Memphis ranks third on the current Forbes list of most miserable cities in U.S. for 2010, pretty select company.

I haven't seen the actual rankings. What fine city moved ahead of (or I guess actually behind on this kind of list) Memphis? Thinking about heading over to their board and talking some smack.

Cleveland, Oh., ranked number one as the most miserable city, followed by Stockton, Ca., and Detroit followed Memphis in fourth place.

Thanks Gulliver. Just the usual suspects I see. No good to talk smack on their boards. We recurring miserables have to stick together.

Default Detroit behine us?

I still cant believe Detroit is behind us? Who in their right mind would want to move to Detroit ? Granted the federal government is trying to bail out the auto industry, but then again you do have the Lions

Man, this really blows. We always make the top of lists for bad stuff. Memphis is its own self-fulfilling prophecy. Might as well be #1. While they're at it they should put us at the top of the most incompetent drivers' list. I think I may have an aneurysm if I get stuck behind another person who has to think while they drive.
