Dont post your town name, unless its like a huge city. (NYC, BOSTON, SAN FRAN, LA. ETC)

Well Snapple originated from my town. =]

I guess thats why all our school sells is snapple?

I live in Etobicoke, Toronto, Canada. A cool fact? I don't know. Most people butcher the pronunciation. And that's a fact. Haha.

Because I don't like Catholic schools.
And I don't like overcrowded schools either. I had the choice of going to either the Cardozo DaVinci program or York and I chose York 'cause it only has 406 kids, while Cardozo has nearly 4,000. St. Francis has about the same amount of kids as 'Dozo.

Besides, the SSHSs are better than any other schools in NYC, haha.

I didn't say all of it was, some of the suburb scenes were shot in my town in the barber shop, some houses and one of the churches here, andnicholas cage's character,from what I herd was from the suburbs, I'm 100% sure about that becuase I refuse to watch the movie, but it is true. plus movies aren't always shot in thier "setting" can't always assume that, yea I know world trade center, but ny city doesn't have the suburbs.

My HOMEtown: it's the only place in the world where a rose festival is held. The roses that grow there are, I think, the only one of their kind; a special type, that was cultivated in our country after many years of production and development. We even choose a Queen Rose every year :) It's the center of the biggest production of rose oil in the world.

Pretty awesome for such a small town. It's commonly known as "the valley of roses"..

Hmm, well I looked up my town/city on wikipedia and it turns out that Aly and AJ Michalka were born here. I don't know if they still do though. And also Daryl and Evan Sabara(the spy kid...) go to my school. They're pretty chill. My town is pretty boring though...

- It would take 288 years for one person to spend one night in every hotel room in Las Vegas.
- It's against the law to pawn your dentures in Las Vegas.
- Shrimp consumption in Las Vegas is more than 60,000 pounds a day. That's higher than the rest of the country combined and adds up to 22 million pounds per year.
- Las Vegas has the highest number of unlisted phone numbers of any U.S. city.
- Elvis and Priscilla Presley were married at the original Aladdin hotel.

Lol, had to put that last one in there. Elvis and Vegas just go together, hand in hand. rolleyes.gif
