Maybe COCKDIAN is a big fan of Iago.

 

And why is he the No. 1 fanboy for Sports Illustrated's Web site (as mention in his avatar)?

 

Boston
Chicago
Madison, WI
Columbus, OH
SF

Best big city I've lived: San Diego.

Best smaller city I've lived: Madison, Wis.

Remedial Theatre brings you:

COCKDIAN'S Othello ...

Act I, Scene One

(An Italian villa in early evening)

KOBEAGO: What up, bitch?

LeBRONO: My team's wins, homes.

DESDUHMOANA: Huh?

KOBEAGO: Not you, my lady! Get your ass back in that kitchen! (Turns to LeBRONO) Don't start with that playoffs bullshit again. 'Sides, I'm longing to try out my new Toledo blade, if you know what I mean.

LeBRONO: Heh, heh, heh.

KOBEAGO: Hey, want some of this chocolate spread? This stuff is the shit! Bitch, bring that food tray in here!

(Desduhmoana walks in with silver tray loaded with refreshments.)

LeBRONO: I don't know, dude. I'm in training.

KOBEAGO (scratching genitals): Don't be a pussy, man. 'Sides, I thought you was one of those Mores -- like "I want some more!"

LeBRONO: That's Moor, dumbass.

KOBEAGO: I don't want to hear your shit! Besides, there's only one more that counts, and that's amore. The ladies in this city are going to find that out!

LeBRONO: Heh, heh, heh.

DESDUHMOANA: Uh, I'm still standing here, fucktard.

KOBEAGO: Dammit, bitch! Get your behind out of the man talk goin' on here! Man, eat that spread!

LeBRONO: I told you, dude. I can't get fat.

KOBEAGO: Yeah, fat like that pile of shit Shaquillian. That dude is so fat, he needs two parking spaces.

LeBRONO: Um, what?

DESDUHMOANA (from the kitchen): Huh?

KOBEAGO: Shut your mouth, bitch!

LeBRONO: Hey, Kobeago, why you keep dissin' my woman? That is MY lady, you know.

KOBEAGO: Look, man, if I say this is my whip, it's my whip. If you don't like it, you can bounce your punk ass up out of here right now!

LeBRONO: I'll bounce your head off that wall!

(fighting; KOBEAGO sustains a royal asskicking)

 

The daughter of a family friend just moved to Buena Vista from south Denver. Got about twice the house, plus 2 acres, for less than they paid in the city.

 

As has been said: In no particular order

Seattle
Portland
Bellingham, Wash.
Spokane
Boise
Moscow, Idaho (seriously, a great (very) small college town)
Tucson
San Diego
Atlanta
San Francisco
Denver
Santa Fe

Never been to (so can't judge, but would like to visit):
Chicago
New York
Austin
San Antonio
Nashville

 

I love Key West. So shoot me.

Baltimore, overall, doesn't rank high. But it's got some great, great little pockets.

Charlotte, I thought, was the pits.

Orlando, I liked. Plenty to do.

Philadelphia ... bleccccch.

St. Louis ... as mentioned before, great downtown area but much of it is putrid.

Sacramento ... VERY underrated, I think. One of the finest downtown areas I've seen with "Old Sac."

Pittsburgh ... asi-asi.

And remember, friends ... you could always be living in Lewistown, Pa.

 

Ever get lost in St. Louis?

 

Pretty much. Like I said, pretty bleak.

 

Chi-town, New York, Washington, Boston
