Well, frankly Troll, if it were not for love of my sweetie and wife (the same person...) I would be off to several other places in the wink of an eye. New York ain't what it used to be. Once it was somewhat fun to live here. I think, given my druthers, I'd live in the South of France, I was tempted by the neolithic museums that were interested in my early hominid portrate sculptures, a serrious hobby of mine... choice 2, Quebec, choice 3. Wiltshire. Once the first choice would have been the west of Ireland, but things have changed there quite a bit. Unfortunately, Genie enjoys tormenting police officers on the witness stand, and does not look as though she is going to tire of her pastime soon. I think if we did choose to move NYPD would pay for the moving... ah well, maybe bush will be the final inducement for Genie to see that things would be better in greener pastures... New Hope NY is nice too, but a wee bit touresty - might be a good place for a band though...
