Everyone thinks that Michigan City is located in Michigan. It's not, people! It's located in Indiana. It hugs the border to Michigan, but it's not IN Michigan. Originally, it did belong to Michigan, but because of some "border" lines, it was sold to Indiana.

First capital of the US here...I think the only city which had it's mayor arrested while he was a mayor for umm....what was it? I don't remember what exactly, but it was something stupid...

 

Mobile, Alabama, is right near me. It was going to be the first settlement in the U.S. by the spanish I think. They started building and a hurricane came through and destroyed everything( they really suck ). So, they thought they better go somewhere else and ended up at St. Augustine, Florida.

 

Hillary Clinton went to my high school for 3 years. Tony Schaumacher (sp), the driver for the Army top fuel dragster, grew up in the town next to mine. Harrison Ford went to my high school for all four years.

What else is there about Rochester... um...

- home of the "fast ferry" (a large floating money pit)
- not really the home of Dinosaur Bar-B-Que, but there is one here, and damn it's good!
- home of the Inner Loop, one of the world's most useless pieces of highway, which would make a great 2.2 mile racetrack (if only the city were that cool)
- it's the hometown of Philip Seymour Hoffman and his mother is a judge here
