I am new to the south and new to the concept of Nascar. I tried watching a few races but found it difficult to grasp the attraction. Can someone please help me "get" Nascar? What is the point? Aren't all the cars built indentically?

Grammar/spelling doesn't appy on the internet. ur a n00b till u mastah teh l33t sp34k. w00t! B)

classic!!!

agreed. it is also worth noting that latin gangs are FAR more organized. MS-13 for example loosely associated with revolutionary groups in El Salvador.

It's a blend of modern tech-metal (polyrythms, syncopation, odd time signatures, phrase writing) and old school death metal; all original stuff.

I hope that isn't the case. I am in a local band and we practice in the University Area (right near University City Blvd and Mallard Creek Church). On a GOOD day it takes me 35 minutes to get there. I can get to work (uptown) in less time that it takes me to get to the University area. I think anything west of Statesville should be considered it's own area.

I recently relocated here to Charlotte from upstate NY (Rochester). I have lived in a number of places and Charlotte is by far the best place I have ever lived. I grew up in the suburbs of DC (Reston, VA), then moved to Manhattan (like so many suburban DC kids who want to see a "real" city). Then from there moved to Philly for a while, then Chicago, then Rochester, and now Charlotte. I'm older now (26 yrs old may not seem old to some but it's old to me lol) and have 2 children so I thought it was time to settle down. After spending all those winters in Chicago and then the brutal tundra they call upstate NY, I knew that no matter what city I moved to, it HAD to be in the south as I cannot take anymore snow. Yes I realize it snows in Charlotte, but coming from Rochester where the winter last 9 months and snow is measured in feet, I can deal with an inch of snow here or there B) . I must say that I LOVE Charlotte. It has such an incredible climate, and so many jobs!! I am a software engineer at Duke now (in the old Wachovia building on 400 s tryon). I also like the fact that there is so much development going on in Charlotte, everything feels like it was built within the last 15 years; which is alot like home for me considering that most of northern VA was indeed built within the last 15 years. I thought I'd give a little bio before as this is my first post. Anywho, onto the question I purchased a home in north Charlotte right near where Harris Blvd meets Mt-Holley - Huntersville Rd. It is a stone's throw so to speak from the new Northlake Mall due to open in September. Is there a general name for that area?? When I tell people I live near Northlake Mall most will simply give a blank stare as though I'm speaking greek. Will this area simply pick up the knickname "Northlake" (such as Southpark or University)?? My guess is that most of this land was annexed by the city not too long ago and was probably unincorporated for many years. I can see the "Charlotte city limits" sign right up the street on Mt-Holley-Huntersville Rd. I was reading about the proposed North Corridor commuter rail (http://www.charmeck.org/Departments/CATS/Rapid+Transit+Planning/North+Corridor/Home.htm) that will have a station right off of exit 18 on I-77 so I would imagine that this area will become much more populated within the next 5 years.
