Peter Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 I would like to move into Anniston (Jennifer). Sorry, I could not resist.
IDBillzFan Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 It's a little known fact that people always used to say "I'm way out in the middle of Anniston, Alabama." That has since been changed to "I'm way out in the middle of Bum!@#$." And that you will be.

JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 I worked in Birmingham for 8 months back in '95. It's definitely a much slower pace down there. I found that people were very friendly, even to Yanks. The Alabama Gulf coast is an underrated gem, or at least it was back then. Not sure what Katrina did to the Alabama gulf coast. NASA has the US Space and Rocket Center up north in Huntsville which is also where Space Camp is - a very cool tour. Lots of cool stuff is a couple of hours away - Great Smokey Mountains, Nashville, Memphis, Pensacola/Tallahassee, Atlanta as has been mentioned.
