    Welcome to Hip Planet, TallSequoia! I've been to New Orleans a couple of times - many years ago; stayed in the French Quarter; it was really cool - I loved that it was open 24 hours a day! How is the situation in the Quarter going - is it all up and running since that hurricane did so much damage? Don't hear many reports on it; probably 'cause the government wants to avoid talking about it since they did so little to help the people then.
    I've also spent a couple of weeks in Tupelo, Mississippi years ago when I went there with a friend of mine visiting their family who lived in Tupelo. I've got to say that it was a really weird town - it was kind of a depressing place. Hopefully where you have settled is not the same way. Down here in Florida, you may find a better environment
    and it's not unreasonably far for you to travel to. Central Florida (Tampa area) is pretty cool because there are three universities there, which means that there is a good cross-cut section of people of all ages there - but particularly where you are concerned; lots of folks your age. Not that you'd have to go to one of the universities at all - just that because they're in the area, a great variety of people of all shapes & sizes; of all different ages; live there. And, the atmosphere is much, much more cheerful than Mississippi. Just a thought for you to consider. I know what you mean about the people where you are - I thought it seemed like they come from another era, or something, you know what I mean? I just felt like I was in the Twilight Zone or something when I was there! If you can indeed work your way down to the Tampa area, you'd probably find it a better place to live - a majority of the people are really nice. Or, another good area is the opposite side of the state; but still in Central Florida - near Orlando and Lake Buena Vista, where Disney World is - lots of potential for jobs there - wouldn't it be fun to work at Disney World?! And, you're just the perfect age to work there, too!
    Anyway, welcome to Hip Planet, TallSequoia!

    Regards, One Of The Difference

    thanks everyone! New Orleans for the most part has recovered or is in the process of recovering.
