| #11 Thanks for waking that memory SH; we got married in Smalltown Michigan, and packed the 70 Torino Gt for Quonset Point RI in 1973. Our wedding night was a Holiday Inn in Toledo; Smalltown bride was infatuated w/ the Magic Fingers and used all my quarters……. Dont miss the M.F. But would like that Ford back. Still have the bridal unit. |

| #10 Lived there for 8 years my kids were born in Savannah, weird place When I first relocated a dude took me to a prestigious members only club, members are allowed to eat the top floor and members with guest can eat on another floor, women are only allowed on another floor. Watching the waiter standing between portraits Lee and Stonewall and promptly filling my tea after every sip, blew my mind |

| #1 Parallel reference: The 'Starlight Trailer Court' (mobile home park) is the starting point in "The Last StarFighter". (I saw the name, and it rang a bell.) |
