They have a very good football team!I binged it. Looks very german to me, in the sense of "very dull and boring".

I kinda like Hamilton....now Burlington, that is a whole other matter!First, thank you for binging it (I am trying to make "to bing" a verb).
Second, it is a once proud steel city, now in its fading stage. Once advertised itself as "the Sheffield of Canada".
Bing Sheffield, or watch The Full Monty, and you get it.
Also a hotbed of Mafia in Canada. A Mafia boss was just hit in nearby Burlington, Ontario, my hometown.
You can bing that Too!
Yep, even the VooDoo Donuts are waaaay over rated!Portland, Oregon
I've lived in the Los Angeles area of southern California for 59 years, and I can't argue a single word. Spot on!...There's a LOT of LA to not like, but it's a nice vacation place. if you don't live there you can afford to take a couple of weeks off and go on vacation there. I assumed that the 29 and 32 year old kids would like Venice Beach and Santa Monica, nope, they liked Huntington Beach having lunch with all of my 55 year old plus friends from work and want to go back THERE. We went to Porto's twice. Cuban Bakery. They though that LA's walk of fame was a mess, to quote the kid "If were just going to the carnival, we could have gone to Hutchinson to the State Fair." They liked the Getty and the Tar Pits...
They are jokes on the net about Bridgeport (Connecticut).
But what's so special about it? I mean, there are many rotten industrial cities in the world.
When I was a kid growing up in NYC, I was up late somehow one night. Sick or something I suppose. And there in glorious Black and White was "SHE". The plot made no sense and I couldn't finish watching it (my parents eventually woke up and forced me to bed at gunpoint) but one thing stayed with me for the rest of my life... (wait for it....). You guessed it, an almost nekid Ursula Andres.... double wow. I can't believe nature made something so.... amazing! I was well grown and gone before I saw the whole film in color, sigh... she haunts me still....
Worf
To be fair, it's been done:Metropolitan Area Tokyo, nah, away with that. Not human, unhealthy.
Always got a thrill with Ursula. She starred opposite George Peppard in The Blue Max; and of course was a Bond girl,
other treats of recent and not so recent vintage. She was married to John Derek, as was Bo Derek; whom I once
found myself with inside Blackstone's, a tiny bookshop wedged inside Chicago's O'Hare Airport Terminal Three,
and Bo was alone, engrossed in some table book display. Confess, a cop outside told me she was inside, so I
ducked quickly thereto this holy-of-holies literary sanctuary to attempt a chaste, pure as driven snow converse.
Bo was a scant four feet away and I set for approach when a clerk approached and asked if she might be of
assistance...I inquired if Hawthorne's The House of the Seven Gables was available (knowing that it was not,
since I had been in Blackstone's a year ago), Bo sauntered off further, beyond polite casual distance.
The moment had been utterly ruined.
A woman I know visited Vancouver from the UK about 10 years ago from Britain. She walked downtown from Victoria Drive along Hastings Street passing Main St into the downtown core. I met her for dinner that evening.East Hastings part of Vancouver, BC. Generally regarded as THE WORST neighbourhood in North America.
Recall North America includes Haiti.
SPEW!!!! Now THAT was a good un'!East Hastings part of Vancouver, BC. Generally regarded as THE WORST neighbourhood in North America.
