Staten Island, New York
North shore>>>>>>south shore - don't get me started.

And SI is home to some of it's own pop culture; the Godfather, Christina Aguilera's birthplace (although I have no idea what neighbhorhood and I've searched so hard), Wu Tang Clan and a Madonna music video.

North Shore is win I knew a lot of people there. South is too close to Jersey for my liking. XD I never noticed how Stereotypical a New Yorker I am. Anyway my hometown is my old town. Elmhurst, Queens, New York. Coolest place in NY to live. I mean its right smack in the middle. Wanna go to the city? Zoom you're there. Long Island? Small drive to the L.I.E and you're on your way. I am probably confusing you guys and the NYers here might only know.

Bristol it's not really interesting. Hmm, Wikipedia says there are 34 other places in the world called Bristol, most in the United States. Most? There is more than one over there? XD

The Apprentice™ May 18th, 2009 10:10 AM

Well, considering that the UK is about 1/40th the size of the USA it's not surprising that there are a lot of fairly big places called Bristol. xD;

Saratoga Springs, New York

I love my hometown, I hope I can continue living here after I'm done with school. Although it gets pretty hectic here during summer because tons of people flood in for horse-racing season :D

Also, potato chips were invented here! \o/...You're welcome XD

Shem May 18th, 2009 6:13 PM

Well, I don't have any pictures of my own but here are some links.

howard street, pretty much our main street.

My school
http://home.earthlink.net/~daberrys/hibbing/images/hibbing_high.jpg

I'll throw you some info too. The town's economy is based of iron mining. the entire town is surrounded by big red hills from impure iron dumped around it. Man made mountains. they're pretty cool. the schools giant, people call it "castle of the North".

This town SUCKS. If you ever hear about Hibbing Minnesota, RUN AWAY! This town is a terrible place. The people are all prejudiced. If your last name isn't established in town. you WILL be shunned. I hate this town, everyone hates this town...

Gars129 May 19th, 2009 1:45 PM
