1. I know it's the home of predatory lenders, but I really like Wilmington.
I was only there once, but it had a nice feel to it.

6. The originator of this thread is from a state that elected Jesse Helms FIVE TIMES
Let's leave elected officials out of state evaluations ok?

11. There's good people in South Carolina but they're all dead
I apologize to any living South Carolinians that are offended. That's a Billie Joe Shaver line about Lubbock that I couldn't resist stealing.

8. Delaware - Sucks way less then Mississippi
Delaware, the back door to the Philadelphia Airport. Delaware, where tolls are king.

I was stationed in Philadelphia in the 80's and we went to a football game, Delaware vs Arkansas State in 86 or 87. It was a championship of some kind. Gannon was the BlueHen QB. Had a great time but some miscreant(s) stole the Arkansas tags off my car.

Edited on Thu Jun-07-07 01:50 PM by Blue_Tires
and i'm trying to think of what else...i've driven through the state a bunch of times... (i must say that exorbitant toll for the privilege of driving 15 miles through the state is a scam)

28. I lived in Newark for a year and enjoyed it.
Wilmington is a beautiful city, though and I wouldn't mind living there.
