That's my home town. Great place to grow up. Excellent back roads to ride motorcycles.

Also made national news 6 - 8 months ago for the School stabbings..

I lived in PA too.

I grew up in PA too. Glad I made it out; never looked back.

You'll never see that from a cat.

Did PA get worse since the (19)80s or something?

I lived there for 19 years. As far as I know it has only improved. I don't mind being down-voted for having wanted to and being proud of moving as far as possible away from my "home" as I possibly could. It's all about adventure and challenging concepts; getting out of your comfort zones; it paid off nicely. I doubt I would have found one of the most confounding experiences of the Universe that a human can have if I had not begun challenging everything I was taught in such a closed-off, conservative place. I grew up close to Amish country! It actually took some willpower in order to start shedding and rebuilding a lot of ideas about the way thing's actually work as opposed to the ways the media tells one how it works.

I don't re(call/member) much of Amish, but a lot of old houses, big lands, snow, nature, etc. I only lived there for a couple years in the mid (19)80s.
