      St. Louis shocks me on that list. I just assumed that city has been shrinking since 1960.

      One of the truly depressing experiences of my recent life was driving through Calgary and realizing their sprawl rivals Phoenix and Vegas for hideousness. I thought it was just Hurr Durr America that was to blame, but even our angelic neighbors to the North... granted, Alberta is Texas with worse winters.

      By extrapolation, I would expect Australia to become the worst place on Earth.

              I know that part. I was referring to the fact that the Australian population are the UK losers who were so awful even our own Appalachians turned them down.

                The bridge, the jetty, Old Town, it’s all very beautiful. Problem is the rest of it is either gated retirement communities or tract housing with huge drug problems.

                Or the casino, which is on the edge of town anyway.

                      The reservation near Madras is the most depressing place I've ever been. Men huffing from plastic bags in daylight on the street. Poverty jacked up past 11.

                      I didn't know there was any native land near Florence.
