Wyoming? What do you think about Wyoming? -

Is Wyoming a good place, bad place... Stuff like that! And please put the city and/or state you live in! No other personal info needed! Just the city and/or state!

I live in Fort Collins, CO, which is about 35 miles south of Cheyenne, WY. From what I have seen, it is a great place if you like the small town, outdoorsy feel. There aren t many people, and most of the state is still pretty unspoiled as far as nature goes. There is some beautiful scenery, but just be prepared to drive a long way if you want to do some city-style shopping. Most of the people that shop at our large stores here have driven down from Wyoming.

I live in Ft Collins, CO as well, but I have family in Wyoming and Montana and I ve been a lotBasically, Wyoming is empty. Windy and empty. Very few people, very few things at all in most of the state. But don t get me wrong, the Tetons, Jackson Hole, and Yellowstone are some of the most amazing places in the world. I would LOVE to live there. But 85% of the state is just an empty, cold, shrub desert with some pronghorn antelope.

I live in Oklahoma and I have been to Wyoming several times and spent about six months there in total. I ve been all across the southern and western part. There are some very nice isolated places in northwestern Wyoming. Besides Yellowstone and the Tetons the Bridger Teton National Forest near Big Piney is very nice. And so is the Shoshone west of Cody. The Big Horns the Winds and the Snowies are nice areas. But all that amount to a relatively very small part of Wyoming. Most of the rest of it is baron and desolate. The wind blows constantly 65 miles an hour all day long many days. There are no trees in most of it. Its high desert. Very few people there and very little to do unless you like to drink. Bars in every town, at least one is named Cowboy. Or if you are into outdoor sports. Flaming Gorge is a nice place to fish and so is Fontenelle and of course the Green River and other places. It is miles and miles between towns. In the biggest towns there are the bare necessities and not much more. Winters are very harsh. The people are different. The economy revolves around mining, oil and gas, tourism, sheep and cattle. Those industries draw a pretty transient population and it can be a rough crowd. Brokeback Mountain was pretty stereotypical of Wyoming. There is a lot of government land in Wyoming and they herd a lot of sheep in the southern part and cattle in the northern and eastern part.

What are some websites that offer concert listings for Wash., D.C.? -

Can you drive alone in a car if you only have a permit in Washington, USA and Oregon, USA? -

No. A learner s permit requires a C-class minimum licensed driver of at least 21 years to be in the front seat beside you whenever you are driving the vehicle on a public street or, in Oregon, on any private street open to the public, like mall parking lots.

No washington you have to have a driver within the car of your same family that has been driving for at least 5 yearsduh

Where is a nice area to live in Chicago? -

I m graduating soon, I really want to move to Chicago. Where is a safe place for a single girl to live?

Depending on your money, I would suggest Lincoln Park or Lakeview. Look for a building with a doorman and close to public transportation. If you can afford it, look at the buildings at 1350 and 1360 Lakeshore Drive. Just north is an older building that has rental condos. Also along Dearboorn Street.

Depends on your lifestyle really. If safety is your main concern go to the below website, it ranks neighborhoods by crimes reported and is updated daily I believe. http://chicago.everyblock.com/crime/locations/neighborhoods/The best neighborhood on the north side is Edison Park, and on the south side it s a tie between Mt. Greenwood and Garfield Ridge.Good luck!

The best places are expensive, the North Shore, Edgebrook, Sauganash. Lakeview is not bad, Wicker Park is okay. I can t say that any place is entirely safe for a single girl to live.

there is no safe place for a single girl to live anywhere in the world. take a roommate. all the gay folk will say north side because that s all they know and they are not ashamed of that.

Almost all the suburbs are nice, if you wanna move to the city, live in the north side

The northern suburbs are pretty safe. Cary/Crystal lake/McHenry area

Is it legal to own a monkey in new york? -

if so, any more details on owning one

Do NOT own a monkey regardless of its legality... I hate how people want a monkey because they are so cute and funny ... the reality is they are wild animals (not like dogs and cats which are domesticated)... they get ripped away from a life in the wild (where they are happy and belong) and often times ripped away from their mothers as babies... many many many monkeys end up with nervous and mental disorders because of this... some people will have a monkey for 15 years and it s their baby and it attacks them and just snaps... it s so sad... please don t contribute to a sick practice like that...

No, it is NOT legal to own a monkey. Check out the following like that specifies that monkeys cannot be sold or kept as pets in NYC:http://www.nyc.gov/apps/311/allServices.��

New York has laws against owning any wild animal, and I can guarantee it will be considered a wild animal if it goes haywire and harms someone. Additionally, you are exposed to any number of serious transmissible diseases from monkeys, some of which kill.The ASPCA can probably tell you whether there are specific statues banning monkeys, but regardless, you will be responsible for any havoc your monkey causes. Try a more trainable pet.

Well, sure, it s legal to own a monkey in New York City, it s just not legal to keep it here.So, in other words, if you owned a monkey that lived somewhere else, that would be fine, but if you want to keep a monkey in a New York City apartment, no, sorry, that s illegal, and you WILL get caught, too!Good luck!

Why dont you own a dog instead and if you cannot find a good Dog, tame me!
