit happens in the jungle.

    But it might not be other peoples idea of cool shit.

    At least my life is interesting to me.

    If I get bored I can get on an airplane and go somewhere else.

    Here there are occasional movie made, but none that I have seen being made. A lot of politicians, so we have a fleet of hot air balloons that are naturally driven. ;)

    The best thing here is that we have a lot of music fests and in any direction there is open land and small towns. They all also have their own festivals and that it usually fun to attend.

    We are also really close to Montreal and Toronto, so further entertainment is easy to find.

    I love the greenbelt as it is nice to just do the nature trails.

    The cool stuff happens on the edges. Push your own limits and you begin to be cool.

    You really are out there in no mans land.

    Too far west to get in on the Hudson Valley UFO sightings and too far east of Buffalo to experience the nightlife
    and the grandeur of the niagara escarpment :(

    Now if the military was attacked by the serpent of seneca Lake that just might attract worldwide coverage :D

    Cool is anything other than pregnant women in Tweety Bird shirts, pushing strollers down the street, chain smoking and screaming at the other 15 kids that are tailing her down the sidewalk beating the shit out of each other, killing cats and destroying property as they go...
    Am I painting a picture, here? ;)
    I don't want to be abducted, but I can think of a few people I would like to see get abducted. :cool:
    Nah, not really, but it would be cool to see something out of the ordinary now and then.

    Good stories, btw, guys. :coffee:
