My worry is a black man will get away with murder today in the Detroit area due to his speed.

Damn you Micheal Vick !!!

So are you trading in that "Miami Ambulance" for something a little less showy then?

I totally agree. If you were to mail a letter to us, it would go to Richmond, VA 23233. However, technically we live in Henrico County, NOT the City of Richmond, which is a separate municipality. Mark and I are fortunate enough to live in Richmond's West End, which is a bit more upscale and new. That's not to say that we don't get crime out here; we do. But if you included the counties surrounding the City of Richmond -- Henrico and Chesterfield -- I doubt we'd be #5 on the list.

You should try a pair of bifocals! A cushion would just obstruct your vision...

Anyway, I'm not surprised about Cary. One factoid about the place that'll give you an idea of the town is that Martha Stewart is designing some houses in Cary :rolleyes: :D
