Top Ten Places to Live...

The Dave Smith who ever could be confused with dominant may have lived in La Jolla.... but I don't think he ventured from the Astrodome to wear the taco unis at Jack Murphy Stadium.

 

Today's conditions:

Baker, Montana: High 92, humidity 41%

Fort Lauderdale, Florida: High 89, humidity 63%

And we won't even discuss winter.

 

No. 47... Sayreville, NJ, in addition to being the hometown of Jon Bon Jovi (which alone should disqualify it) consider the following:


But there were also numerous Superfund sites and landfills. For years, thousands of New Jersey motorists heading south on the Driscoll Bridge knew they were near Sayreville when they spotted the green lagoon of its National Lead plant on the right -- and rolled their windows up.

Still, by this year the Middlesex County town had shed enough of its manufacturing past to come in at No. 47 on the magazine's 20th annual list of 100 places to live. The list also included six other New Jersey towns -- Montville, which ranked 13th; Hillsborough, 23rd; River Vale, 29th; Marlboro, 33rd; Berkeley Heights, 45th; and Readington, 58th.

To some, the magazine's decision to make Sayreville No. 47 was a bit perplexing.

"Apparently, Money magazine has never been to Sayreville," said Robert Spiegel, the director of Edison Wetlands Association, an environmental organization in Middlesex County. "It's a nice town, but it has a beautiful view of Edgeboro Landfill ... Superfund sites, a possible cancer cluster and ash from a steel plant dirtying the air in several neighborhoods."

 

That would have necessitated a change in username, no?

 

I'd take 92/41 over 89/63 any day of the week.

 

It's all subjective. I've always been partial to Roanoke. I think Moddy would even back me on that.

 

Typical housing cost, $310,000.

Does Neil Cavuto work for Yahoo!? This sounds like something he and his Wall Street cronies would come up with.

 

I didn't even go down that far. Holy fucking shit.

They obviously have never been to Grand Terrace.

 

The genius of Yawn...

 

On the beach?.... I won't use a name.

 

Actually, after checking the Heat Index calculator on the NOAA site, I'd prefer 92/41 over 89/63.

Heat index in Lauderdale ... 94 degrees.
Heat index in Baker ... 99 degrees.

My bad, sorry.
