How quickly the word, "racist" comes into play when it wasn't even inferred. But always good for self-imposed and generated anger Sad!

Not complaining about drivers. Complaining about drivers who complain about drivers when they can't drive either. I'm pretty laid back and love new places people and things. I doubt I'll move and talk about things being better anywhere. Man CA was so great there were no jobs and the 7 of us lived in our van. I really don't see that happening. LOL I want to move to find something better not compare how great where i've been was to where I am. If it was so great I wouldn't have left, right? Right!

Having read his post I fail to see what you are refering to. He simply said that that be a good neighbor and you get along better than all the native white population......

HA HA I like that one, ozarksboy. Except for the "work hard and pay your bills" part, I don't do any of that!

To the OP: there are lots of mixed race kids these days. I doubt if anyone will even notice.

Also the dirving in springfield is something to be desired. why do they drive so fast on those roads. dont they know the speed limit. wholly mackeral. not trying to start something but I read what I read.

Goodness! Why are you moving here?

If you came from KC via Hwy 13, that's always been known to be a bad route. Elsewhere I've found drivers to be slow, if anything (but we're rural) and unfailingly polite and considerate.

I always go 70 to 65. I had an idea to move after visiting. I am divorced and decided to move. but after driving thru traffic and staying in some of these motels I may go elsewhere. whats the best place to stay. also whats wrong with being polite as long as you undertstand the language. Thats a problem whith a few motels around there. may wind up in Branson. at least theres something to look at besides traffic.
