just found out I live in the saddest city in the United States
according to Mens Health magazine.

sunny St. Petersburg Florida has lost its glow, its' ambience and is now on a slow road to self medication with a

side dose of high unemployment.

When I moved here 34 years ago, I was so happy to be out of Reading Pennsylvania you could see my smile from space,

but, alas, no more.

and I hate to mention it, but now that the holiday season is on the way and starting to bloom, the Sunshine Skyway

Bridge is getting more than its fair share of one way travelers too.:cry:

5. Hoping you don't live there either. Makes Delaware such a better place to live

:D

A state that beginning of 2012 will recognize civil unions, medical marijuana, has low property taxes, no sales taxes and an environmentally friendly blue governor that put a stop to fracking along the Delaware River. Oh and we're solidly blue for years to come with a 2-1 ration of Democrats to Republicans.

I'm glad my state is devoid of hateful people like you

How can any city with "Beach" in its name be sad?

Life is a Beach...
