(10,000 posts)1. Actually, that's been the story of my time here in Omaha
Obviously, there are Dems in Omaha, but I live in a particularly elderly and conservative neighborhood.
For the most part, however, I still get along with my neighbors.

(43,891 posts)2. My OP was a bit simple. The movie takes on a lot of themes...
... female sexuality meets Leave It To Beaver. Suddenly everything is in color. Art and literature flourish. But racism, book burning, censorship follow. If you look close enough, there's a serpent and apple on a mural that gets painted. One of my favorite movies.
