Where does everyone live?

Since I'm one of the new folks to which Giles is referring, I'll play along. I grew up in North Carolina (Charlotte), then lived in Arizona (Flagstaff) and New Jersey (Camden and Trenton), and now I live here:
actually pretty close to here:
and the most common view of the city for residents (in the most common manner, through a car windshield):
As you may have gathered, I'm not overly enamored with Houston. Nonetheless, here I am.

the home of three amazing things…
kinda lame, i know. but i'm proud of my city

Hello, my name is nameness and I'm addicted to Iron Heart. I live in Burbank, California.
This studio lot is literally at the end of my street:
I live a couple miles over the hill from this:
For those of you who may know the area, I live a short walk from this:
I've lived lots of places but always come back to LA. Our place before this was three blocks
away from this:

Jakarta, Indonesia. I've lived here all my life:
In about a month's time, however, I'll be moving to the States (Seattle, WA) with the younger sister for university. When the day finally comes, I guess a tear or two will be shed on my part.

nameness… you live about 5 minutes over the hill from me.
and speaking of sexual predators, one old dude actually lives in my complex. i found his mug on the meganslaw website -
I'm lucky enough to live a block and a half from a school. That means nooo sexual predation. I looked that up and it was quite a suprise how many there are. I now skip those houses when I trick or treat.

… how old are you?.. Man anyone laying a finger on me would get dealt with... No cops - but he'd know the score
Anyone - no way I want to sound negative or aggressive... I'm neither, mostly. But it kinda surprises me that you guys actually worry about it... Shit I have lots of ex-cons, junks and general crazy lads living in my hood. Never felt like I had to worry. If anything: it keeps the cops out, and problems are dealt amongst ourselves

From a legal perspective, it seems questionable that sex offenders in the US are punished beyond the legally mandated sentence while other criminals (murders, drunk drivers, etc) can live their post-prison lives in anonymity.

Edit: Just did a search. There is an offender just around the corner from where I grew up in NJ.

Purely from a legal perspective: correct. But I think other sentiments come into play when you have a child…

Hi,
I am from Austria and live some 50 km south of Vienna.
Wanted to post some places of interest, but after my today's experience I want to share my ecstasy with you!
I just get back from the Vienna Life Ball - it was amazing, wonderful and exciting.
The event took place in front of the Vienna town hall.Unfortunately a heavy thunderstorm stopped the outdoor ceremony. My wife and me could escape in the last second before we get soaked from the pouring rain.
A lot of prominent joined the event, such as Whoopi Goldberg, Bill Clinton, Liz Hurley, Dita von Teese and Patti LaBelle.
Please see the pics below.

@simon626:
Awesome Pics Karl! What kind of event is this Life Ball? What is everyone celebrating?
are you being sarcastic with the comment about your jeans?….I only spot men in drag
The Life Ball is one of the biggest AIDS charity events in the world and an internationally unique ball.
And: I was a spectator, not a guest
Really wearing the Jeans.
