Quote:Plasticman ... is Pittsburg really as depressing as they say? Is there a good punk scene there? and for that matter, is the rain really that bad in Oregon?First, yes, Pittsburgh is depressing. Never liked the town. It's....poor. The downtown (the Golden Triangle) is beautiful, but unless you're going to a bank, there's no reason to go there. The Strip is full of bars and clubs and is cool if you're of drinking age and disposition. Punk scene? I dunno. I don't much like or follow punk.
FTL's answer notwithstanding, I don't mind the rain in the Willamette Valley at all (2/3 of Oregon is desert, but no one lives there). It keeps everything green. It's never cold, so you just get used to being wet often. Of course, I've lived here for 20 years, so I've had TIME to get used to it. And yes, we have the best summers ANYWHERE!

Taking lack of motivation to a whole new level.
