What a good, and should be obvious point...I have never thought of that before. You are soo wise John. Big +1

Normally they don't release the winners until the ceremony, but Johnny Cougar let the cat out of the bag at a show.

Looks like there's a hip hop clothing store with 740 in the name. I'm not sure if 740 is one of the more influential area codes in rap.

It is pretty soul-killing, isn't it? And good analogy....Southern Surburbia. I can think of some places around San Antonio that look like that, or Dixie or Preston Highways, heading out of Louisville (and particulary Dixie Hwy between Fort Knox and Elizabethtown) Well, I mean, we are talking about roads named Dixie Highway here.

Cobra... COBRAAA!! Cobra... COBRAAA!!

Bah, they're all sick of those sensitive acoustic guys, the ones that learn all the same Sublime, Dave Matthews and O.A.R. songs. The girls caught on a few years back and realized those guys are only playing to get laid.

Every urban area needs a Mallmanac. Man, I love that word.

West Virginia has a lot of great ones. Just a sample: Acme Bolt 6 Cinco Bozoo Clearco Cyclone Hurricane (pronounced "Hurricun", seriously) Tornado Nitro Fireco Gypsy (should be renamed Roma to be PC) Junior Kermit Left Hand Looneyville Mabie Mace Man Mud Odd Pax Petroleum Pie Pickle Street (a city) Rig Speed Vulcan

This town has a distinct southern feel.

^ Haha, good point -- it looks like Super NES.

HAHA that kid in pic 5 totally ate it.

I just noticed the Isuzu Amigo (black SUV on High) in the rendering. Those were made back when SUVs were small, efficient, actually good off-road due to their small size and made purely for fun. Oh, how things have changed. edit: called a rendering a photo

Now that I think of it, Sarasota also has a large number of Columbusites. The west coast of Florida is has a lot of Midwesterners, while the east coast has many East Coasters. I-75 vs. I-95, I suppose.
