I hate surburban sprawl because I moved to the edge of the 'burbs to be away from the city, and it moved out here to meet me, and then pass me. I want to be able to get the hell away from the city on a moment's notice, in case there's ever an urgent need to do so, and you sure as hell can't do that if the city has grown up 10 miles past where you live.

You sprawled, someone else sprawled farther.

Then move WAY the heck out. I am.

In about a month, I'm leaving the Washington, DC area behind, with all its' traffic, gangs, violence, and people at the Mcdonald's drive-through who can't understand a simple meal order in English.

I'm moving to West Virginia, where people are polite, speak English, and moving to a house twice the size of the townhouse I'm currently living in, for about two-thirds the money.

Now all I'll need is a Republican Governor and Legislature, and Republican Congressmen and Senators, not the likes of "Sheets" Byrd and Jay Rockefeller. . .
