Stockton is Moving Up; Now With Video

Last year, Stockton was the most miserable city in America according to Forbes. Well, that statement is true no longer. Now Stockton is only the second most miserable city in America. Wooohooo. And the city's government is working hard to give it a makeover. Peep the video.


Look, I love Stockton. It's my home, and it always will be deep down. It's where the people I care about the most are, it's where my youth was spent, it's a place I will always fondly look back upon. Absent extenuating circumstances, I'm never going back, but that's not the point. I really never thought it was that bad, but then again when I was home my dad's car was broken into while in the driveway and no one was really in shock (particularly because my car had once been broken into 3 times (once in the driveway), and his car had previously been broken into in the driveway and in front of the house.

So yeah, Stockton kind of is a dump, but it's my dump. And sometimes, I miss it terribly.
