I moved down to Louisiana which is considered one of the happiest states to live in. (Do you think I might like having a good time?) I was trying to get a link but my search engine is acting up and keeps on sending me to bogus sites. So I just copied some of search results.

The ironic thing is I went to Ohio U for one reason and that simply was economics. It was the only place I could afford to go to and get my masters at the time, since I needed something in state with it's in state tuition. But I was determined to get my masters since it seemed like at the time the only people getting hired in geology had their masters. I was a very destitute student when I was in college and paid most of my own way the whole time I went. That was before there were a lot of grants or scholarships to be had. It was also before state supported 529's and other state incentive programs. O U was the only place willing to give me a teaching assistanceship while I worked on my Masters. I was thrilled to get it because I always felt the only way to really know if you know something is to teach it to others. The students will quickly find your weaknesses and force you to strengthen them otherwise you'll never get through the master program. By being a TA it help with my tuition and strengthen my knowledge of geology. A win win situation all around.
I moved to Louisiana for the same economic reason. I had a solid job offer there. It was that or Texas. I couldn't find a job in Ohio so I moved to were the jobs were. I liked Louisiana better than Houston Texas because of the traffic patterns. I had visited Houston enough to know I would not be happy with all that traffic congestion.
Once I've moved here I didn't want to become a damn Yankee. A damn Yankee is a person who has moved to the south from the north and then leaves to go back north. So I've stayed in Louisiana. They do know how to have a good time. I do love my Mardi gras parades and crawfish boils.
Needless to say I think the LA reputation is well earned, and don't have any other plans to live anywhere else.... well maybe in the summer I might go back north for a long visit. Today it reached 107 degrees, the hottest I've ever recalled being in.
I LOVE partying at OU when I visit my cousin. The local convenience stores just got in that new beer outta FL called "TauBu." I think it's 12% alcohol, so it packs a punch. I LIKED their page and won a t-shirt, woot! Facebook.com/TauBu
