The poll shows 19-5 showing same or better predictions for the area.
And people say the Forum is negative?

that's assuming that "the same as the present" in the poll is a positive feedback, which I can't answer that, but I'm sure the rest of you can.

Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.
- Henry David Thoreau 1817-1862
A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower 1890-1969

Good point, CC, but considering the loss of the packing plant, and the state of the rest of the border counties in Minnesota, I will take "same" as a GOOD thing.

There are five hundred and fifty million
firearms in worldwide circulation.
That's one firearm for every twelve
people on the planet.
The only question is, how do we arm
the other eleven?

As most of you frequent forum readers know, I recently moved back here after being away for 20 years. I was very fortunate to have a "back up plan" because I was unable to find a job that would not only pay me a decent wage but really something that I was qualified for. Yeah, Albert Lea is not a hot bed for nightlife but if you do have a family and are willing to sacrafice somewhat, it is a nice place to raise a family. Small business is king(with a few exceptions). That is what keeps the economy going. I do my best to purchase my goods from the local folks. I will say this, until the "good ole boys" are gone, the city will not grow. I have always thought Albert Lea is kinda like a bubble, no one gets in and no one gets out.

Repoman, Fresno and Mrs D's whatever, the discussion was serious and meaningful until you three posters put your hand to keypad. Who cares?
