It always get's me how some people with too much money and lots of cool toys like big fancy boats and high dollar condos etc. and they don't even know how to play with the stuff properly. Some folks got lots a money and degrees in this and that, but they never attended the school of common sense and how to lightin up and live a little and have some fun. Well on that note I'm gonna take my 48 year old butt and get my groove on in Atlanta at the ACDC show, and for everybody else out there who likes to rock and roll " I Salute You"

They need a new crystal ball

If you like independent bars and restaurants ,you will love downtown Mobile. And be sure to hit up Callaghans in the Oakleigh Historic District. We came down to Mobile on a lark from Chicago. Had a great time, went back to Chicago, put our house on the market and after 5 mos on the market, we now live in Mobile. We have never met so many friendly people. We found a beautiful home in Dauphin Way, which is between midtown and downtown. The future looks great for Mobile.

Mobiles weather is awful. Its sooo humid and it rains every afternoon. The crime is horrible. El paso, tx has a lower crime rate (lower murder, robbery,burglury rate) the U.S. average is 320 and mobile, is 513!!! They have cities with almost a million people with lower crime rate than that. (el paso 261) for such a small place it has way too much crime going on. Just into 2 months of this year, their has been 6 murders. Every morning I watch the news and something is always going on. Living Daphne is so much better, but again, it will only be a matter of time when mobiles crime overflows into daphne. The best thing about mobile is that its close to pensacola, which is nice to visit during the summer.

Well Baldwin County is really doomed because if you watch the news Pensacola is no better than Mobile,lol....Baldwin is surrounded by two third world countries.


Digging threads from the grave is common I guess.

As I type this here in Mobile, it is 72 degrees and it has been in the seventies everyday for the past 3 weeks. Not too bad, eh?

Crime is a problem in every major city. Mobile is not an exception. But, there are exceedingly safe areas of Mobile. One just needs to be diligent in their decision to be at some place. Also, Pensacola is experiencing this same crime wave, so if you're biased about this now is the time to come clean.

Besides, Pensacola has the same weather as Mobile in the summer. Are you just determined to flame?
