Great people, BEAUTIFUL scenery/trees/lakes, amazing autumns, great outdoors/fishing, booming tech scene, beautiful weather, beautiful women, easy access to Indiana, not too far from Chicago, a few hours drive to Detroit metro or Columbus... seems like the perfect place for me. Also a purple state where my vote will actually count (provided there is no fraud like 2020, of course).

Too bad ChumpDumper will forever remain an "Alleged Michigander", tbh. :cry But as for me? I'm gonna make it happen this spring. I'm FINALLY going to get the fuck out of Texas, once and for all.

Back in the 90s - and the last time I ever ate Arby's - the only one I knew of was on Culebra near Tezel. Can't remember if it's where the Wendy's is now, but it was around that area. Props to Arby's for finally making it though.

Yeah...the roast beef isn't a pretty sandwich. But if you drench it in Arby's Sauce, it's good.

Off the top of my head, the sandwiches that I've had that have been good were the Chicken Cordon Bleu and the turkey sandwiches on the grain bread.
Jalapeno poppers with some kind of jelly sauce.

IDK...of the fast food restaurants, they have to be near the top in terms of taste. Regardless of what you might be eating.

I don't give a fuck what their operating expenses are. I have a hard time justifying just the employee hours vs. what they sell.
It's fucking lunchtime and there might be 3 customers. And they've got 3 employees that I can see. Maybe one more in the back. For them to make it, that almost can't be roast beef.

Also a damn shame that I was once the greatest high school musician in all of Northside ISD and now my fingers wilt under pressure when even trying to perform a basic solo these days. :( 3 years of college with tons of newfound sex, drunken raging parties and pomping raves but no guitar practice will do that to ya.

I did appreciate the Music Practice buildings that UNT offered free to anyone on campus. Anyone could just play and practice piano for free. I ended up getting better at piano but had no access to my guitars, so that suffered quite a lot.

Rusted cars? Not if you have a nice garage...

North is beautiful. Fall foliage, lovely snowy winters, crisp springs, and not oppressively hot summers.

Florida? It's hot and sticky all year long, you can't open your window at night because the low temp is 79 with a heat index of 90, and you never know when (not if) the next hurricane will reduce your livelihood to a pile of wet sticks and debris.

California? The same sentence about Florida hurricanes applies to California earthquakes; it's a matter of when, not if. The weather is really nice if you live near the coast. If you live further east you might as well just live in Texas because it's hot and humid and you still have to pay 13.3% state income tax regardless of what part of CA you live in. Everything is expensive and you have ridiculous laws like no plastic bags or straws. I couldn't get used to it.

I never played drummers but drummers were always sort of at a premium at my high school. Tons of guitarists, though I was the best. A good handful of bassists and as far as singing, everyone had their own voice. But drummers? They could pick and choose what band(s) and gig(s) to play in. They were premium cars on the lot. I always had a hard time replacing drummers in my various bands in HS

As far as strings, they don't just break unless you fuck them up by being an idiot by tuning too fast or bending way too hard etc. I've never had one break without me doing something fucking stupid.

I play a ton on my acoustic in E-standard tuning (normal tuning) and haven't lost a string yet and I've had that guitar for over a decade. It was a very expensive Fender. Worth every penny.

I've had a few strings break on my electric guitars when tuning back up from down tuning or trying to up-tune (big mistake). I ended up replacing all 6 strings and the sound quality went down so had to replace them again. It was a bummer because the original strings sounded best, especially when down tuning. The current strings on my metallic blue squier straticaster only really work for heavy metal w/distortions. I do have amps but sometimes I like to play electric on clean mode too. It's whatever. But for day to day use, especially in quarantine, I use my ole reliable fender acoustic.

Yeah, the strings don't sound perfectly "new". But with proper tuning, they sound good enough for my standards. When I'm playing songs in a different key with a capo, the difference between older and newer strings is even less noticeable.

On that note. I'm a long distance driver; rarely go over 78MPH except for going 90 in South Dakota because I could.

But yeah, when a trailer flinged out a chunk of metal junk which popped my right front tire, in eastern Louisiana near the Mississippi Delta, just a few months ago in mid October... Columbus Day in fact... I had to pay a guy $75 to change the tire to a donut. An additional $85 at a Walmart in Jackson, MS for the new tire. (Indian company did end up re-imbursing me for that, dollar for dollar.) 'Twas a bad little situation. But not the worst thing that happened to me on that expedition trip around the eastern half of the USA.
