illone Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 What type of work do you do, ghost? My business is expanding and I'm in the market for help. PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoony Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 There are only two things I hear about Iowa: 1. That it gets really hot there in the summer... like Africa-type hot. Bill Bryson said about growing up in Iowa... "by the end of July it gets so hot that even the flys lay on their backs and quitely gasp for air" 2. and that High School Football is a religion. I had a friend that used to drive thru Iowa quite a bit. Apparently there was absolutely nothing but farms for hundreds of miles... and the ONLY thing on the radio was HS Football. Either a live-broadcast, taped broadcast, call in shows, etc. Good luck Ghost. Sorry to hear about you being laid off but it sounds like you're not too dissapointed. So maybe this will be a blessing in disguise. + you're a smart guy... you'll land on your feet. ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjcdaman Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 There are only two things I hear about Iowa: There are only two things I hear about the backwoods of Tennessee: 1. zoony lives there. 2. There ain't **** to do. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 Nothin' wrong with Iowa. Unless you think low crime rate, low rents and property prices and reasonable distance to Chitown, BIg Sky country and the East Coast is a bad thing...and it might be quite temporary.

Jumbo Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Iowa has nice parks and pretty girls. Iowa's close to Kansas and the Kansas City area has some real pretty girls, though they run a bit religious. Nick, with your sense of style and your intellect, life will continue to be a full-meal deal. Embrace the adventure. We'll send best wishes and good luck and you'll need to keep us posted, mi amigo.

CHUBAKAH Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Nothin' wrong with Iowa. Unless you think low crime rate, low rents and property prices and reasonable distance to Chitown, BIg Sky country and the East Coast is a bad thing...and it might be quite temporary. Don't forget, almost No work. I researched that area about a year and a half ago. Took a trip there even to look at homes. The job market was one of the worst in the entire country at that time. Just be forewarned. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cdowwe Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Good luck Ghost. Keep heading east if you need to, Cincinnati is great. We have humid Summers and Falls, and horrible Winters and Springs, horrible place for singles, and bad race relations. Oh wait, stay away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Pimp Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Take all the resources that you have left and start up your own biz. This could be the best thing that could have happened to you. I met a woman at the airport once. She lost her marketing job. She brought a blind cleaning kit. Now she making over 10 grand a week cleaning blinds. Head to Iowa with a plan. When you get discouraged. Listen to TI song motavation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stophovr6 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Also, lots and lots and lots of ****ty rainy days. That, I can't deny. Although I'd call them drizzly days. New york still gets more actual percipitation on the year. On the otherhand, I do know that I won't get skin cancer living here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
