I'm curious about it because the concepts seem good, but a) I'm wondering about the implementation and b) is there any residual weirdness from everything being under one corporate entity's control?
Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The important question is, does Raleigh have any decent comic book stores?

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
My major annoyance with Jacob was that he had seen the entire season of Dr. Who already, and he made sure that you knew it. It was very "I'm so-very-clever" to my mind and a bit condescending.
VERY much so. With a double-helping side order of "unnecessarily pretentious".

Oh, Cindy, my Mainer coworker has a UCC church in Durham that I think you'd like. Also, if you'd like to email or call me on the phone at some point, we can do that.

Punishingly Intricate
Good schools in North Raleigh, Cary is renowned for them. A realtor could tell you more. Raleigh had has such growth that they are going to mandatory year-round schools in some areas because they can't build schools fast enough to keep up with the kids.
My SiL's & nieces school just went year-round and they (esp. SiL) love it.

I miss the northeast like crazy down here - the weather, the shore, the landscape and trees. But it's a decent place to live, and lots cheaper than Boston.See this is what I'm thinking -- particularly the much cheaper than Boston. Scott's company is offering some good relocation deals and really pimping it, which says to me the jobs (with them) here are going to become few and far between. If it really is much cheaper, we'd likely be relatively well off.
On the other hand, it's nothing I've ever thought of doing before. I love it here. I am a homegirl. But then I think I probably love it here because it's where I've always lived. I just never had the wanderlust (as far as moving goes -- I do wish I had traveled more and intend to, one day). Scott's not even seriously considering it, but we started talking. I wondered if that was the area that people were pimping to Dana.
Hmmmmm.
Cary=Containment Area for Relocated YankeesHeh. That's probably where I'd belong.

I'm not sure if the Second Foundation is still open in Chapel Hill.

Liese, look up Jim Rouse and Columbia. Columbia is built somewhat around that model.

If this starts escalating from "Not really -- but what if" to actual "What if, no really, what if," I will.
Church is going to be hard. I love my UCC church, but it's really sort of unique. But I'd go postal in a Southern Baptist church.
