I took the liberty of finding some of my quotes.

About Plum:

Quote:
Most of Plum Boro is good if you ask me unless I'm missing something. It's still fairly rural but it's always growing and continues to grow. In fact, many predict it will eventually be like a mini "Cranberry/Wexford" drawing what's left of Monroeville to Plum Boro
My Friendship correction:

Quote:
It is Penn Ave in Garfield. Not sure why everyone says Friendship when heading to Quiet Storm. Nonetheless, they aren't far from one another at all!
About New Ken

Quote:
I'm not sure what you heard about New Kensington but it's a good place depending on which side of the city you are on. The school is meh. Check out Lower Burrell, it's next door and much much more reputable with a good school district.
Quote:
I'm telling you, check out Lower Burrell or even New Kensington (near Lower Burrell NOT the river!!!!!)
What about Natrona Heights? That could really work for you too, but it's in Allegheny County, whereas New Ken and Lower Burrell are in westmoreland (much lower taxes).
About me:

Quote:
Well.. I would look in Westmorland County. I was born and raised in Lower Burrell, just up 28th and not far from Pittsburgh Mills. It's a very quiet and well kept town. In fact, someone on these very forums was transferred here and moved to Lower Burrell after looking at MANY other cities.

One more thing. If I'm not mistaken, I believe the large Turner Dairy Farm headquarters land is in Plum and Penn Hills. After doing a little bit of research I found this, too. Penn Hills has a total area of land that is 25% smaller than Plum Boro and has over 40% more residents than Plum Boro. Plum Boro has over 75km^2 of land (Cranberry has 60km^2 of land and plenty of it is still rural) with only 27,000 people (Cranberry has almost the same population and it's "new")!

You have Penn Hills, a city that still has plenty of rural land in it's own right and is much smaller than Plum with a much heavier population...

and yet why you attack me for accurately calling Plum "fairly rural" is beyond me.

How was I to know what you meant by your post?!?
Maybe, if you read the ENTIRE post, you would see that Boylocke was talking about the PEGASUS and how he frequents the place. While there is homosexuality in Texas, it is not as open as in places like Pittsburgh. That is what I was referring to....read the ENTIRE post, not just part of it next time.

Right, I did finally get it when boylocke revealed he was a he.

Even then it took me quiet a few hours before it came to me!

Thanks, boylocke. I saw Smoker's post and thought the same thing. And I figured out you are gay shortly after you joined.
I'm always the last to know. On the internet, I always get gender wrong.

No wonder you love the singles scene, boylocke!

Don't be silly, smoker! He lives downtown because he goes to school down there. The only reason you thought he was a she was because he talks about his boyfriend. You and I just assumed that meant he was a she.

Parts of New Kensington are nice. And boylocke accurately clarified that down the hill near the river is the area to avoid. Be nice! You keep forgetting you're a Pittsburgher!

Woo-hoo! I'm not the last to figure it out, and I thought sure I was! I realized boylocke was a he almost a week ago. Perhaps we should all sign our posts as follows:

id: bboy36win
name: jeff
gender: male
orientation: straight
