Trivia:
The Roanoke Times is the best-read newspaper out of any other in the nation- New York Times, Chicago, L.A... we've got all those fuckers beat ;)
Roanoke is the nation's 2nd largest consumer of Dr. Pepper (NYC is the first, due to their population).
Roanoke is the number 1 city (in the 75,000-124,999 size) for internet connection.
Wrestler Tony Atlas - tag team partner of The Rock's father Rocky Johnson- is from Roanoke.
The Headquarters for Advance Auto Parts is in Roanoke.
Roanoke is the number 1 city for tree population (nature is always nice)
Entertainer Wayne Newton is from Roanoke.
My Local Opinion on...
Gossip: People around here worry about everyone else's business and what everyone else thinks too much. Worry about yourself.
Roads: You people need to learn how to drive. Figured out what that weird stick is, which is on the left side of your steering column? That's a turn signal . They're really great.
I'd like to meet:
I want absolutely everyone local to Roanoke to add this page. Spread the word- this is for all of us.
Roanoke Gay/Bi Group
For the Gay, Bi, Les, Trans, Curious, Uncertain, or just simply for those who dont force themselves to live according to the binary one-or-the-other gender-extremist roles that faceless society lays out for you to conform to :)
"Public Warning Against Bad Businesses" Forum
This is our opportunity to watch out for each other about places whom no one should have to deal with. All details are on that page. This is your chance to cripple a business who truly deserves it.
"Recommended Businesses" Forum
And to balance out the above, here is a forum for us to provide our positive experiences. We deal with jerks all day long... hopefully this one will help us at least get a break from all of that!
