    One thing I notice whenever I drive through CT (other than 10,000 dead deer alongside the roads) is how much trash there is everywhere. I mean, even in really nice ritzy areas the roads are covered in loose garbage.

    Yup too!
    GE told Ct. to blow it out of their ass.
    Happens I live where GE had their corporate HQ.
    My town is losing beacoup tax revenue from this blunder.

    OK @DoubleRGirl , during your visit I recommend that you stay out of or, at a minimum use care if visiting: Harford, Bridgeport, New Haven, New London, Norwich, New Britain, Bristol, Torrington, Waterbury, Ansonia, Norwalk, Stamford, Meriden, Willimantic; Parts of New Milford, Danbury, Naugatuck, and a many more...

    You're good to go in Avon, Litchfield, Darien, New Canaan, Mystic. Please note that driving through the east part of the state is like a trip through 'Deliverance"

    Not so fast fella. There's certain criteria that need to be met. Move out and it'll go on the list...:D

    Not gonna happen any time soon. School system in Brookfield is way better than the surrounding towns (Danbury and Bethel), so that was one of the reasons we moved out of Danbury, but when we had kids.

    Never had any issues there, then again I don't travel the area in general..just Foxwoods. Occasionally Mohegan but that's just if I'm going to a show.

    Well Boys & Gal, seeing how I'm one of the few here at work today, I need to get back to doing something as there's fewer around to absorb my time wasting. Got to run a few pieces of test equipment as it appears most of the production staff decided to take today off. BTW, I'll be at the MIL's tomorrow through Saturday in (drum roll) Wilkes-Barre PA. Soooo, please help a fellow save his sanity by keeping me company...
