20. I missed my baby...
I wanted to be closer to my daughter,so I moved to Boston for a couple of years. Now I'm back in Maine...a mere 15 miles from her:) Also,I went through a heartbreaking divorce from my Conch...so a geographical cure was in order. I really miss it sometimes though...sunset sails,diving,key limes and finger bananas off the trees,cafe con leche,fresh grouper with black beans and yellow rice,never having to dress up. Don't miss: palmetto bugs!

17. Braintree, Mass.


I lived near there as a kid (Hingham). I always pondered what images that name conjured up.

"Of course, in Alabama the Tuscaloosa. But that's completely irrelephant to what I'm talking about."

28. Yes, I know. :-)
It's NOT "Regeena"

I know this because Regina is the city where Doug was born.

34. Ulysses
Kansas.
Is that a town? 5474 people. Also, only 7159 for the county. I bet that would be a good place to retire. It is south and housing is probably cheap. OTOH, probably not alot of doctors around.
