As a Greensboro native, I would like to assure you that we are not a town of freaks.
Those of you who watched tonight's American Idol may have come away with a skewed perspective of our fair city.

Oh yes!, we host all kinds of Northerners and weirdos here.
Helps make the little less normal feel good about themselves.
Kinda like walking aound the Wal-mart on a Saturday morning.

It's obviously a slam on everyone who shops at Wal*Mart.  _________________ "After four pieces of prime rib, the goose is stuffed." --Goose
