As do most armpits.

Though I can't see MA or IL being any better.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Let's just settle for next in line on those two states (though probably IL is worse than MA)...

I recall once posting a picture of a device to capture gas from Cows. Paging @TimT to find and link that one to this one.

If you were gay you would feel the same way. And girls have cooties ewww!!!

Or another grifter looking for his payday.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

and deal with excise tax on your vehicle? Parking tickets at 2:30 am (even NYC is not that bad)? Lousy snow removal? I still like this place but don't make it out to be what it's not.

The excise tax is less than the parking tickets you'd get in NYC.

The parking tickets are less than the keyed hood you'd get in NYC.

The snow removal is lousy. But NYC ain't that great either.

And the taxes! Way lower than NYC, NJ, or most other places frum ppl live.  State income tax is 5%.  No local income tax.  Sales tax is 6.25%. Property tax is 1% of assessed value (which from my very limited observations are about 2/3 of actual value), minus $2500 residential exemption--so on a million dollar house, figure assessed at 700 so tax is 7000 minus 2500 equals 4500 a year.)

Yeah. My exact same initial thought. But then I realized that I wouldn't be able to have my minyan, or for that matter any minyan at any random time. Probably wouldn't be able to do everything I am able to do here without even needing a car, so it's a no go.

You can too have a minyan at a random time.  As long add you've selected the correct random time
