Ever Felt Conflicted About Your Hometown?
Used to think Pierre, South Dakota where I am from was boring but now that I have lived in the hell hole known as Kansas, I am loving being back home. Ever felt like that?

I just feel a bit sad that the town I grew up in seems to have lost its way. All the optimism of the sixties, and even seventies, has gone. Nothing broken ever seems to get fixed, I see the same holes in the pavement every time I visit. The council seems hellbent on discouraging people from visiting the town centre by making it expensive to park a car and by doing nothing to make the main street attractive while at the same time encouraging the creation of soulless shopping parks on the outskirts.
