There are probably a dozen or more towns/cities named Berlin throughout the US, including New York, Massachusetts and New Jersey. Not the most common town name, but still fairly popular. (I think Salem is up there among the most popular in the country, but most people only know about the infamous events that took place in Salem in Massachusetts. Salem in CT is actually a nice rural town)

Well I found my demographic now I need to draw a circle and ask myself what are the best job centers within 60 minutes or less of commute time. My commuter rule is an hour or less. I don't mind putting in a halls day work on a Saturday but I will not work on Sunday, first off I'm not in a field that requires to have to work on a Sunday.

I don't really need too much fancy stuff, I'm a simple kind of guy. I'm sure I'll go visit Manhattan and Boston but I'll most likely stay local, visit the orchards and historic landmarks of CT. Go over to West Point for an Army game, tinker around my house, hike the parks, that sort of thing.

I don't think NCAA football Saturdays are as big in the northeast so it will be a southern thing that I'll miss. Also pecan pie or a warm peach pie with a scoop of vanilla. God bless the state of Georgia.
