Stay away from Austin!
I heard on Marketplace this morning that the next season of MTV's The Real World will be taped in my old hometown of Austin, Texas. This is a very bad development. Every time some magazine (Money, National Geographic, etc.) or television show profiles the city another thousand boneheads move there, making it more crowded, more expensive, and less lovely. It used be cheap, cool, quiet, and clean. About 10 years ago it started looking and feeling like every other American city. And they keep building highways as if new roads have ever solved traffic problems. Now it actually has a all those chain stores and an alarming number of Republicans!
I don't live there any more but I feel for those who do.
STOP MOVING TO AUSTIN! THERE IS NOTHING THERE FOR YOU!
