...what city would you be and why.
Me?
Today I feel like Buenos Aires; cerebral, intriguing but financially slippery.
And you? |

Funny--before I even read this post--when I just saw the title and thought, "hmmm, interesting..."--I thought I'd want to be Buenos Aires.
Either that or San Francisco, but I suppose I should be a bit more exotic and get out of my home state.
Or maybe Prague. Are we allowed to be three cities?

I want Prague, too. Shall we share?
It's the one place on earth I've ever been homesick for, in my 47 years. |

What can I say? I'm a teacher!

My humblest apologies for going off-topic, but Glenski's post reminded me of another narrowly averted weird city name. There was a town in California a while back that was considering changing its name to Got Milk? to get funding from the... whatever it's called... milk department/milk board/national council of milkers. In the end they voted against the change.
