1. The advantages of living in a suburb is you don't have to live near crowded lines to get in and out of things in the city. The disadvantages of living in a suburb is you have to go into the city most of the time to go shopping.
2. My family moved to Long Island because my father worked in our cellar in Rhode Island, and his company was in Queens. We moved because he would be payed more and we could have 3 weeks on vacation instead of 2.

looking forward from 20
not looking TOO forward
a huge modern building for senior citizens, UNCA campus, North Carolina Center for Creative Retirement, Reuter Center
best & worst
the best way to die would be smothered by golden retriever puppies.
the worst way to die would be washing your hair in the kitchen sink, reaching for the light switch & accidentally hitting the garbage disposal and scalping yourself.

grim reality
if you go out to dinner with some folks and order two big pizzas but only eat one and want to bring the other one home with you, but want to go for a couple drinks before going home, and don't want the onion pizza to sit in the car for that time, and you put the pizza on top of the hood of your car in a parking lot off the main street, and you expect to go back to it and find a) your pizza and/or b) a party of disney cartoon animals (bluebird, deer, hedgehog, etc) on your hood feasting on the pizza, you will be sorely disappointed.
