Default Your perception of where other Ledgies live.....

I thought it would be interesting for us to each share our *perceptions* (granted, many of them will be false) of the cities/states/countries where other Ledgies live. The place itself and/or the people who live there. Now be honest...if anyone gets offended, just view it as your chance to improve/correct others' perceptions.


I'll start:

Seattle, WA (USA)

*awaits comments on grunge music, people in plaid flannel shirts and ****ty weather.....*

(Hey, at least we're a BLUE state! I don't even care about politics, but I'm still glad to be blue!)

The only thing I've heard about Seattle is it rains alot? Is that right? Surely it can't rain more than England though! LOL!

Brisbane, from what I've understood, is a nice little city filled with Kookaburra cafés, some people with tyrannic tendencies and occasional Led Zeppelin/Queen references.

in finland, the sun sets at 2pm, so blonds stay in their saunas and have sex there.

considering that it was only established in 1909, no, not really.

I have to admit when I think of Seattle I do think of a lot people wearing flannel shirts with nappy long Kurt Cobain-esque hair, in the drenching rain...

I live in Atlanta, GA (well Metro Atlanta) ...any perceptions of Atlanta??

Well, I have been to Atlanta a few times and all I can say is TRAFFIC!
Not really a place that I am dying to visit again.

Don't even get me started on that airport or should I say DELTA. The shops there are really nice, however I did not have time to visit any last time I was there thanks to Delta.

I was always under the impression that polar bears are roaming the streets singing "Silver Girl" where Gaius lives. I don't know how I came up with that.
