oh yeah - favorite cities?

1) cleveland
2) philly
3) DC

that's all i can think of.

Sounds like Providence. We have a nice mall downtown and an Ivy League school on the East Side. Other then that the city is pretty much a dump.


I really liked Cleveland when I was there in 2003. I would go back there.

I went to DC once last year and the area that I was in near George Washington University was nice. I would stay there again but some of the other parts are scarry.

I was just there for the PBS taping. Driving 14 hours straight wasn't such a good idea. We arrived around 3am....and couldn't find a hotel....It was snowy...I was cranky and just needed sleep before the show the next night. The only areas I saw was the Fleet Center (all under construction) and the hotel room.

originally posted by DavidMn #3. San Diego. To me, bar none the best city in California. It never seems to ever get above or below between 65-75 degrees, and the Gaslamp district is a real treat with it's many great resturants. Also, a very safe city to talk in at night,and least in downtown where I was. Oh, and San Diego is also the first place I ever saw Fleetwood Mac in the front fow in 2003. San Diego, #3.
Surely you jest? San Diego is not even a real city compared to San Francisco .a true world class cosmopolitan center that could hold it's own with Paris or Rome.San Diego is more like a Midwestern city that happens to be located on the California coast.

I haven't traveled enough to know really. Chicago was cool, so was Madison. Most of the cities I have been to were middle of nowhere mid western places and I barely remember being there. The good old days...
