[QUOTE=sleepygeckos;1803079]Call me cynical, but in Junior High I'd be thinking more about where the college/trade school is I'm hoping to get into someday or the state I'd be more likely to get a job in instead of where I can move to have reptiles. Seriously, the job market still is not going to be recovered by then no matter what people think. [QUOTE]

haha. This is good, down to earth advice, but I'll be honest, when I was in Jr. High, the economy/higher education was not on my radar at all, despite being a little more into current events than your average 7th grader. That's what high school is for That said, the laws are always subject to change. Also subject to change is your life direction. In jr. high I was gung ho Los Angeles; by 20 I wound up in Kansas instead. Boy I would've been awfully depressed if I'd known that then, though.

Anyway, me & mine considered Ft Collins, Colorado ourselves not too long ago, it's sunny but winters are still cold.
