The safest but most expensive is Downtown Chicago. By most expensive, I mean most who live there earn 80k plus a year to afford the cost of living. Stay as far away from Harvey and Gary as possible. There aren’t jobs there. They are notorious for being bad neighborhoods. My family years left Gary for  Read more »

Depends on what position you’re looking at. If you’re looking at package handler, then no, you don’t need experience. If you’re looking at management at one of the facilities or hubs, then you need experience. Since you asked about Memphis and are wondering about Corporate, than you’d need experience and a college degree.  Good time  Read more »

I’d discuss some of the most important items they have on display there, with a paragraph (or two) on each, including: –The Wright Brothers Flyer (the first airplane) –The Spirit of St. Louis (the first airplane to be piloted solo across the Atlantic) –The Apollo 11 Moon Capsule (in which the first astronauts to land  Read more »

You know, I live in NYC, and I read questions like yours from time to time.  I saw these questions in a different light just yesterday, when I saw a bunch of teen-aged tourists who were dressed in “chic” outfits goofing around in the ladies room in Manhattan. They were wearing clothes that were WAY  Read more »

I’m really hoping you didn’t choose Cal State Northridge (NOT UC Northridge) because you thought you could be an actor. SoCal is very hard to describe. It is unlike anything you have seen before. There is no central hub (like a downtown), with suburbs circling around it. It is one solid mass of urban and  Read more »

If you’re thinking of moving here to be close to all your “auditions”, think again. Production occurs ALL OVER SoCal. Auditions can be (and are) anywhere. So your question really is moot. The answer to this really lies in the answer to the question, “Where do you work”? It’s not good at all to live  Read more »

Hi. I’d figure at least $40 a day. I know that sounds like a lot if you’re going to eat at McDonald’s every day. But you probably won’t eat at McDonald’s for every meal, right? So, even if you stay at modest restaurants, everything costs more in NY. It can be hard to get a  Read more »

Harmony, rather than try to quantify your answer which can be challenged and refuted by a non scientific sample, start your speech by suggesting that when compared to other islands bordering states in the United States not many people have ever heard of Catalina Island! Then tell everyone where it is, how one gets there,  Read more »

“Chicago IL” and “Chicago Express” are both the same place located at 630 W Harrison St. The others have like one or two buses a day stopping there. (“Union Station” and “Amtrak(e)” are the same place a couple of blocks away from the “Chicago IL” station.) In any case, you will want to go to  Read more »

Santa Barbara. There are lots of things to do there: Parks, the beach, Santa Barbara Mission, State Street, and more. Santa Maria has nothing even close to that.  I’m somewhat tempted to say “duh”, but seeing that you’re from Canada, I’ll cut you a break. It’s not even close.  If you have little ones, there’s  Read more »

Geez….why are there so many lame answers today? I live in Brooklyn, so I can tell you where in Brooklyn. There are neighborhoods in Brooklyn that are safe, family oriented, but a little further from Manhattan and not as chic as some of the hot Brooklyn neighborhoods. The trade of is cheaper rent. I would  Read more »

OK so they are cities with a similar population size. London is way cleaner, has way more history, green spaces, culture, fashion, more influence, more intelligence, surrounding countryside (in a much smaller country) better restaurants, better infrastructure……… you name it. A far more superior well rounded city. NYC on the other hand is a relativly  Read more »

Well, normally nightclubs are wonderful places for you to go. You know, Chicago has some really nice 18 and over clubs and bars. Here, I can recommend you a few 18+ nightclubs in Chicago. 1- Club Volcan would be your best bet. It’s situated at 26th and Kedzie. If you’ll drive, don’t worry. They got  Read more »

My friend, Cambridge, MA is located about 215 miles (346km) northeast of New York City. It is is four hour drive from the Big Apple. Now, if you don’t want to drive from NYC to Cambridge, you can still get there by train via Boston. You can take Amtrak from New York Penn Station to  Read more »

Boston is a city and you coincidentally only visited the wealthy parts, even in southie which is a neighborhood of boston there a re some really sketchy areas. Also dorchester, mattapan, jamaica plan, and especially roxbury, if you visited those areas you’d change your mind, to give you an idea that would be like visitng  Read more »

I went with my step-cousin-in-law and I HAD THE BEST TIME EVER!!!!! I tried to scare the scary people and I would like go up to them say hi, and they would try to scare me but I would be pretending to talk on the phone at the same time and I was all like,  Read more »

It was a very complicated engineering feat, but it included the following actions: 1. Building a set of locks and water control mechanisms where the Chicago River meets Lake Michigan. 2. Building some canals south of the city 3. Connecting parts of the Chicago River to the canals and rivers southwest of the city 4.  Read more »

I just read an article where a couple got away from society for four years because George Bush had been elected. They lived on public lands in Northern Montana that were not reachable by care or 4×4. They had to hike in for three days and the starting point could only be reached by a  Read more »

Look, here is the thing…Las Vegas is known as a place you can do anything LEGAL, and not have to worry about getting hammered for it. Gambling, drinking, as long as you do not drive, and partying are all accepted forms of adult entertainment, and encouraged. Drugs, and hookers are not legal, do them, and  Read more »

Some of the areas you mention are too vague. Flatiron district is about 23rd street and 5th avenue. It is not filled with skyscrapers all over the place like midtown. It may have some new highrise buildings but for the most part buildings vary from about 5 flights to maybe 15. It’s a little bit  Read more »
