Thorn Bird said:small town up by huntsville...i also went to school in mobile. you know 'bama?
Coqui said:Well I went on a cruise who's port was in Mobile, and I have a friend who lives in Montgomery.
SpyderGST said:I was born in Atlanta, was moved to Bama when I was 4 and raised in Dothan. Now, I've somehow ended up back in Atlanta.
Thorn Bird said:yeah, that cruise thing is really new. i graduated and moved from mobile in late 2000, and it wasn't there then. of course.
does your friend like montgomery?
Coqui said:Yeah it's not exactly the most ideal place to dock for a cruise yet, but it's getting there. Of course I also happened to be there for Mardi Gras.
Yes my friend likes Montgomery.
Thorn Bird said:mobile's got beautiful potential and is a great location, but there's something haunted, dingy, and skanky about mobile. it's a black hole that sucks you in if you're not careful, yet doesn't let you go anywhere. a lot of stingy old money there. gives me the heeby-jeebies.
Sarcasmo said:Kick ass. We should all get together in an old Mobile cemetery on Halloween and commune with the dead or something.
Wait, that's probably not what you meant.
Thorn Bird said:well, joe cain, founding father of mardi gras, is buried there. i'm sure he'd enjoy a party! (did you know that mardi gras started in mobile, not new orleans?)
